More Details

Your South Africa getaway first begins in beautiful Cape Town. Enjoy seamless airport arrival service before transferring to the elegant Cape Grace. Indeed, here you can enjoy an enviable location at the heart of the V&A Waterfront.

Over the next two days, explore the city with private guides. First, travel along the breathtaking Cape Peninsula. Explore Cape coastal viewpoints, charming seaside villages, and iconic landmarks along the way. This of course includes a stop in front of the Indian Ocean and a drive through the Western Cape nature reserves.

Then continue into the nearby Cape Winelands, where rolling vineyards and historic estates offer beautiful scenery.

In between tours, you will of course enjoy time at leisure in Cape Town. Stroll the waterfront, relax at the hotel, or dine at world-class restaurants. In addition, consider traveling to the top of Table Mountain, or exploring the city's apartheid history. For example, perhaps visit Robben Island or the colorful Bo Kaap neighborhood.

Ker & Downey can also arrange food-specific tours for you to taste such local delicacies as bunny chow and Cape Malay cuisine.

Indeed, Cape Town sets a perfect tone for South African romance and discovery.

Then leave the coast behind and head into the African bush. Fly to the Kruger region, one of the best places to visit in South Africa. While here, settle into Singita Lebombo Lodge, a striking African safari retreat overlooking the N’wanetsi River.

You will eventually discover that nature takes center stage here. Enjoy twice-daily game drives through the game reserve led by expert guides in search of the Big Five. Plus, in between safaris, relax on the lodge’s dramatic cliffside deck. Sip fine wine, enjoy gourmet cuisine, and watch wildlife move along the river below.

Each day flows effortlessly from adventure to relaxation. This safari experience therefore promises one of the most memorable parts of your South Africa getaway.

After your safari, travel to Johannesburg for a brief overnight stay. Check in at the acclaimed Saxon Hotel, known for its refined luxury and tranquil setting.

Use this time to unwind before your island escape. For example, enjoy the peaceful gardens, or indulge in spa treatments. Or, simply relax in preparation for the next chapter of your South Africa and Mauritius getaway.

Then trade safari plains for turquoise seas as you fly to the island of Mauritius. Indeed, this portion of your journey delivers a truly indulgent Mauritius tour.

Stay at the stunning Oberoi Mauritius, where timeless design meets natural beauty. Gentle trade winds carry scents of vanilla, orchids, and spice across the resort. As such, days unfold at your own pace.

Enjoy snorkeling, scuba diving, or paddleboarding in crystal-clear waters filled with coral reefs. From June to November, whale watching brings sightings of humpback whales. Meanwhile, visitors can spot sperm whales year-round.

Or, relax by the pool, stroll white-sand beaches, or savor private dinners beneath the stars. Mauritius offers the perfect balance to South Africa’s excitement and therefore creates a seamless romantic escape.

At the appropriate time, a private driver will transfer you to the airport for your onward journey.
