South Africa is a special place, and without a doubt, Cape Town, Sabi Sand, and Kruger National Park are its star destinations. Pristine beaches, vibrant city life, serene escapes, refined stays, and unforgettable wildlife encounters all await on this nine-day Luxury Safari in Kruger National Park & Cape Town LuxVenture®. Cycle through the Winelands, enjoy private air transfers between camps, embark on thrilling safaris, and stay in some of South Africa’s finest lodges and hotels. This journey will leave you with the satisfaction of a country well explored – and a passion to return.
Begin your Luxury Safari in Kruger National Park & Cape Town in the vibrant city of Cape Town – South Africa’s most visited destination for good reason. This incredible city is home to Table Mountain, one of the New 7 Wonders of the World, the stunning Camps Bay Beach, world-class wines in the Cape Winelands, and one of the most dynamic city cultures anywhere. Upon arrival, you’ll be met and transferred to your first hotel, Ellerman House in Bantry Bay. Nestled in an exclusive, leafy suburb with breathtaking ocean views, your suite here is the perfect place to begin your South African adventure.
Today, you will embark on a full-day tour into the world-renowned Cape Winelands. Devon Valley near Stellenbosch boasts a dense concentration of some of South Africa’s most prominent world-class wines. After arriving in the valley, you will set off on a unique cycle tour, stopping at local wine farms along the way to enjoy incredible wine and cuisine experiences. This tour offers ultimate flexibility, allowing you to explore the area at your own pace. Return to the city for the evening, and let our travel experts recommend and pre-book a dinner for you at one of Cape Town’s top restaurants.
Spend the next two days enjoying Cape Town as you find your perfect balance between exploring the city’s mountains, coastline, and vibrant neighborhoods. Our travel experts are available to discuss your preferences, group size, and interests to tailor the best recommendations for your time in the city. You’ll check off Cape Town’s must-see attractions, including the Table Mountain cable car and Camps Bay beach, but our local knowledge will also introduce you to a world of hidden gems – from top restaurants and bars to vintage cinemas, scenic hiking trails, and secret caves around Table Mountain. There’s so much to discover in this incredible city!
Enjoy a final breakfast at the iconic Ellerman House as you take in the last breathtaking views of the seaboard. After breakfast, you’ll be driven to Cape Town International Airport for your flight to Johannesburg’s OR Tambo International Airport. From Johannesburg, board your connecting flight to Singita’s private airstrip—the most direct and convenient route to your lodge in the Sabi Sands Game Reserve. Upon arrival, your guide will meet you for a short drive through the reserve to the renowned Singita Boulders Lodge. Situated on the banks of the Sabi River within a private concession of the Sabi Sands Reserve, this exceptional lodge has been named the 9th best in Africa, the Middle East, and the Indian Ocean by Condé Nast Traveler, and ranked the best in the region – and 7th in the world – by Travel + Leisure.
Immerse yourself in the unrivaled beauty of Singita Boulders Lodge and its world-class game reserve. Expert guides and trackers ensure unforgettable wildlife encounters. Home to an abundance of game, including leopard, lion, rhino, buffalo, elephant, hyena, hippo, nyala, cheetah, wild dogs, and reedbuck, the reserve offers exceptional game-viewing opportunities. Beyond game drives, Singita Boulders offers a wealth of activities, from guided walking safaris and stargazing to community visits that support local development. Indulge in the extensive wine cellar, unwind at the on-site spa, or try your hand at archery and mountain biking. End the day with fireside drinks and a gourmet dinner, the perfect conclusion to your stay at Singita Boulders.
Awake to a world-class breakfast at Singita Boulders Lodge before setting off for your next destination beyond Kruger National Park’s gates. Your seamless transfer to Singita Lebombo begins with a short game drive to the airstrip, followed by a direct light aircraft flight to Satara Airstrip. A Singita Lebombo representative will greet you upon arrival and accompany you on a scenic game drive to the lodge. With just 13 suites, Singita Lebombo is among the most exclusive lodges in Kruger—a must during high season (May–August), when the park attracts visitors from around the world. Overlooking the wildlife-rich N’Wanetsi River, the lodge offers a front-row seat to nature, where antelope and predators gather at the water’s edge. This refined retreat features a library, wine studio, rooftop game viewing, espresso bar, lap pool, and more. Over the next two days, enjoy guided walking safaris, stargazing, community visits, and spa treatments. Indulge in the extensive wine cellar, try archery, or embark on a mountain biking adventure through the wilderness.

A luxury safari offers a mix of breathtaking wildlife viewing, luxurious stays, and cultural experiences.

Our luxury safari experience in Kruger National Park & Cape Town includes guided game drives in the famous Sabi Sands and Kruger, visits to Cape Town’s iconic Table Mountain, and a relaxing cycle tour through the Cape Winelands.
The dry season from May to October is ideal for wildlife viewing, as animals gather around waterholes, making them easier to spot.
