Sample Itinerary

Cape Town:

Cape Town is known for its shopping, night life, Table Mountain, botanical garden, waterfront and history.  From leisurely strolls along pristine white sand beaches to exploring the dramatic cliffs of Cape Point and the vibrant blooms of Kirstenbosch Gardens, Cape Town offers a blend of natural beauty and cultural richness. Enhancing the experience, boutique hotels provide a perfect retreat, ensuring a combination of luxury, breathtaking views, and unforgettable moments in one of the world’s most beautiful cities.

Greater Kruger National Park:

The Greater Kruger National Park is home to lions, elephants, rhino, cape buffalo, cheetah, leopard, giraffes, and so much more. You will be staying in lodges on private concessions adjoining Kruger National Park. Why a private concession? Because you will enjoy the wildlife of Kruger without the number of tourists. Nothing is worse than pulling up to an amazing animal viewing only to be blocked by twenty other vehicles! In private reserves, you will have much more access to the animals you want to see. The number of vehicles at sightings is limited giving you a more intimate experience with nature.  Kruger is the best place in Southern Africa for the chance to see the Big 5 (elephant, rhino, Cape buffalo, lion, leopard) and the other incredible species of the area!

Every safari we plan is completely custom based on your unique desires and interests.  On a Family Expeditions Safari you will never be in a tour group.  Your itinerary will be unique to you and your traveling companions.  We are readily available to you throughout the planning phase, as you travel and even when you return as we want to hear all about your adventure!  Every detail will be taken care of so all you need to do is pack and show up!
