Indulge in a travel experience that takes you into Africa where the wild and the luxurious meet in perfect harmony.
Your journey begins in Cape Town, a city of inspiration, where you will spend four days exploring its gin culture, artisanal coffee scene, eclectic cuisine options and experience its most cherished highlights: from Table Mountain to the V&A Waterfront, South Africa’s premier shopping destination.
Your journey continues to Lion Sands Game Reserve, described as “a place that enriches the soul.’’ Here, you will experience firsthand some of most incredible wildlife viewing in the southern hemisphere. The last leg of your expedition will be to a UNESCO Natural World Heritage Site, Victoria Falls, where you will have the opportunity to stay at the first luxury boutique hotel within the region.
