9 Day Big 5 of Land & Sea
When we think about South Africa, we typically think of the land: The eye-catching sweep of Table Mountain looming over the Cape Town skyline; wild creatures roaming vast savannas; the jagged cliffs of the Cape Point Peninsula. Its beauty can’t be overstated. But not all of that beauty stands on solid ground. The coastline stretches for almost 2,000 miles and is met by two seas. To limit one’s visit solely to the land is to miss out on half the magic that makes South Africa special. Join us on an incomparable wildlife adventure that blends dry land and open water. Make your experience whole.

It all begins in Cape Town, South Africa’s cosmopolitan port on the South Atlantic. Here, you’ll ascend to the peak of iconic Table Mountain by cable car for a birds-eye glimpse of one of the world’s most beautiful cities before cycling down the mountain’s slopes en route to a privately guided walking tour of the city’s charming neighborhoods and sights. Later, explore the beaches, coves, and hiking trails of the Cape Point Peninsula while keeping an eye out for African penguins on a secluded beach and funky cafés at the surfing spots that line the route. At the exceptional Grootbos Private Nature Reserve in seaside Hermanus, take to the waves on optional whale-watching safaris or test your mettle by climbing into a shark cage to dive with great whites before flying north for a rendezvous with the Great Outdoors. Let the Sabi Sand Game Reserve play center-stage for your real-life nature documentary and get close to the fabled Big Five and other wild creatures on morning and afternoon game drives with experienced trackers. A perfect balance of land, sea, and sky, all South Africa is missing is you.
