WHEN TO GO
WHERE TO STAY
There’s not much that South Africa doesn’t have to offer its visitors. The Kruger delivers Africa’s most reliable Big 5 game viewing, while Cape Town and its surrounding wine valleys provide an elegant, Mediterranean twist to your safari.

Not to mention the 2,500km (1,550mi) coastline of sun-kissed beaches, craggy shores, quaint towns, and indigenous forests to explore!

“I absolutely loved Go2Africa’s customer service. They were incredible at creating an itinerary that was personalized exactly to what I wanted. They made everything effortless. I didn’t have to worry about a thing! The itinerary was very detailed and made everything easy. I just had to wait in the lobby and my transfer would show up and take me to the next excursion, airport, etc. They also fit everything into my budget. They made my honeymoon dreams come true.” Christine in Michigan, USA >
