Our favourite is a scenic drive along the cliffs of Chapman's Peak down to the tip of Africa, to see where the Atlantic and Indian oceans meet at Cape Point. This is followed by a stop at Boulders Beach, home to a colony of African penguins. For the perfect afternoon activity, you can't go wrong with a classic wine tasting tour of the Cape Winelands, sampling some of Africa's best.

Cape Town to Kruger National Park
Cape Town
Today we fly to Johannesburg, the city of Gold, where we jump in vehicles for our trip up to Kruger National Park.
Kruger National Park
We'll drive along the famed Panorama Route alongside incredible gorges and scenery as we travel the length of the Kruger to our own lodge for the night. Here the Kruger National Park awaits us. Site of the epic YouTube viral video Battle at Kruger, the Park is a sprawling wilderness of bush and terrain that houses the famous Big Five (lion, leopard, rhinoceros, elephant, and Cape buffalo) along with hundreds of species of native birds, ancient trees and meandering rivers. It's ours to explore for the next three days.
NO REGRETS INCLUSIONS
Drive along South Africa's Panorama Route
DAY 5:
Kruger National Park
Kruger National Park
We're up early for our first taste of the fresh morning air that tells us we're deep in the African bush. We'll venture through to the Park gate and enter at sunrise, just the right time to see some of Africa's elusive predators finishing off their nocturnal hunts. We'll eat our packed breakfast at one of the picnic spots and discover who of us has the 'Luck of the bush' and best spotting eyes between us. Lunch will be at one of the main camps in the park and we'll relax here in the midday heat. In the afternoon we depart for another game drive, as the temperatures start cooling and the wildlife become more active, and we make our way to the park exit for sunset. If you want more, there's a chance to head out again on an Open Vehicle Night Drive for the best chance to encounter some of Africa's nocturnal predators.

DAY 6:
Kruger National Park to Middleburg
Kruger National Park
The game of hide and seek continues as we traverse from the central to the southern part of the Park, keeping our eyes open for any wildlife that evaded us the day before. A packed breakfast and hot lunch at a picnic site will keep our stomachs settled as we keep our eyes peeled for any movement of giraffe, hyena, antelope and rhinoceros lurking deep in the bush. We depart the Park in the afternoon and drive halfway to Johannesburg.

Middleburg
Here, halfway to Johannesburg, we'll bunk down before for our flight to Zimbabwe tomorrow.
DAY 7:

Middleburg
We travel back to Johannesburg to catch our flight up to Victoria Falls in Zimbabwe.
Victoria Falls
After lunch on our flight we'll check into our accommodation and drop off our bags. Today we're off for a hike along the Victoria Falls, one of the Seven Natural Wonders and the largest waterfall in the world. You might want to pack your raincoat, as during certain times of the year you can get drenched from the rising spray, giving the falls its local name: 'The smoke that thunders'. The evening will be for the more adventurous, with opportunities for jumping, swinging or ziplining over the mighty Zambezi river, right next to the magnificent falls.

Today is all about adventure. You can sign up for rafting down the Zambezi, one of the world's best white water rapids. Take a scenic helicopter flight over the spectacular falls and neighbouring wildlife reserve, seeing some of Africa's famous animals from above for a truly unforgettable experience. Or for the less adventurous, try your hand at Africa's own kind of escape room - the Tribal Trap. The rest of the day is yours to relax, or head out to join a local Boma buffet dinner, complete with traditional dancers and drumming for something a bit different.

Chobe
We enjoy lunch and leisure time at our lodge before we take our overnight bags into open Safari vehicles with our own personal guides, and drive to the famous Chobe National Park. Known for having the largest density of elephants, driving along the Chobe River front is a non-stop action adventure with wildlife coming and going, quenching their thirst in the hot African sun. Then to top this off, this is the night where you get to truly experience the wilderness of Africa: by a night out in the middle of the African bush. We have a private Contiki site exclusively set up just for you with your own guides, cooks and a bonfire set under the African stars. After a deliciously prepared meal, lying in your tent that night you will fall asleep to the sounds of Africa: a jackal calling in the distance, the loud whoop of a hyena, and perhaps the roar of lions seeking each other out after their daytime slumber.

We'll arrive late morning to check into our new lodge and spend the rest of the day relaxing around the pool and swapping stories from the night before. Our last evening together will end off with a sunset cruise on the Chobe river.
