Searching for an exotic and luxurious holiday at an affordable price? You can expect luxurious accommodation throughout, complete with personal touches, without breaking the bank.
Explore the highlights of South Africa with an exclusive special offer that takes you from the vibrant streets of Cape Town to the rolling vineyards of the Cape Winelands and the wild heart of the Greater Kruger.
Picture yourself wandering Cape Town’s historic neighbourhoods, framed by the dramatic sweep of Table Mountain and the sparkling Atlantic coastline. Then, just a short journey to Franschhoek, where sun-drenched vineyards, charming streets, and world-class food and wine create the perfect setting for days of discovery and indulgence. Explore the town’s historic centre, taste exceptional wines at the surrounding vineyards, and soak up the timeless elegance that has made Franschhoek one of the Cape Winelands’ most celebrated destinations. Finally journey north to Garonga Safari Camp in the Makalali Conservancy, in search of The Big Five. Expert guides lead game drives in this private conservancy, while evenings in canvas tents surround you with the sights and sounds of the African bush. For an experience unlike any other, ask us about the "Sleep Out Deck", a private elevated platform overlooking a waterhole, where a lantern-lit dinner and a night under the stars bring you closer to nature than ever before.
This journey is perfect for those who want it all: culture, cuisine, and wildlife, crafted into a simple, yet sophisticated adventure that balances relaxation, discovery, and extraordinary experiences.

Reviews
Wonderful South Africa
We had a wonderful trip and everything worked perfectly. Both Garonga and
Makweti
were excellent choices and staying more days at fewer places allowed us to
enjoy more of the African bush,animals and atmosphere instead of hurrying
from one camp to the next. Both camps had good waterholes which animals
visited frequently so even though Garry did not go on every drive he saw
plenty of animals. I always look for a camp with a waterhole. We saw the big
five at Garonga - terrific leopard sighting in a tree above our vehicle and
then a leopard fight and the looser just missed falling in our vehicle. No
leopard at Makweti but plenty of animals and easier travelling on Makweti
Safari. At Makweti we had an elephant drinking from one of the swimming
pools.
Food was very very good at both places and accomodation wonderful. The sleep
out at Garonga Is a must do. Exciting and a little scary but a great
experience We saw three lions at the dam I fronton the sleep out while
having dinner. They gave us a whistle and foghorn to scare away the animals
if necessary! They have not lost anyone in twenty years so I guess it all
works.
We probably liked Makweti a little more but it was a close choice. The food
was exceptional at Makweti seeing animals a little easier and zebras walking
under our deck wonderful. Test our guide was exceptional and made every trip
fun . We had three different guides at Garonga which I though al little
strange although it did not worry us too much but the last guide we had was
the best. At Garonga the drinks were paid for and we could help ourselves
which is an advantage. At Makweti we had to pay for drinks which were a
reasonable price but you needed someone to serve you. Note at Makweti there
is NO phone reception which did not worry us.
At both places there is wifi in the main meeting areas Moore Quarters was
once again great. I would recommend staying there. Easy walking to great
restaurants and shops and supermarket and pharmacy near by . We walked to
the waterfront And also used the free shuttle . Breakfast was very good
Thanks for organising a fantastic holiday
Bench organised a truly wonderful holiday and everything ran smoothly. I cannot wait to see more
