South Africa - Cape Town to Kruger Family Adventure

Hippos and zebras and penguins, oh my!

This exciting family-friendly adventure starts in the thriving metropolis of Cape Town and ends in the greater Kruger National Park, where open vehicles and bush walks get you up-close with Africa's abundant wildlife, including giraffe, zebra, lion, hippo and rhino.

By day, soak up the friendship and expertise of our homegrown guides, who proudly share with us the wealth of natural beauty, culture and heritage that South Africa has to offer. Ride a tram up Table Mountain for spectacular 3,400 foot views of Cape Town. Visit Nelson Mandela's prison cell on Robben Island. Walk the streets of a thriving local township and pedal from Stellenbosch into Africa's rolling wine country.

Kayak with African penguins, float an arm's length from a 50-ton Southern Right Whale and ride horseback through coastal forests of fynbos, Africa's unique vegetation. By night, savor South Africa's fine regional cuisine before retreating to the comfort of an exquisite guesthouse or nature based lodge.

South Africa - Cape Town to Kruger Family Adventure

A few more reasons why you've gotta go:


1. What better way to learn about African wildlife than from local rangers and conservationists?

2. Horseback riding through private game reserves alongside zebra and giraffe: it's as if you're another 4-legged animal in the kingdom.

3. Who knew Africa had penguins? Get up-close with a colony on a sandy beach.

4. The culture: Your kids will never forget the children they meet at a local school - they may even leave with a pen pal!
