There are some excellent game viewing opportunities in the Eastern Cape. Much is said about spotting the Big Five and here you have a good chance to see all of them, although you would have to be very lucky to see them all in the same day! On game drives you will have an experienced ranger to help you make the most of what you see; they really can enhance your enjoyment of the trip and are an absolute encyclopaedia of information.

We feature two fashionable suburbs of Johannesburg which are great for connections or one night stays before or after your South African adventure. Both of which offer excellent restaurants, bars and shopping. Gauteng, the province that includes Johannesburg and Pretoria, has plenty of wide, open spaces. Big game can be seen in its nature reserves, with many visitors heading for the epic Kruger National Park, a half-day’s drive to the north-east. Pretoria is renowned for its beautiful parks and gardens, in springtime the streets are washed with the delicate mauve of jacarandas. The planners had the foresight to design over 100 open spaces in the city and these include nature reserves and bird sanctuaries. Delightful old buildings have been painstakingly restored and it has emerged from its political past as a vibrant and interesting place with many attractions for the visitor. Johannesburg has excellent connections, so you can easily combine a South African holiday with a Indian Ocean beach break or a city stopover in the Middle East. Head to Mauritius or The Seychelles after your safari; discover a different kind of safari in Botswana's Okavango Delta; head up to Zimbabwe to see the glorious Victoria Falls; and stop on your way home for a shopping spree in Dubai.

On the border with Botswana, two hours from Sun City or four hours from Johannesburg, Madikwe is the fifth largest game reserve in South Africa. One of its charms is how relatively unknown it is, meaning that you can enjoy a more intimate safari experience. Home to the Big Five and three hunting packs of the highly-endangered African wild dog, these former farmlands offer superb wildlife spotting in a malaria-free zone. For family entertainment, the extravagant resort of Sun City is considered to be one of the most glamorous in southern Africa, complete with casinos, cinemas, safari experiences, restaurants, top-class golf courses and some superb hotels. Less than two hours drive from Johannesburg, here you can enjoy complimentary access to the Valley of the Waves – a fun-filled water park dominated by a large lagoon with a wave machine generating waves up to 1.8 metres every 90 second.

Kruger is South Africa’s safari heart and each of its private concessions offers a little extra to enjoy this awe-inspiring landscape.

The Kruger is a wilderness just waiting to be explored.
