SOUTH AFRICA PANORAMA
Described as the world in one country, South Africa is a grand adventure of spectacular scenery, native traditions and colonial influences. Images of the animal life include elephants lumbering through acacia trees, the graceful gallop of giraffe, majestic lions surveying their domain and restless rhino rumbling across the bushveldt. Virtually the size of Europe and with more than 3000 kilometers of coastline, the country has climatic differences ranging from searing hot desert to snow-capped peaks, and varied cultures from Bushmen to the most western ways.

Our tour takes us from Johannesburg to Cape Town, taking in some of the best of South Africa en route.  We will travel to the world famous Kruger National Park, long considered one of the finest wildlife destinations in the world. We will take early morning game drives in the national park in search of the Big Five, undoubtedly the wildlife adventure of a lifetime.  We will travel through Swaziland and Zululand, reaching Durban, the Zulu Kingdom's bewitching seaside playground. 

From Knysna we take a lagoon cruise to Featherbed Nature Reserve, and in Oudtshoorn we will visit an ostrich farm and tour the vast limestone Cango Caves.

Our journey ends in Cape Town, a beautiful city set against the backdrop of dramatic Table Mountain.
