South Africa is a country made for exploring – and a multi centre holiday is the ideal way to experience it all in one unforgettable trip. From the cosmopolitan charm of Cape Town to the wild beauty of Kruger National Park, you’ll find world-class cities, Big Five safaris, scenic drives and golden beaches all waiting to be discovered. Start with a few days in Cape Town, with its iconic Table Mountain and vibrant food and wine scene. Add a safari in one of South Africa’s famous reserves, or take the wheel and drive the Garden Route – a stretch of coastline often called the most beautiful drive in the world. End your trip in a peaceful beach town or wine country for some well-earned rest and relaxation. Whether you pick from our suggested itineraries below or work with us to build something bespoke, our South Africa multi centre holidays are the perfect way to take in everything this beautiful country has to offer.
South Africa is full of life, colour and diversity, so staying in one place means missing out on much of what makes it special. A multi-centre holiday is the best way to experience the highlights, blending vibrant cities and dramatic landscapes with unique wildlife encounters and thrilling adventures. Spend time exploring its cities to uncover rich history and culture, then head out on safari to spot the Big Five — a must for any trip to South Africa. Add in stunning beaches, a drive along the famous Garden Route, and world-class food and wine, and it’s easy to see why so many visitors fall in love with this extraordinary country.
South Africa is bursting with variety. Explore Cape Town with its iconic Table Mountain and lively waterfront , then visit Robben Island to uncover the country’s history. Drive the spectacular Garden Route with its dramatic coastline and charming towns, sample world-class wines in the Winelands, or relax on the Cape’s stunning beaches. Head to Boulders Beach to see its famous penguin colony, go whale watching in Hermanus, or walk with cheetahs for unique wildlife encounters. A safari in Kruger National Park to spot the Big Five is also a must, while thrill seekers can try shark cage diving, bungee jumping or zip lining. Add in Durban’s vibrant culture and even a detour into neighbouring Swaziland, and you’ll soon see just how much South Africa has to offer.
South Africa is a year-round destination, but the best time to visit depends on what you want to do. For safaris, the dry winter months (May to September) offer the best wildlife viewing. Cape Town and the Garden Route are the warmest and sunniest between November and March. Our team can help plan your South Africa multi centre trip around your interests and priorities.
Kruger National Park is the country’s most famous safari destination, offering the best chance to see the Big Five and a true wilderness experience. For a more exclusive, malaria-free option, private reserves near Johannesburg or along the Garden Route fit seamlessly into an itinerary. KwaZulu-Natal is another unique choice, with parks offering a rich variety of wildlife.
