South Africa's Two Icons, One Affordable Week

Kruger's Wildlife, Then Cape Town's Coastline

Seven days, two completely different South Africas. Two full days of game drives in Kruger National Park come first — sunrise and afternoon adventures in search of lion, rhino, buffalo, elephant and leopard — before a short flight south swaps the bush for Table Mountain, the Cape Peninsula and a cruise out to Seal Island. At Exotic Destinations KE, this is our most affordable safari-and-city combination, built for travellers who want the Big Five and Cape Town without the extra days of our longer South Africa itineraries.
