South Africa

Cape Town · Winelands

Best: May–Sep (dry season, best game viewing)
~11h from London

The Mother City

Cape Town

Table Mountain rising above one of the world's most beautiful cities — the Victoria & Alfred Waterfront, the Cape Peninsula, Boulders Beach penguins and the cultural energy of the Bo-Kaap

The Wine Country

Cape Winelands

Stellenbosch's oak-lined streets, Franschhoek's French Huguenot history and the finest wine estates in the Southern Hemisphere — Haute Cabrière, Tokara, Waterford and more

The Wild North

Kruger National Park

Two million hectares of untamed bushveld, home to the Big Five — lion, leopard, elephant, rhino and buffalo — best experienced on private game drives at dawn and dusk

South Africa is a country of staggering contrasts. In 13 days you can stand on the windswept tip of the Cape Peninsula where two oceans meet, sip Chardonnay in a valley that could pass for Burgundy, watch a leopard drag its kill into a marula tree at dawn, and swim with penguins on an Indian Ocean beach — all without leaving one extraordinary country.

This journey combines Cape Town's cosmopolitan brilliance, the Winelands' civilised pleasures and the raw, humbling drama of a Kruger safari. South Africa rewards those who come with an open heart. Every Lunara Travel itinerary is shaped entirely around you.

YOUR JOURNEY

The Journey

Cape Town begins it, the Mother City, where Table Mountain stands watch over a coastline of white sand and Atlantic blue. The days balance the bright streets of the Bo-Kaap and the harbour hum of the V&A Waterfront with the wild drama of Cape Point and the small, incongruous penguins of Boulders Beach.

A short drive inland carries you into the Winelands, the vine-draped valleys of Stellenbosch and Franschhoek, where Cape Dutch estates pour world-class wines in the shade of brooding mountains. Long lunches, cellar tours and quiet walled gardens make this stretch feel indulgent, slow, and deeply unhurried.

The journey closes with a flight east to Kruger, the great Sabi Sand wilderness where the Big Five move freely and the dawn and dusk game drives become the rhythm of the days. From ocean to vineyard to savannah, South Africa shows itself at its most vast, and most extraordinary.
