Day 1 - 5: Cape Town
Arrive at Cape Town International and transfer directly to the Table Bay Hotel, a luxury 5 star hotel situated in the heart of the Victoria and Alfred Waterfront.
Cape Town is one of the world’s most beautiful cities. Dominated by Table Mountain it is surrounded by the blue waters of the Atlantic Ocean and ringed with fine white sandy beaches. Apart from its outdoor charms Cape Town entices visitors into its bosom with a wide choice of excellent restaurants, nightclubs and shopping malls such as the V&A Waterfront – a working harbour filled with a wonderful mix of shops, restaurants and exciting activities for all ages.
Trips to the Two Oceans Aquarium, Robben Island, the Kirstenbosch Botantical Gardens, the Cape of Good Hope Nature Reserve and the Malay Quarter will keep you occupied during the time you aren’t sunning yourself on the beach or sipping cocktails at one of the many beachside café’s.
From your Cape Town base, we then recommend you spend at least one day visiting the magnificent Cape Winelands (towns of Stellenbosch, Franschoek and Paarl) just a short distance outside of Cape Town. Here you will be able to sample some of the world’s finest wines learn about the intricate processes used to produce them. Leave room in your suitcase to take home some superb wines at staggeringly low prices.

Hidden in its own jungle, and surrounded by tropical gardens, waterfalls, streams and even a beach lies Sun City holiday resort in South Africa. Giant domes and minarets, protected by a host of Africa's wondrous creatures, glitter in gold and invite visitors to get lost inside this magical African world.
Situated on the slopes of a picturesque valley in the Pilansberg Mountains, Sun City, South Africa has the second largest casino in the world and every form of entertainment and activity imaginable. World class golf, game viewing, adventure sports, fun in the sun, and the bright lights and thrills of the casinos, cinemas, video arcades, cabaret shows, restaurants and the lavish Sun City accommodation offerings make this the ideal destination for luxury holidays in South Africa.

Day 8 - 10: Victoria Falls, The Smoke that Thunders
From Johannesburg, catch your connecting flight on to Livingstone Airport and 1.5 hours later you will be touching down in Zambia, right next to the mighty Victoria Falls.
You will be met at the airport and transferred to your hotel of your choice, situated on the banks of the Zambezi River, just upstream of the falls.
From here you will spend the next 2 days exploring all the area has to offer. The Victoria Falls are one of the natural wonders of the world. Nothing can prepare you for the sight of so much water continuously thundering over the cliffs into the gorge below. Known to the locals as “mosi-oa-tunya”, literally “the smoke that thunders”, Vic Falls is one of the most magnificent spectacles of nature you will ever see.
The nearby town of Livingstone is known to be the adventure capital of Africa and offers visitors all sorts of exciting activities. Speak to our consultants to book your helicopter ride over the Falls, a microlight glide, a day trip down the mighty Zambezi River where you will raft the largest commercially runnable rapids in the world, an elephant back ride, a close encounter with a Rhino on foot, game drives, a 111metre bungee jump and many more exciting surprises.
