Your journey begins

Day 1 - 4

Cape Town

21 Nettleton

There’s little that can prepare you for your first sighting of Cape Town, as few cities in the world can compare to it for its combination of dramatic mountains, picturesque vineyards, stunning beaches and urban energy. It just has that special something that consistently captivates the hearts of all who visit. This is best showcased with a stay at 21 Nettleton, where the unique personal experiences and superb views are the best in the city. Each of the private and individually styled suites in this boutique hotel are appointed with the finest modern amenities and ideally placed to appreciate the expansive views and stunning landscape. The focus here is to provide guests with a memorable, personalized and tranquil stay.

Day 4 - 8

Kruger National Park

Chitwa Chitwa

The Sabi Sand Private Game Reserve is a concession within the Kruger National Park, known for its world-class lodges and superb game viewing. It was the first-ever private nature reserve established in South Africa and offers frequent sightings of the famous Big Five as well as cheetah, zebra, giraffe and a variety of antelope. Chitwa Chitwa is one of the leading lodges here where guests can enjoy excellent wildlife viewing, dining under the stars and guided bush walks.

Why we recommend

  • World’s leading location to see the elusive Leopard up close and personal
  • Located on the banks of one of the largest dams in the reserve and so the safari experience continues after game drives as animals come down to drink
  • Offers exclusivity in two beautifully appointed en-suite rooms with a private chef, ranger and vehicle
  • Family friendly lodge, welcoming children of all ages

Day 8 - 11

Victoria Falls

Victoria Falls River Lodge

Victoria Falls is one of the world’s most impressive waterfalls and measures a whopping 1,708 metres in width. The surrounding area provides a wide range of adrenaline-filled activities for adventure lovers. Visitors can look forward to an array of wonderful activities including scenic flights, micro lighting, white water rafting, bungee jumping, kayaking and trips to the Chobe National Park. Victoria Falls River Lodge, on the banks of the mighty Zambezi River and where one can see the spray of the Falls in the distance, boasts luxury tented suites with private decks and plunge pools. The first privately owned safari lodge to be built within the Zambezi National Park, it’s ideally located for exploring the area.

Why we recommend

  • The first luxury lodge to be built within the Zambezi National Park
  • You will be based on the banks of the Zambezi away from the hustle and bustle of Victoria Falls town yet close enough to visit the falls conveniently
  • Beautifully designed family rooms and dedicated activity programs
  • 6 Island Treehouse Suites set apart on a private Island in the middle of the Zambezi with access by speedboat boat or by helicopter

Frequently Asked Questions

All year round is good although October is incredibly humid and hot in the Victoria Falls area. The ‘Low Water’ period runs between August and January and is at its lowest between November and early December. The best views of the falls at this time will be Devil’s Cataract which is permanent and on the Zimbabwean side of Victoria Falls. The water levels are not at their lowest in August and September but the Zimbabwean side will still be a better side from which to view the falls over those two months. Low water also comes with other benefits such as activities that can only be done during low water like a visit to Livingstone island and River Rafting.

South Africa and Zimbabwe are included here. For South Africa, you can check entry requirements here: http://www.dha.gov.za/index.php/immigration-services/types-of-visas. Zimbabwe can be interchanged with Zambia however if visa requirements are prohibitive. A “Kaza UNIVisa” can be arranged for both sides so that you can enter two countries in order to see the falls from both sides. (Check if your nationality is eligible here: http://www.kazavisa.info/ ). Individual visas for either Zambia or Zimbabwe if required can also be purchased via respective e-visa portals for each country.

Good advice for Travel in Zimbabwe or Zambia is to make sure that you have US Currency in small denominations (and issue after 2010) for all purchases. Credit card payments are accepted as well for payments at hotels / lodges although it is better to have USD for tipping and for purchases from markets and shops. Many vendors do not accept American Express so it would be better to travel with either Visa or Mastercard. In South Africa, you will only be able to pay in local currency, the South African Rand or by credit card.

Easily customisable to extend or reduce stays in each of the destinations or even change a property to an alternative. Zimbabwe can also be swapped for the Zambian side of Victoria Falls.

Generally safari stays are booked further in advance than your average city or beach destination and so we recommend 6 – 8 months minimum. In addition, many of the properties we recommend are small and exclusive with limited availability.

Payment is required in advance and can be made by credit card or bank transfer. A deposit is required to secure your bookings and the balance is due by 60 days prior to travel.
