package overview
Cape Town
Big Five & Cape Town Escape
Kruger Safari · Table Mountain · Cape of Good Hope
Seven days, two completely different South Africas. Two full days of game drives in Kruger National Park come first — sunrise and afternoon safaris 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.
