Overview
Travel through South Africa and Eswatini (Swaziland) on this 12-day family adventure filled with wildlife sightings, open savannahs and ever-changing landscapes. Get an introduction to South Africa’s most famous township, Soweto, before heading out into the wilderness. Search for roaring lions, leggy giraffes and African elephants in Hluhluwe-Imfolozi Park, kayak around Kosi Bay, then head north into the vast expanses of the Hlane and Kruger National Parks. Visit the Black Mambas headquarters – the world’s first all-female anti-poaching unit – and see the shifting colours of Blyde River Canyon. And, do it all with a local leader by your side who knows all the best places to look and keeps the whole family dialled into an unforgettable adventure.

7. DELAYS: Border crossing delays in the region have been sporadic and difficult to predict. What takes an hour one day may take four hours the next.
