The Best of South African Wilderness and Wildlife  •  16 days

South Africa is home to many of the best managed and most pristine wildlife habitats in the world. The country is also renowned for its vast expanses of untouched wilderness. This journey is tailor-made for those who wish to experience a cross-section of the country's wilderness and wildlife, and we have attempted to represent a diversity of experiences in the space of just 16 days.


East Africa Wildlife Circuit  •  14 days

The mystique of East Africa has lured adventurers for many years, and the spectacular wilderness of Kenya and Tanzania is largely responsible for this. Both countries are endowed with some of the finest wildlife reserves in the world, and the quality of the game viewing is matched only by the quality of the lodges in the respective parks. Wildspace, together with our experienced local operator, has developed a trip that encompasses the very best wilderness areas of both countries. From the arid savannah of the Samburu in the north, to the vast plains and grasslands of the Serengeti in the south - this trip allows you to briefly experience the mystique!


The Fairest Cape Coastal Itinerary  •  13 days

The scenic beauty of The Cape of Good Hope and its environs has built the Cape into one of the world's most popular tourist destinations. Wildspace has developed a trip along the coast east from Cape Town that visits the most beautiful properties and locations that have given rise to the region's reputation. In only thirteen days, this trip takes you from Cape Town, along the Garden Route, to a private malaria-free reserve in the Eastern Cape in search of Africa's "Big Five".


Deluxe Botswana & South Africa Lodge Safari  •  15 days

Wildspace has sought out the finest lodges set in some of the most exciting game reserves in Botswana and South Africa, and designed an itinerary to include them all. From the pristine wilderness of the Okavango Delta in Botswana, through one of the wonders of the natural world, Victoria Falls, to the wild Lowveld area of South Africa, this trip is the definitive luxury wildlife experience.


Deluxe Golf Itinerary  •  13 days

Southern Africa has a proud golfing history, and has produced more than its fair share of world-class golfers, from the legendary Gary Player, to current players such as Ernie Els, Nick Price and Retief Goosen. This trip provides you with the unique opportunity to play some of the country's best courses on which these great golfers honed their skills, while at the same time exposing you to some of the most spectacular scenery the country has to offer.  Note: This itinerary is only available to an organized group of four or more golfers! The group will have the services of an air-conditioned car and driver throughout their stay in South Africa.


Southern Africa Under Canvas  •  16 days

This itinerary has been specifically designed for those wanting to experience Africa in the manner of Hemingway and his intrepid predecessors. Apart from a few strategically placed stopovers in Johannesburg, accommodation throughout is in comfortable tents. There is only a sheet of canvas between you and the African bush, making for a truly authentic trip. Your journey will take you into the heart of Botswana, to the fabled Okavango Delta and its neighbouring wildlife areas, before returning to South Africa to undertake a short walking safari in a private park adjacent to the famous Kruger National Park.

Walking Safari  •  4 days

A unique and exciting way to experience the African bush is to walk through it with a knowledgeable guide. Our four-day walking safari will bring you up close and personal with the smallest insects, the grasses and trees, and the largest mammals. Wildspace has found the best guide in the business, who will reveal secrets of the African bush that will fill you with awe!  A walking safari is by far the most authentic experience one can have of the African bush.



Sun City Extension  •  4 days

Deep in the rugged bush country northwest of Johannesburg, in the spectacular caldera of an ancient volcano, lies one of the world's most unique resorts, the internationally acclaimed Sun City. The Resort has a distinguish heartbeat and an African rhythm of its own and meets your every desire. This short extension is easily added onto any of our longer South African itineraries for those who want to golf, gamble or merely relax in the fanciful surroundings of the resort.


Cape Hinterland Haven  •  3 days

For those wanting to experience a unique combination of wildflowers, wildlife and spectacular mountain scenery just a few hours from Cape Town, a short excursion up the Cape West Coast is ideal. Wildspace has discovered a tranquil guesthouse located on a large private estate with its own private nature reserve, only an hour by car from Cape Town's international airport. Here you can relax and feel part of the peaceful life of rural South Africa and its clean crisp air and star-filled night skies.


Mozambique Tropical Island Getaway  •  5 days

Mozambique is one of Africa's fastest-growing tourist destinations. Years of civil war kept tourists away from the country's stunning beaches, but now hostilities are a thing of the past and the pristine beaches and islands off the coast are one of the continent's best-kept secrets. This short trip can easily be added onto a trip to South Africa, as the luxurious Indigo Bay Island Resort is a very short flight from Johannesburg.
