SOUTH AFRICA & MAURITIUS

Beach in Mauritius
Intro

Epic safaris, local cultures & island life in Mauritius

Start your adventure in Cape Town, one of the world's most spectacular cities. Hike Table Mountain, meet the penguins at Boulders Beach, explore colourful neighbourhoods, and soak up the city's unique mix of culture, history, and adventure.

Next, experience the Africa you've been dreaming of. Cycle through Soweto for a glimpse of local life before heading into Kruger National Park for three days of safari magic. Think sunrise game drives, nights under the stars, and the chance to spot the Big Five in the wild.

Then trade safari sunsets for tropical island life in Mauritius. Spend your days surfing, snorkelling, beach hopping, or simply relaxing on white-sand beaches. The perfect way to end an unforgettable African adventure.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Planning an unforgettable adventure to South Africa and Mauritius? Here are the answers to some of the questions we get asked most often.

Not at all! Besides stunning beaches, Mauritius offers hiking, snorkelling, diving, catamaran cruises, waterfalls, cultural experiences, and adventure activities like kitesurfing.

If you're visiting Kruger National Park (like in this itinerary), you'll have a good chance of spotting the Big Five: lion, leopard, elephant, rhino, and buffalo.

Mauritius is just a short flight from South Africa, with direct flights from Johannesburg taking around 4 hours. This makes it easy to combine a Big Five safari, vibrant cities like Cape Town, and a few days of relaxation on Mauritius' beautiful beaches in one unforgettable trip.

Without a doubt. Cape Town combines adventure, culture, history, and nature in one unforgettable destination. Whether you're hiking Table Mountain, exploring the Cape Peninsula, discovering local food spots, or relaxing on the beach, it's the kind of place that can easily become a highlight of your trip to South Africa.
