Information about
Wonders of South Africa
The "Wonders of South Africa" tour offers the opportunity to discover some of the most iconic places in the country: we will start in Cape Town, probably the most beautiful city on the entire African continent, where we will visit some historic monuments and the most characteristic neighborhoods, like the picturesque Bo Kaap, before heading to Table Mountain, an unmistakable symbol of the city. We will visit the Cape Peninsula, where we will have the opportunity to take a boat ride to see the seals of Seal Island, approach the Cape of Good Hope, and admire the penguin colony at Boulder's Beach. You don’t have to be a wine lover to enjoy a visit to the Winelands: this wine region will surprise us with its landscapes, rich gastronomy, and charming towns like Franschhoek or Stellenbosch, where we will have the opportunity to taste and buy local wines.
After these incredible experiences, we will fly to Kruger National Park, one of the most famous safari parks in the world!
