South Africa Safari Destinations

One of the most popular holiday venues in South Africa is the South Africa safari.  A South Africa safari is a truly once in a lifetime experience for those on holiday to this exotic destination.

South Africa Safaris are an experience in ecological diversity.  From the western part of South Africa, which features lightly vegetated coastal plains, to the subtropics of the east, the adventurer witnesses not only the assortment of the wild animal population but the varying array of flora and fauna as well.  Packed between these extremes, like the heart of a sandwich, are the wooded and open savannahs and mountainous terrain of the great continent.

The most frequented South Africa safari areas are The Kruger National Park and its Private Game Preserves such as, the Timbavati and the Sabi Sand.  On the Eastern Cape, you can experience superior safaris at Shamwari and The Addo National Park.  The famous Zululand can be traversed in Phinda and Hluhluwe.  Welegevonden and Madikwe have become popular South Africa safari sites in the northern country.

A luxury South African safari features exclusive lodges that rival the finest accommodations anywhere in the world.  These South Africa safaris feature access to the legendary African Big Five; the lion, the leopard, the African Elephant, The Cape Buffalo, and the Black Rhinoceros, in a habitat unspoiled by humanity and time.  The most luxurious surroundings possible in the wild are yours to be had as you build an itinerary of exploration and adventure that take you into the wilds everyday for new, exciting experiences, and return you to comfort at the end of your day’s discoveries.

Standard South African safaris feature comfortable accommodations at the Rest Camps of the National Parks.  While not luxury lodging, the Rest Camps are quite comfortable and feature en suite bathrooms and air conditioning.  Guests are usually met at almost any location in Johannesburg and returned after completing their South Africa safari experience.

A Family South Africa safari can be enjoyed almost anywhere when traveling with older children.  A wide variety of accommodations are available for the safety and comfort of your family.  When accompanied by older children, Kruger National Park is one of the very best destinations for viewing game in the country.  If your children are too young to take the anti-malaria medications, then travel to one of the malaria-free zones for safari is your ideal option.
