Safari holidays in South Africa

You’d be crazy to come all this way and not experience a safari holiday in South Africa. The national parks and private game reserves are some of the most easily accessible in Africa – whether you’re in a hire car or travelling with a local ranger. You can take bush walks or even horse back rides to learn more about the wildlife and its habitat, take part in conservation and monitoring as part of ongoing research projects and stay in gorgeous safari lodges or rustic tented camps.
