SOUTH AFRICA WITH THE LEGACY UNTOLD

In South Africa you can come closer to the Big Five (elephant, lion, leopard, rhino, and buffalo) than anywhere in Africa, explore the rugged coastline and jet set culture of cosmopolitan Cape Town, wander the bohemian neighborhoods of ever-changing Johannesburg, and taste your way through the idyllic Cape Winelands all in one trip without ever leaving the country. Vibrant, versatile, and surprisingly easy to navigate, South Africa also connects seamlessly to other dreamy experiences on the continent, be it an endless desert oasis, iconic Victoria Falls, or a beautiful beach.

PLANNING YOUR TRIP

WHEN TO GO

GETTING THERE

South Africa is one of the main gateways to the African continent and there are so many options including direct flights from New York and connecting flights through Europe and the middle east. Most safaris initially depart from Johannesburg. Cape Town and Johannesburg are a short 2-hour flight away from one another.
