Gather the whole family and create everlasting memories when you opt for the 7-day trip to the malaria-free area of Madikwe Game Reserve and the city of Cape Town, where fun is always guaranteed. Take advantage of a discounted price when booking this package.

Overview

Your African journey begins as you focus on a four-day safari in Madikwe Game Reserve. Madikwe is a malaria-free reserve and although it is one of the lesser-known parks in South Africa, it is regarded as one of the best conservation areas in Africa. During your stay at the luxurious Madikwe Safari Lodge, morning and afternoon game drives will offer the privilege of possibly seeing the Big 5 and the highly endangered African Wild Dog who thrive in this spectacular reserve.

After some phenomenal game viewing, Cape Town or better known as the “Mother City” of South Africa, welcomes you. In the heart of the city and surrounded by vibrant restaurants and cafes, the stylish apartment-style hotel of More Quarters will be your haven.

Cape Town is uniquely different with something to offer each person who visits. With a bird’s eye view from the top of Table Mountain to the sweeping vineyard valleys of the Cape Winelands. From diving with great white sharks to the breath-taking scenery of the Cape Peninsula.

If you looking for something out of the ordinary, then include a visit to the cobbled streets of Bo Kaap Cape Town with its brightly coloured 17th century houses, Kayaking in the naval port of Simons Town, meet local South African and indulge in South African dishes or visit a township where you will be sure to meet some inspiring people and learn how to cook an African meal.

This 7-day tour is a perfect combination of vibrant city life and Big 5 Safari.

This tour is ideal for couples, individuals seeking adventure and families: Children of all ages are welcome at Madikwe Safari Lodge with a special children's programme in place to entertain them.

Itinerary

Day 1 - 4: Madikwe Game Reserve, South Africa

South Africa welcomes you as you arrive at Johannesburg’s OR Tambo Airport. You will be met and taken to a nearby hangar where you will take a short charter flight to Madikwe Game Reserve.

With approximately three and a half hours of off-road game driving and a sundowner experience, you head back to the lodge for an evening of outdoor dining.

Great advice, responsive and knowledgeable!
Pascal John at Safari.com guided me on different safari lodges (experience, rating), and most importantly knew about specials (buy 3 nights, get 4th for free) which allowed my family to secure a 5-star location at a more reasonable rate. Great advice, responsive and knowledgeable!
