At a glance
From perfect vantage points and the ultimate safari experiences, to pristine island beaches, this trip offers you the opportunity to enjoy some of the best scenery and wildlife South Africa and Mauritius have to offer.
The adventure starts in Cape Town where you will spend some time exploring the vibrant city before heading to the top of iconic Table Mountain for spectacular views. Take a detour through the Bo Kaap with its cobbled streets and brightly coloured houses. Then head out of the city centre for a tour of the Peninsula at large. This privately-guided tour will include a scenic drive up Chapman’s Peak, the ocean sparkling below the winding road, and visits to quaint villages like Noordhoek and Kalk Bay. Stop off to see the penguin colony in Simonstown and breathe the fresh sea air at Cape Point.
Leave the Mother City behind and head out into the bush of the Kruger National Park. Once you’ve settled into your luxury lodge, you spend the next few days making the most of all the park has to offer including looking out for the famed Big Five on morning and afternoon game drives.
Next, you will spend one night in buzzing Johannesburg on your way to the much slower pace of Mauritius, where brilliant blue waters and sandy white beaches await. Spend the last few days of your adventure soaking up the sun on the shore or beside your resort pool, or tackle some of the many thrilling activities on offer. From diving and snorkelling to watersports, there’s plenty to fill your days.

Ngala was the first private reserve to be incorporated into the Kruger National Park and its established reputation and impeccable service is immediately sensed. In terms of wildlife, this 14,700-hectare reserve is similar to what the Kruger possesses (Big Five) but Ngala benefits from good concentrations of lion, frequent leopard spottings and wide open terrain preferred by the wild dog. Conservation is a very big part of what the lodge does, with projects focussing on land and wildlife, and educating the next generation.
Ngala Safari Lodge’s 20 thatched and spaced out chalets provide a good standard of privacy and are styled to be comfortably classic giving them a real home-like quality. Children of all ages are welcome here which, along with the set out, activities tailored for kids and warm service of the staff, makes Ngala a lodge well-matched for families.
The chalets are well-equipped for both hot and cold weather with en-suite bathrooms and pleasant verandas, and the main lodge has a particularly inviting lounge done up in all the tradition of a hunting lodge sitting room. Dining is either in the romantic outdoor boma or lantern-lit in the walled courtyard.
There is one further luxuriously appointed and spacious family suite here at Ngala which has 2 ensuite bedrooms, sitting room, private swimming pool, and a private vehicle should you be a couple or family looking for that extra slice of exclusivity.
- Seven luxury suites
- Main lodge with bar, lounge and pool
- Spa and gym
Intimate, responsible and modern, Makanyi Lodge is a recent addition to Timbavati, a private game reserve flanking the unfenced western edge of the Kruger National Park renowned for its game viewing and white lion prides.
Set amidst the bush overlooking the surrounding wilderness, Makanyi’s seven luxury suites have huge beds, a sitting area with its own fireplace, a beautiful bathroom with a spacious shower and separate bathtub, a private deck and an outdoor shower. Two of the suites are special pool suites, located furthest from the main lodge and featuring four-poster beds and their own private plunge pool.
The Main Lodge enjoys stunning views of the dam, a draw for all manner of wildlife. Sun loungers around the pool are perfect for sunbathing, reading or dozing, whilst the cosy loft serves as a quiet reading area or lounge to enjoy TV or a movie. In the main area there are sofas by the roaring fireplace and a supremely well stocked bar. Dining can be a private affair or enjoyed in the lodge’s outdoor boma and dining room.
Explore the reserve on expertly guided game drives and bush walks – tracking rhino on foot is an unbeatable thrill and true privilege. Star gazing here is also sublime, the fishing is a wonderful way to spend an afternoon, and a professional wildlife photographer can be arranged to spend the day with you sharing knowledge how to take the best pictures in this most amazing of settings. The area surrounding Makanyi also offers a wealth attractions such as a wildlife rehabilitation centre, cultural tours, hot air ballooning, helicopter safaris and more.
