Soul of Africa

15 Day Wonders of Southern Africa.. Vic Falls - Kruger - Cape Town

“A world in one country” is very fitting for Southern Africa and the Wonders of Africa Safari has included tours and safaris for everyone.

Discover the splendour of Victoria Falls, one of the Seven Wonders of the World, and is defined by plunging, roaring water falling beneath a mystical veil of spray. The falls’ indigenous name is “The Smoke That Thunders’, and there’s nothing quite like witnessing its power from one of the mist-soaked lookout points.
The helicopter flight over the Falls “The Flight of the Angels” is a wonderful way to end off the experience of the Vic Falls with its amazing views.
The intimate game safaris offer an indulgent experience in the heart of the world-famous Kruger National Park. Early morning game drives allows you to experience an authentic game viewing experience, led by professional guides and coincide with nature as the animals’ search for water. You will be touched with the mystical empathy of man and beast, living together in harmony and with mutual respect of creatures to be born free.
Amazing wildlife encounters and comfortable safari accommodation ensures your bucket list of the BIG 5 is ticked off with an amazing and indescribable experience.
Cape Town, known as the “Mother City” is widely described as one of the world’s most desirable and beautiful destinations and is cradled by the natural presence of Table Mountain and forms a backdrop to a land so lovely that it appears to be a fantasy landscape. The beauty of the vineyards in Constantia, Stellenbosch and Franschhoek entices visitors to taste the world class wines and cuisine.
The Cape Peninsula Tour includes a tour of the majestic coastline which offers drama worthy of being called “Nature’s Greatest Show”. Witness the union of the Indian and Atlantic Oceans. Following the coastline, you will return via the Penguin Colony at the Boulders Beach and Kirstenbosch Botanical Gardens for a short walking tour of the beautiful gardens.
One of the new Seven Wonders of the World, Table Mountain is Cape Town’s centerpiece. A trip on the cable car up to the top of Table Mountain allows you to see the views of Robben Island where Nelson Mandela was imprisoned for 27 Years and the beautiful Atlantic seaboard coastline.
