Good to know.

  • Stays are described by style and place.
  • One stay is on a free roaming Big Five reserve on the Garden Route.
  • Travel times are approximate driving or flying times without stops, rounded up.
  • Flights are included only where What is included lists them. Scheduled flights change by season: the days and times are checked for each journey.
  • The Kruger and northern Botswana are malaria areas, and Etosha carries a seasonal risk. Speak to your doctor before travel. The Cape, the Karoo and the Garden Route are free of malaria, and in Windhoek, the Namib and on the Namibian coast the risk is very low.
  • Wildlife is wild. Each tour says plainly what its reserve holds, and no sighting is ever promised.
