Cape and Kalahari Safari
A 5 star, luxury, family holiday combining stunning Cape Town and the scenic Cape Winelands, with the semi-arid desert of the Kalahari. Enjoy the sights and sounds of Cape Town, it's fabulous tourist attractions and fantastic family activities, all whilst staying at the family friendly One & Only Hotel on the V&A Waterfront. Then head to the picturesque winelands area and to the exquisite Babylonstoren Farm for yet more fun-filled family activities. You will conclude this unique holiday by flying to Tswalu Kalahari for a unique and utterly luxurious safari.
The perception that the Kalahari is a desolate desert is quite the contrary and you can expect some incredible wildlife sightings here, including some lesser spotted animals such as the brown hyena, wild cats and honey badgers. The famous black maned lions of the Kalahari are of course spotted here and the real beauty of this itinerary is the remoteness of the camp. For serious safari buffs with a tick list, Tswalu is one of the best places on Earth to see the very elusive pangolin and aardvark. For your little ones, they will be thrilled with the meerkat sightings and the amazing array of activities including learning to make their own bow and arrow!
