Inspirational safari & beach holiday to Mozambique and South Africa
This wonderful itinerary combines an intimate safari experience with a Robinson Crusoe castaway week on the beach at the end of your holiday. Start with an exciting 4 nights on a Big 5 game safari in the Kruger National Park in a private conservancy. Staying in a private conservancy offers a better experience than staying in the main park as due to restricted tourists numbers you get a quieter more private game viewing experience. There are no borders between the Kruger Park and the conservancies so animals are free to traverse through the different areas.
After your Big 5 game viewing experience you'll catch a direct flight into Mozambique. Famous for its long stretches of untouched white sandy beaches this is truly paradise. Spend your days eating delicious fresh sea food, fishing, diving or just snorkelling. Sip cool drinks on your private pool deck under a glorious African sunset after a day spent in the bush. Add to this some sun, sea and spa time at Santorini Mozambique. You will stay in a sprawling villa where you can enjoy stand-up-paddling right in front of the villa or kayaking a little further out. There’s also daytripping to the islands and snorkeling amongst the abundant colourful fish and coral reefs of the archipelago. Or simply float around the swimming pool on pool pillows or take in a massage in the spa.
