After a delicious and hearty breakfast you will meet your guide for excursions in and around Cape Town. Table Mountain, the symbol of the city, will be the starting point of your excursion. You will go up to the mountain in the cable car (payment is made on the spot, for whether it operates depends on the weather) and from the top you will have a bird’s eye view of this unforgettable city. After that you will visit the Cape Town Castle of Good Hope, which was the first stone structure on the peninsula, and from there you will see the Grand Parade, dominated by the Town Hall building. Continuing the journey, you will visit the Company’s Gardens built at the time of Jan van Riebeeck, founder of Cape Town. You can buy peanuts to feed the squirrels, who will eat from your hand. Next to the Gardens you will see St. George’s church, famous for having the largest stained-glass windows in the Southern hemisphere. Nearby are also the Houses of Parliament and the National Gallery of art. A tour of a jewelry factory will help you understand the process of cutting of precious stones and you can touch diamonds of various sizes and learn useful information about jewelry. If you like, you can purchase jewelry at factory prices direct from the manufacturer.

Today you will relive the days of the discoverers and of the colonial conquests and you will spend the day on Cape of Good Hope, which you have heard about in school. In 1488 Portuguese navigator Bartolomeu Dias landed on the Cape and called it the Cape of Storms, because he had survived a terrible storm that nearly cost him and his crew their lives. Portuguese King João II, having great expectations for a new Eastern sea route, renamed it the Cape of Good Hope. Here tourists often look forward to seeing large families of baboons. These animals are very cute, but be careful not to feed them, for you might get hurt when they fight for their food. After passing the entrance gate your bus will follow a level road and then drive down to the famous promontory. Here you can make a souvenir photo against a panel that has the coordinates of the Cape of Good Hope. Then you can climb to the highest point of the Cape Peninsula, where you will enjoy the extraordinary beauty of the ocean and the bay. We now say goodbye to the Cape and we are on our way back. The road runs along the coast of False Bay and goes through the small town of Simon’s Town, near which the largest South African naval base and Boulders Beach are situated. On that beach you will meet the famous Cape penguins. Long ago, these wonderful animals chose this beach for hatching their offspring and now they live there year-round, delighting local and foreign tourists. You will stop for lunch (at your own expense) at a restaurant well known for its seafood recipes. Return to the hotel around 17h00-18h00

After breakfast you will meet your guide from Alpha-Zulu Africa for a fascinating journey through the unusually beautiful province of Mpumalanga. The road passes through the battlefields of the Boer War where the Boer commando volunteers tried to repel the British. You can visit the Three Rondavels on Mpumalanga's Panorama Route and enjoy a spectacular view over the Blyde River Canyon. From there you will see one of the natural wonders of Africa, fantastic geological formations created by water. You will admire the marvelous “God’s Window”, a rocky formation through which you can look at the plains and valleys from a bird's eye view. Dinner and accommodation in a small boutique hotel which is located along your route.

After breakfast, continue the journey to one of the most beautiful corners of the world, the province of Mpumalanga. Dinner will be served at the endpoint of the journey, Kruger Park. This is the visiting card of the Republic of South Africa, one of the most famous parks in the world. In its vast expanses of the African bush, among thickets of acacias and dense shrubbery, live almost all representatives of the diverse African fauna. The guide will lead you to your accommodation at the lodge. In the afternoon you will depart in a specially equipped car for a safari in the African bush in search of Big African Five (elephant, rhino, buffalo, lion and leopard). Do not forget to get your cameras ready! A well-trained professional hunter will help you find the animals and come as close as possible to them.

The day begins with a morning safari. You will rise very early and in a vehicle with a professional huntsman you will go to the forest and look for animals. Upon returning to the lodge you can enjoy a gourmet breakfast and have a rest. In addition, you can also go on a walking safari, which will give you an adrenaline shot. Experienced rangers armed with shotguns will protect you, so you have nothing to worry about. The pleasure you get from such walks cannot be compared with anything! Return to the lodge for a rest and lunch. In the afternoon you will have another meeting with wildlife: a safari in an open jeep where you will experience new adventures. Additionally, you may order a safari riding on an elephant’s back, a safari in a balloon or river fishing.

After the morning safari and breakfast, transfer to airport for the flight to Johannesburg. Upon arrival you must change to the International Terminal, to board the intercontinental airliner that will bring you home.

Until we meet again in Africa, dear friends!
