Southern Africa has some of the most beautiful landscapes and pristine pockets of untouched nature on Earth, something any eager traveler should experience at a price they feel comfortable with.
African Sky Safaris and Tours has three general accommodation levels to fit your pocket, while meeting your expectations of the region and all it has to offer. The beauty, tranquility and excitement of exploring a region widely regarded as one of the most biodiverse on Earth is something to experience and remains unrestricted by the level you decide on. Below are the three levels, each chosen for comfort and each a window into this extraordinary part of the world. Our tailor-made packages can also combine them in one trip.
Exclusive Top-End Price Range
Five-star lodges and hotels at their most exclusive
The tours listed as “Exclusive Top-End” are, as the name suggests, at the pinnacle of exclusivity and luxury. Only the best private game lodges and reserves are included in these packages, which run from a three-day stay in the Sabi Sand to journeys of 18 days, and the emphasis throughout is on relaxation and comfort. Among the destinations included in these packages are the thundering Victoria Falls on the border between Zambia and Zimbabwe, Cape Town, the Mother City, the Cape Winelands, the Garden Route with its forests and lagoons, the Sabi Sand and the Okavango Delta. All six appear on our list of Southern Africa’s top places to visit. What this package range offers you, above all else perhaps, is the chance to see Southern Africa on your own terms. All the tour packages on offer have been meticulously planned for this purpose, with only your choice of daily activities and the pace of your schedule left to complete your epic journey.
The 7-Day Kruger’s Finest Fly-In Safari shows the style. It pairs Rattray’s on MalaMala, where game drive vehicles carry four guests or fewer, with Singita Lebombo, whose glass-fronted suites stand on a cliff above the N’wanetsi River in a private Kruger concession. Light aircraft link the two, so almost no time is lost on the road.
Luxury
Five-star hotels and lodges
The “Luxury” package range allows any eager traveler to experience Southern Africa in true comfort. This package range offers a great variety of destinations and will fit your personal idea of a dream vacation very well. It includes golf tours and family-friendly tours, all with accommodation that will make you feel at home and at ease from day one. Some of the many destinations included in this range are the mysterious Namibian coast, the Highveld and Lowveld of South Africa, the Garden Route, the KwaZulu-Natal coast, Kruger National Park, and the Drakensberg mountains. The excitement of exploring new places is best experienced when leaving the hustle of daily life behind as you set foot on that plane, something the destinations and accommodation on offer here will most certainly help you achieve.
Golfers have the widest choice at this level, with tours that range from ten days in the Western Cape to three weeks across the country. Families can look at the 14-Day Five-Star South African Family Tour, which starts with the Palace of the Lost City at Sun City and malaria-free game drives in the Pilanesberg, then flies on to the Garden Route and Cape Town.
Standard Personal
Comfortable four-star hotels, guest houses and lodges
The “Standard Personal” range offers the greatest variety of all our packages. No destination in South Africa, Namibia, Botswana, or Zambia goes unnoticed here, making it the ideal selection for the avid traveler or explorer. Many people choose to visit Southern Africa every few years, and this range offers just what you need if you are one of them. There really is just too much to see in one trip to our beautiful neck of the woods. Having said that, if you are looking to see as much of it as possible, then a tour in this range is most likely to be the best option for you. Some of the highlight destinations here are Kruger National Park, Victoria Falls, the beautiful South African interior, the Cape Region, the Namibian coast, and the South African east coast. One of our professional guides will see to it that your vacation is one to remember, just as with the other two package ranges.
The range also holds some of our most unusual routes. The 10-Day Tiny Kingdoms tour crosses the eastern Free State, Lesotho, the Drakensberg and Eswatini, and the 21-Day In-Depth South Africa tour links Kruger, Eswatini, Zululand, the Garden Route, the Winelands and Cape Town in one journey.
