One can feel at home with individually furnished rooms, old Cape charm, and sophistication. Aside from the usual luxuries, the hotel has a magnificent view of the harbor and waterfront. Enjoy the relaxed atmosphere at the hotel or explore the unique shops and dining experiences on offer at the waterfront. Alternatively, opt for a boat ride around the harbor. Guests spend four nights at the Cape Grace and can relax at the waterfront or explore Cape Town and its surroundings.
During your time in Cape Town, you can enjoy two included private day trips accompanied by a knowledgeable African Sky Guide. The days on which you want to enjoy these are to be confirmed. On these days, you will be met in the hotel lobby at 8 am and returned to the hotel between 4 pm and 5 pm.
This tour explores the Cape Peninsula on a circular route; it features magnificent coastal scenery, a visit to the old lighthouse via the Cape Dutchman Funicular, and a visit to Boulders Beach to observe a mainland-based colony of the critically endangered African penguins.
On this day, you will visit the historical towns of Stellenbosch and Franschhoek, visit two or three wineries for a cellar tour, get an introduction to winemaking, and taste some of South Africa's finest wines.
Guests are transferred to Cape Town International for a flight to George, where they are met for a drive of about an hour and a half to Plettenberg Bay, one of South Africa's premier coastal towns. On the journey, you will see some of South Africa's most imposing landscapes, with forested hills, golden beaches, and a landscape crisscrossed by rivers and dotted with lakes. Upon reaching your overnight accommodation, you will be assisted with check-in.
The Plettenberg sits atop a rocky headland, offering stunning views across the ocean to distant mountains and golden beaches in front of the hotel. It is centrally located, close to shops and restaurants, and hosts Amelia's at the Plettenberg, where fresh seafood is the specialty. There is a spa and swimming pool, and you can directly access stunning beaches from here for swimming, lazing in the sun, or strolling along the beautiful coastline.
Guests are met after breakfast and transferred to George Airport for a flight to Johannesburg, and from there, you have an onward connection to Skukuza in the Kruger National Park. A transfer will meet you at the airport and take you on a short drive to your lodge in the world-renowned Sabi Sand Private Game Reserve. The reserve is part of the Greater Kruger National Park and home to many of South Africa's finest game lodges. The Lion Sands River Lodge is secluded; every room has a private patio where alone time can be enjoyed. It overlooks the Sabie River, and you are assured of exceptional game viewing, even from the comfort of your luxury room.
Two game drives and a bush walk are conducted daily: one shortly after sunrise and the other in the late afternoon, extending into the first hours of darkness when the predators become active for the night's hunt. You will experience close encounters with the legendary Big Five; the lion, leopard, elephant, and rhino are the most desirable animals to see on safari activities. But there is more to see: antelope like the kudu, waterbuck, impala, and many more. Other fascinating animals include zebra, giraffe, crocodile, and hippopotamus. You will also encounter rich avian diversity on game drives and when relaxing in camp.
Following a last-morning safari and breakfast in the wilds of Sabi Sand, you will be transferred to Highgrove House on a working farm not far from Hayzieview. It is ideal for a connecting night with luxury accommodation and fine dining. Highgrove also offers spa treatments and lovely gardens.
The hotel is reached around lunchtime. In the afternoon, you can hike through indigenous forests, macadamia, and avocado orchards or relax in this tranquil setting.
This morning, you will travel to the airport near Mbombela (Nelspruit) for a flight to Livingstone, Zambia. Upon arrival at the airport near Livingstone, guests will be met and transferred to their hotel, located on the banks of the Zambezi River. The Royal Livingstone boasts an alluring proximity to the foamy crest of Victoria Falls, offering spellbinding views of the falls' rainbow-spun mists pirouetting above the drop.
Mealtimes are known as much for their delectable flavors as for their spectacular settings. Breakfast and lunch are typically al fresco affairs under the shady loom of Indigenous trees or with views over the river. Dinner is an altogether regal business, whether enjoyed under the softly lit glow of chandeliers or the silvery sparkle of the African night sky. Wildlife like zebras, giraffes, and various antelope species may occasionally wander through the hotel's gardens.
Two activities are included during your stay at the Royal Livingstone. The date and time will be determined after discussion.
Visit Mosi-oa-Tunya National Park accompanied by a private guide. The park is a UNESCO World Heritage Site overlooking Victoria Falls. You will visit various vantage points to view the falls and walk through the surrounding rainforest. These falls are genuinely a natural spectacle to behold. Explore the African curio market outside the park before returning to the hotel.
At a time to be agreed upon, you will be met at the hotel and transferred to the launch site of your cruise. Sip cocktails while watching the sunset over a magnificent wilderness with the occasional hippo snorting and birdsong filling the air.
After three nights of colonial luxury, the honeymoon couple will, after enjoying a last breakfast at the Royal Livingstone, be transferred to the Chobe National Park in Botswana. Guests will enjoy a stay at Chobe Chilwero, an enchanting place with breathtaking vistas over the Chobe River as a backdrop.
In Chobe guests will encounter the remarkable creatures of this African wilderness and some of the most spectacular sunsets mother nature has to offer. Three nights are spent at Chobe Chilwero Lodge. Guests will enjoy two safari activities each day. These safaris will alternate between open 4x4 game drives in the national park and water-based game viewing from the Chobe River. The safaris are led by skilled local rangers and trackers.
A last morning game activity and breakfast are followed by a transfer to Kasane Airport and from there a flight to Johannesburg. Guests are met at the airport and assisted with check-in to their international flight after a memorable honeymoon.
