* Horizon - From Windhoek to Cape Town - 22 Day Self Drive Safari

Share:

Introduction

Major highlights of Namibia and South Africa are wrapped up in this fabulous self-drive holiday - the Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park, the "Mother City" - Cape Town.  Overnight at selected accommodation - your entire holiday is designed around your requirements - pick and choose the places you want to visit.  This is a comfortably-paced cultural sightseeing holiday with some short walks and great adventures.

The red sand dunes, sparse vegetation and dry riverbeds at the Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park mould one of the best places in the world to see the big cats; lion, leopard and cheetah.

Most memorable for its wild desert scenery, Kgalagadi is nevertheless superb for predators, not only lion and leopard, but also smaller species such as black-backed jackal, bat-eared fox, Cape fox, caracal, meerkat and yellow mongoose.

Head south through the Western Cape to the area of the Cederberg Mountains - the Ceres valley produces some of the finest deciduous fruit in South Africa and is home to the internationally branded juices. Tantalize your taste buds with wine tastings overlooking the vineyards where the grapes were harvested … each one an exceptional experience heightened by the beauty of its setting in this the most beautiful wine valley in the world.

“Stuff your eyes with wonder. Live as if you'd drop dead in ten seconds. See the world. It's more fantastic than any dream made or paid for in factories. Ask no guarantees, ask for no security, there never was such an animal. And if there were, it would be related to the great sloth which hangs upside down in a tree all day every day, sleeping its life away. To hell with that . Shake the tree and knock the great sloth down on his ass.”  Ray Bradbury
