There, they enjoyed easy access to all of Cape Town’s attractions, including cultural sites, world-class restaurants, and lovely beaches. During their stay in Cape Town, the took the cableway up Table Mountain, visited historic Robben Island, enjoyed a day on the beach, and went shopping on the bustling V&A Waterfront. They also made the trip to nearby Boulders Beach for an up-close view of South Africa’s penguins.

They stayed at Notten’s Bush Camp, a luxurious, family-run camp in the Sabi Sands region of Kruger. Kids stay for free at this camp, making it an ideal family destination. From their cozy suite, they had excellent views of the African plains and a nearby waterhole where wildlife congregates. They enjoyed thrilling morning and evening game drives to see the Big 5 of Africa and had several leopard sightings. They also opted for a bush walk one day for a more intimate safari experience. Back at the camp, they enjoyed relaxing spa treatments, kid-friendly activities, and delicious outdoor boma dinners.

After 5 fabulous nights on safari, their Family Vacation Packages South Africa: Safari Adventure came to an end. They said goodbye to beautiful South Africa and transferred to the airport to begin their journey home.
