Hermanus & The Whale Coast

Day 1

Fly overnight to Johannesburg

Day 2

Short internal flight onto the Kruger. On arrival in Hoedspruit you will be met and transferred to your safari lodge where you will stay for three nights on safari. Enjoy the game drive this afternoon.

Day 3-4

You have twice-daily game drives with professional rangers that will allow you to get incredibly close to the big game, and teach you all about the bush: a real privilege and a thrill.

Day 5

Enjoy the morning on safari before being collected and transferred to Hoedspruit Airport where you will collect your hire car and drive to the Escarpment area where you will stay for three nights.

Day 6

Drive the stunning Panorama Route taking in sights such as the Blyde River Canyon and Bourke’s Luck Potholes.

Day 7

Maybe enjoy a day of hiking to stretch your legs and enjoy the freedom after being on safari.

Day 8

Drive to Kruger Airport and fly to Cape Town. On arrival in Cape Town you will be met and transferred to your guesthouse where you will stay for three nights.

Day 9

Combining visits to Table Mountain and Robben Island makes for a good day.

Day 10

A full day exploring the Cape Peninsula is something I strongly recommend (and this is where you need to go to see the penguins at Boulder’s Beach).

Day 11

Head south to Hermanus today for a three night stay, maybe travelling via the Winelands.

Day 12

Take a boat trip to see the whales, as well as other marine life. This afternoon you might want to walk along the coastline to see the whales.

Day 13

Explore the local wine area or maybe go shark cage diving.

Day 14

Enjoy a leisurely breakfast in Hermanus before driving to Cape Town Airport in time to drop off your hire car and for your indirect flight back to London

This itinerary is perfect during our Summer months as the Kruger and Escarpment areas are nice and dry and you get the chance to go whale watching in Hermanus (June to November), which is famed for having the best land-based whale watching in the world as well as visiting the colourful Cape Town. Three nights in the Kruger is the ultimate way to start your time in South Africa, you head out each day into the bush to see what close encounters await with Africa’s big game. From here you head to the Escarpment and the stunning vistas of the area. Cape Town is a world-class city with an amazing location, superb hotels and a great vibe, and should be the cornerstone of any visit to South Africa. The finale is Hermanus with chances to see southern-right whales and maybe going shark cage diving (if you are brave enough).

3 nights Kruger Safari – 3 nights Escarpment – 3 nights Cape Town – 2 nights Hermanus
