South Africa is an incredible all-rounder for a family holiday– a country that has it all: beaches, bush, mountains, wildlife, vibrant cities, and rich cultural heritage. We love it for the sheer variety of experiences on offer, from Big 5 safaris and conservation projects to epic hikes, coastal road trips, and time spent exploring Cape Town’s many sides (and beaches – always wind-dependent!).

Whether you want to ride horses through the Waterberg, kayak the Orange River, snorkel in kelp forests, or track rhinos with researchers in the bush, there’s something here for every age and every kind of family. And with so many malaria-free options, it’s great for younger kids too. We’ll tailor your trip to suit the season and your style, making sure every day is filled with unforgettable moments and just the right balance of adventure and downtime.
