9-Nights Making Memories in South Africa from $20,790

Day 1 Welcome to Cape Town, South Africa
Upon arrival into Cape Town you will be greeted and transferred to your accommodation.

South Africa's “Mother City” is indescribably beautiful, steeped in fascinating history and pulsating to a heady African rhythm. Indeed, few urban centers anywhere can match its setting along the mountainous Cape Peninsula spine, which slides into the Atlantic Ocean. A ride in a cable car to the top of Table Mountain, a ferry journey to Robben Island, or a meandering tour through the Winelands will leave you in no doubt that this place is an absolute highlight on any vacation to Africa.

Day 2 Cape Town City, Table Mountain and Kirstenbosch Exploration
Set out on a full day of discovery into Cape Town's highlights. The day starts with a summit of iconic Table Mountain, rising dramatically above the vibrant city of Cape Town. Descending back to sea level, your journey continues to the lush slopes of Kirstenbosch National Botanical Garden, set against the eastern face of the mountain. Explore forested pathways and wander along the elevated Boomslang Tree Canopy Walkway suspended gently above the gardens. The afternoon shifts up a gear with an exhilarating zipline experience in Table Mountain National Park. Starting high on the mountainside, you will clip in and soar across dramatic canyons on one of Africa's longest zipline courses. As the day winds down, you will head to a hidden viewpoint overlooking the city and mountains, the perfect setting to reflect on a day that balanced nature, adventure, learning and unforgettable family moments.

Day 4 Cape Winelands Exploration
The Winelands are best experienced beyond the car window, where mountains feel closer, vineyards stretch endlessly and families have space to breathe. Today is about discovering this beautiful region in a way that keeps both parents and children fully engaged. Beginning in the dramatic Banhoek Valley, tucked between Stellenbosch and Franschhoek, the adventure starts from top of the slopes gliding down mountain tracks on non-motorized scooters. Professional guides lead the way, ensuring safety and confidence. From mountain thrills to farm life, enjoy time on a picturesque estate in the valley. While parents enjoy a refined tasting, children are free to explore the open spaces with their guide. This afternoon continues with a heartwarming visit to Farm Sanctuary SA, a haven for rescued farm animals. This meaningful stop invites children to connect with animals in a gentle and educational way, learning about ethical farming and compassion. End the day exploring the charming village of Franschhoek before returning to the city.
