Why This Trip

Why this route

A slower, more immersive version for guests who want to linger rather than move fast — where pace, not just access, is part of the exclusivity. The name pairs the two poles of the Cape leg — untouched coastal wilderness at Cape Point and a private Marine Big Five encounter by private boat, against the cultivated elegance of two unhurried days across hand-picked Franschhoek and Stellenbosch estates — with a dedicated rest day and an in-hotel spa treatment built into the schedule, moved between throughout in an ultra-exclusive, Range Rover-tier chauffeur-driven vehicle. From here, the journey continues seamlessly into three nights of genuine big game safari in the Okavango Delta or Selinda Reserve, at a camp chosen for its suites and its guiding rather than simply its setting.

Trip Highlights

What makes it exceptional

  • A dedicated chauffeur fleet for every transfer, arrival to departure
  • A scenic private drive to Cape Point with time in the reserve to take in the Fynbos
  • A private Marine Big Five experience by boat — whale, dolphin, seal, penguin, and shark habitat, sightings dependent on season and conditions
  • Two full days across the Winelands, taking in Franschhoek and Stellenbosch estates for tastings, lunches, and a private sundowners table
  • A dedicated rest day with an in-hotel spa treatment built into the schedule
  • Fine dining every evening in Cape Town, with no repeated venues across the stay
  • Upon arrival in Maun, you are met by our representative and assisted directly to the helicopter for the onward flight to camp
  • Three nights in the Okavango Delta or Selinda Reserve, in a magnificent suite, on a fully inclusive basis with activities included (Diamond Class) — other classes available
  • A private guide and private vehicle for the full duration of your safari stay
  • A return private helicopter journey to Maun, where you are once again met and assisted with your onward journey
  • For guests returning to Johannesburg who'd rather not fly commercial Economy, a private charter can easily be arranged from the camp airstrip directly to Johannesburg International, or further afield
