Cape Town is truly one of those ‘have-it-all’ cities. Residents are surrounded by beautiful mountains and beaches, historical landmarks, and the bottle-green valleys of the Cape Winelands.

Most visitors spend at least three to four days (five or six are even better) exploring South Africa’s oldest city, enjoying its smorgasbord of activities and being immersed in its incredible natural beauty.

Embark on the romantic adventure of a lifetime with an African Safari! A journey designed for couples seeking an unforgettable blend of luxury, wildlife, and breathtaking landscapes. This once-in-a-lifetime experience takes you deep into the heart of Tanzania’s legendary safari destinations, where you’ll witness the Big Five in their natural habitat, sip champagne under the vast African sky, and relax in some of the world’s most exquisite lodges and tented camps.

From the iconic Serengeti to the stunning Ngorongoro Crater, this safari immerses you in the raw beauty of Africa while indulging you in five-star service, intimate bush dinners, and exclusive game drives. 

This is more than a romance trip—it’s an extraordinary love story written across the landscapes of Africa. 

 

The best time to visit 

January is the best time to visit Cape Town for any outdoor activity. By February, the peak holiday season in Cape Town is coming to an end and popular destinations are less crowded.  March is not too hot, not too windy, and not too wet.  Autumn arrives in the city in April & May, a great time to explore the many indoor markets and live music venues. April is the Cape Town Jazz Festival, showcasing artists from all over the globe.  From late June to August, this is the best time to go to Cape Town for surfing as conditions are just right. The best time to go whale watching is from July to September. Spring officially starts in the Mother City in September.  October offers mild weather. In November things start to heat up. Cape Town experiences it's hottest weather in December.
