      Overview

      Discover the Wonders of Southern Africa - Greater Kruger and Mozambique

      Journey on an extraordinary adventure across Southern Africa with our captivating 7-night package, featuring the region's most renowned locations: Thornybush Game Reserve and the stunning Mozambique.

      Thornybush Game Reserve

      Commence your safari journey at the esteemed Thornybush Game Reserve, which forms part of the Greater Kruger National Park. In this remarkable setting, engage in intimate encounters with Africa's magnificent wildlife through thrilling game drives conducted by knowledgeable guides. From the iconic Big Five to the elusive leopards, every instant in this unspoiled wilderness guarantees breathtaking wildlife observations.

      Santorini Mozambique

      Experience the allure of Santorini, a stunning island in the Cyclades archipelago of the Aegean Sea. This remarkable destination was profoundly altered by a volcanic eruption in the 16th century BC, which has left its rugged terrain uniquely shaped. The iconic whitewashed, cubic homes of its two main towns, Fira and Oia, are perched on cliffs that rise above an underwater caldera. These towns provide breathtaking views of the sea, nearby small islands to the west, and beaches composed of black, red, and white lava pebbles. Revel in the untouched vistas of pristine white sand that stretch for miles. With an abundance of modern comforts at your disposal, take the opportunity to unwind and immerse yourself in one of the last hidden beach paradises in the world.
