Discover the Splendour of South Africa

Imagine embarking on a once-in-a-lifetime adventure, waking to the calls of the wild in a luxury safari lodge. South Africa’s renowned national parks, such as Kruger National Park, invite you to witness the majestic Big Five in their natural habitat. These getaways offer exclusive travel packages South Africa is famed for, pairing thrilling wildlife encounters with opulent accommodations where service is an art form.

Luxe Safari: The Heart of Adventure

A journey through South Africa isn't complete without a safari. But it’s not just the wildlife that captivates—it’s the blend of adventure and comfort. Picture yourself enjoying sundowners while overlooking a sprawling savanna, or dining under the stars as traditional drumbeats echo in the distance. The careful curation of these experiences within South Africa five-star travel packages ensures that every moment is as luxurious as it is unforgettable.

City Chic: Culture Meets Luxury

For those who prefer urban elegance, the cities of Johannesburg and Cape Town are paradises of cultural richness and modern luxury. Cape Town, with its iconic Table Mountain, offers an urban escape with a touch of the exotic. Visit the historic Robben Island, stroll along the V&A Waterfront, or explore the colourful streets of Bo-Kaap. Each visit is a new chapter in South Africa’s vibrant narrative.

Culinary Journeys and Wine Adventures

South Africa tantalizes your taste buds with an impressive culinary scene and world-class vineyards. The Cape Winelands are a must-visit for wine aficionados, presenting an exquisite tapestry of flavours. Travel from Stellenbosch to Franschhoek, and indulge in exclusive tastings and gourmet experiences that are integral to South Africa vacations. Pair bold wines with equally bold scenery for a journey that delights the senses.

Safari and Beach: The Best of Both Worlds

Combining a safari with a beach retreat could be the epitome of indulgence. After encountering the wilderness, bask in the warm embrace of South Africa's pristine beaches. The exquisite resorts along the Garden Route or the paradisiacal beaches of KwaZulu-Natal offer relaxation at its finest, where turquoise waters and golden sands create a serene post-safari haven.

Practical Advice for an Unforgettable Journey

To ensure your South African journey is seamless, consider these tips:

  • Choose the Right Season: Each region has its own allure depending on the season. Safaris are typically best during the dry winter months.
  • Travel Light and Smart: While luxury accommodations cater to most needs, packing light helps with the frequent transitions between destinations.
  • Embrace Local Culture: Engaging with local communities and cultural practices enhances the richness of your experience.

With so many experiences to offer, South Africa is more than just a destination; it's a world of its own. Whether you're drawn by the call of the wild or the allure of luxurious cityscapes, exclusive travel packages South Africa promises to fulfil every traveller’s desire.

Everything was expertly planned, from the drivers to the hotels to the tours to the flights. We particularly enjoyed Hobart and the animal sanctuary, Adelaide and the trip to Kangaroo Island, Melbourne and the evening tour with dinner and drinks, and Sydney with the private boat cruise of the Harbour. We will definitely use Goway again.SARA Wiebe

There were 4 travelers on this trip. All of us were in our late 70's. We started planning this trip 6 months prior to our travel date and had a lot of questions regarding this trip. Our Goway Travel Specialist, Karen Larrota, always answered our questions in a timely and complete manner. We traveled to Quito, Ecuador, the Galapagos, The Sacred Valley in Peru, Machu Picchu, and Cusco in Peru. Not only were the destinations and accommodations excellent, but every tour guide and driver were beyond excellent. The entire trip went smoothly every step of the way, which was amazing given the fact that there were numerous flights and hotels included in our package. We found out that the tour company that Goway used, Condor Travel, checked on us with our guide to make sure we were doing OK which we thought was very nice but also amusing as we are fairly fit older adults. Would also like to mention that we did a cruise thru the Galapagos on the Galapagos Legend which was arranged thru Go Galapagos - Kleintouurs. This portion of our tour was also excellent as were the wildlife guides and staff. We continue to discuss how wonderful this trip was with our family and friends and how wonderful this experience was. Would definately use Goway for our travel needs in the future.Dianne

After spending some time with our agent, we felt that she understood exactly what we had in mind as far as the level of service, etc, we were hoping for. The trip exceeded our expectations. Lori kept us busy(not too busy!) and we had many, many very exciting experiences. Bruce Belshaw

Aylin is an exceptionally proficient advisor. Coordinating my clients simultaneously often feels like herding cats, but she has remained patient and accommodating through every modification and delay. Goway continues to be my go-to for complex itineraries, and they never disappoint.Nick Cron, ACC

My daughter and I had a wonderful 2 weeks in New Zealand! The country is so beautiful and the people so friendly. Our destination specialist did a great job with planning and organizing the itinerary, choosing our hotels, and organizing transportation. The hotels were absolutely beautiful and we had great views. We felt right at home and found all of the staff to be friendly and accommodating. There were no issues with our itinerary and our excursions we were always on the list. Our transportation was always ready and waiting for us. We want to thank Goway Travel for their hard work and patience with us in planning this trip. Any changes that needed to be made were communicated timely. We also want to thank you for the beautiful weather during the entire 2 weeks it was perfect every day 😀. It was a memorable trip that we will never forget and we will think of Goway when we plan our next adventure. Because it was not just a vacation; it was an adventure!Connie Wenhardt

Brigitta Fuller is Amazing! She was my group coordinator. She understood the assignment and all the nuances I was trying to achieve. The itinerary she curated was fantastic. If you want someone who truly cares about her group and what they are trying to achieve. I will always reach out to Brigitta first for Europe groups. Kathryn Walker

My clients had a wonderful time on their trip to Easter Island. They were very pleased with the Hare Nua Hotel Boutique and especially noted the warmth and hospitality of the hotel staff as well as their excellent breakfasts. Jaime Vargas-Hendandez was an exceptionally gracious and knowledgeable agent, who went out of his way to ensure that my clients had the best possible experience. I will definitely contact him for future bookings and will recommend him to my colleagues.Alethea Kardas
