Wineries, Golf & Wildlife in the Cape & Kruger

ABOUT THIS ITINERARY:

If you fancy a bit of golf, a drop of wine, scenic vistas and seeing the Big 5, then this may be the itinerary for you.  Steenberg Estates is the regions oldest winery established in 1652.  With old world charm and new world luxury Steenberg is an incredible place to stay.  Play golf on their acclaimed golf course the do a wine tasting at 1652 bistro.  Enjoy the stunning scenery, world class spa facilities and exceptional food and wine parings.  With rooms that can overlook the vines and surrounded by tall mountains of Constantia you end up wanting to extend your stay.  Steenberg is also perfectly positioned to explore the Waterfront, Cape Peninsula and the Boulder Penguins and has easy access to Cape Town International Airport.  Not much more I can say about Steenberg except, wow, we loved it and I am sure you will too!  Take a scheduled flight to Skukuza airport in the South of Kruger National Park and then do a 2hr game drive to Jock Safari Lodge.  Placed on its own concession within the park, Jocks is spoilt for location and boasts fantastic wildlife.  Another 45minutes down the road lies Leopard Creek Golf Club, one of South Africa’s finest courses.  Only opened to a limited number of nearby lodges Leopard Creek is otherwise exclusive to members only.  Expertly designed along the crocodile river you know you playing golf in Africa when you playing at Leopard Creek.  Home to a number of top tournaments the course is always in top shape.  We love our golf and our safaris so we had a lot of fun designing (and testing) this itinerary.

Big thank you to Rowan at Sensational Africa for an amazing guided trip to Botswana and Zimbabwe. What an amazing host and experience with incredible wildlife. You planned my itinerary just right and all your recommendations were just perfect. You hit the mark with all the lodges with seamless transfers. I will definitely be booking my next trip soon back to Africa. I highly recommend Rowan and his team. Cheers from Canada, for now!

Thank you Rowan and team for organising our incredible trip to Africa. It was even more amazing than we’d hoped. The people, places and scenery really do have to be seen to be believed. Your knowledge of the local areas in Zimbabwe and Botswana helped to create a unique and tailored family experience!! And yes…that lion was about 2m away from our vehicle!!! 😬

Sensational Africa have done us proud. They recommended and then organised everything from our flights to baggage storage at Maun; an amazing safari experience deep in the Kalahari in Botswana at a Ker and Downey camp (Dinaka). Whilst there it rained and we witnessed the desert flora and fauna coming to life. From flowers that appear for just a few days a year, to migrating birds on a stopover, bullfrogs feasting on nuptial termites, and frolicking baby wildebeest and impala. Our trip was a delight, made even more special by the exceptional hospitality, comfort and safari guiding provided by Dinaka Camp. We thank Sensational Africa for their outstanding organisation taking into account our personal preferences and wishes. Margie and Alan.

After Covid restrictions we were finally able to indulge in an African Safari in Botswana’s Okavango Delta and Kalahari. Highly anticipated, it did not disappoint. 5 different lodges with superb accommodation, friendliest staff and the African bush wildlife at its best. Every day was filled with adventure. Based on Rowan’s personal experience, he planned a trip that was just right for us. We loved it and highly recommend Sensational Africa for any African adventure you are considering. Every step of the way had been arranged and we were in very capable hands at all times. Relax, take it all in and enjoy every minute!
