Safari Destinations

Travel Butlers work with over 150 safari lodges across South Africa and Namibia, and we have personally visited over 100 of these. This extensive experience means we are ideally placed to help you find the African Safari that is best for you.

You can either ask us to recommend a safari or holiday for you to consider, or research your trip for yourself with our extensive Safari Guide and tips for booking a budget safari or family safari.

Shamwari

Shamwari has received many awards for its conservation work in South Africa's malaria-free Eastern Cape. It is an ideal choice for those who wish to combine the ever-popular Cape Town and Garden Route with a truly memorable safari. 

Kruger

The Kruger National Park offers some of the best game viewing to be found anywhere in Africa.

Whether you stay in a luxury lodge in one of the private reserves adjoining the Park, or you self-drive through the Park, your South African safari will be totally unforgettable.

Cape Town and The Garden Route

Cape Town is one of the world's most beautiful cities, and many of the most popular South African safari holiday routes combine a few days here with a trip along the Garden Route and a safari in the Eastern Cape or Greater Kruger Park.

The most popular route with first time visitors is a 10-12 day itineray focusing on Namibia's highlights, whilst some visitors working on a shorter time frame will concentrate on the wildlife of northern Namibia on a One Week Namibian Safari holiday.
