Suggested Routes and Holiday Ideas
Luxury Holidays, City & Safari Holidays, Family Holidays and more
Travel Butlers produce itineraries which are individually tailored to our clients interests, budget and needs. This means that each holiday that we prepare is unique rather than off-the-shelf.
The suggestions listed below outline some of the most popular routes with our clients, and in most cases these routes can be enjoyed either on a moderate budget or in lavish 5* luxury.
Many of our clients choose a middle path of moderately priced accommodation for much of their trip with a few luxury nights in the highlight destinations.
Have a look at these suggestions, and if you would like us to use one of these as a starting point for preparing your own unique South African holiday simply complete the enquiry form or give us a call.
When you get in touch with Travel Butlers, one of our experienced Travel Consultants will get back to you with a personalised suggestion for your holiday based on what interests you, and then your consultant will work you to ammend and adjust your trip until you are 100% happy with everything.

Cape Town and Greater Kruger Safari (1 week)

Cape Town, the Lowveld, and Greater Kruger Safari (2 weeks)


Whilst it is definitely possible to see Cape Town and Kruger in just 7 days, if you have more time you can enjoy a more relaxed trip and see much more of what is on offer.
