Suggested Holiday Itinerary
Summary Of The Route and Costs
Escape to another world on this 9 night itinerary. Enjoy a 4 night safari deep in the African bushveld in a 5* lodge overlooking a waterhole and an open plain. Then immerse yourself in a private tropical island sanctuary where exotic beauty takes centre stage.
Sabi Sabi Bush Lodge has earned a reputation of a 'luxury home in the bush', and is renowned for the excellent service and effortless personal attention. The conventional safari style showcases a vibrant and eclectic mix of furnishings and decor garnered from all corners of the African continent. Two swimming pools and large covered viewing decks overhanging the riverbed are an invitation to cool off in the filtered water or sit in comfort while spotting game at the well-utilised waterhole. Morning and afternoon game drives take you deep into the African bush in search of the wildlife. And if that is not enticing enough, the lodge is running a Stay 4/Pay 3 offer during selected periods - so your last night's accommdation is completely free.
After a night in Johannesburg, fly across to Seychelles for 4 nights on the island of Mahe. Enjoy the untouched and unspoiled beauty of Seychelles at Hilton Seychelles Northolme Resort & Spa. With a legacy as one of Mahe's most historic hotels and a fascinating connection to James Bond author Ian Fleming, the Hilton Northolme Resort & Spa on the island’s northwest coast comprises tree-house style villas overlooking Beau Vallon Bay and the distant islands of Silhouette and North.
