South Africa Tours & Itineraries

Explore 204 trips designed by local kimkim specialists to get ideas for your trip to South Africa.

While a brief visit can offer a glimpse into the vibrant city life of Johannesburg or Cape Town, to truly immerse yourself in South Africa's diverse beauty, we recommend spending at least seven days. With this time, you can explore the iconic Table Mountain and Cape Winelands or venture into Kruger National Park for a safari experience. With 10 to 14 days, you can extend your journey to include the Garden Route, the historic battlefields of KwaZulu-Natal, or the picturesque beaches of the Eastern Cape.

For those with 14 days or more, South Africa's rich tapestry truly unfolds. You can explore the lesser-known but equally mesmerizing regions like the wild West Coast or the culturally vibrant Limpopo province. You'll have time to delve deeper into the country's history in places like Robben Island and Soweto and even cross borders into the neighboring countries of Botswana or Zimbabwe for a more extensive Southern African experience.

No matter your timeframe, our local specialists are on hand to craft the perfect itinerary for you, balancing wildlife adventures, cultural insights, and relaxation. Check out the itineraries below for more ideas and inspiration, and start planning your South African journey.
