جنوب أفريقيا

The most straightforward first safari, with short transfers

Private reserves beside Kruger offer very reliable leopard viewing

Malaria-free reserve options, which matters for families

Combines a safari with cities, winelands and coastline

Strong value across a wide range of budgets

Kruger itself can feel busy and self-drive heavy in peak season

Urban crime is a real consideration and needs planning around

Less remote-wilderness feel than Botswana or Zambia
