There's nowhere quite like South Africa for a top-notch safari experience, and your safari begins now – lucky you! We'll let you know what lies ahead, then get this trip of a lifetime started.

Cape Town is the oldest city in South Africa, founded by Dutch seafarers in 1652. It is also the most beautiful thanks to an iconic seafront location below Table Mountain.
