Cape Town & Surrounds

Tucked into the foot of iconic Table Mountain, Cape Town is regularly voted one of the most beautiful cities on the planet. It offers the perfect balance of a fascinating history and vibrant contemporary culture, along with picturesque urban settings and startling natural scenery.

Property

Ellerman House

Deluxe Spa Room, Bed & Breakfast

Paul Harris's former Bantry Bay mansion shelters 1,000+ South African artworks across 13 rooms and two villas, where guests raid the 24-hour pantry stocked with koeksisters while contemplating William Kentridge pieces normally behind museum glass. Positioned 150 metres above the Atlantic on Lion's Head's slopes, the property includes a 9,000-bottle wine collection displayed in a corkscrew-shaped glass gallery. At Ellerman House, everything is excessive – the art, the wine, the service, the cake pantry – yet somehow this magnificent madness coheres into something you'll never forget.

The Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park

The Kalahari is true country for the soul. Out here, where horizons are wide and the skies even bigger, lone acacia trees stand in silhouette against the stars. Clusters of pale shrubs litter the deep orange landscape and herds of antelope migrate along dry riverbeds. This extensive arid land falls within the least populated area in the country – the population density is only 3,1 people per square kilometre in the remote Northern Cape – and to experience the silence of this place is truly remarkable.

Johannesburg & Surrounds

Often overlooked as a tourist destination, Johannesburg – or Joburg as it’s commonly known – offers vibrant urban experiences that leave you with little doubt: this city really is the urban and economic heart of the continent. Throw in trendy neighbourhoods, fascinating historic and prehistoric sites and beautiful natural attractions, and you’ll wonder why you didn’t plan to stay longer.

Property

Saxon Hotel Villas & Spa

Luxury Room, Bed & Breakfast

Nelson Mandela wrote "Long Walk to Freedom" in this former Sandhurst mansion, now Johannesburg's most awarded boutique hotel with eleven consecutive World Travel Awards. The 53-suite property spreads across ten acres of indigenous gardens, where 330 staff create near-telepathic service behind security walls. Five minutes from Sandton yet completely removed from its energy, The Saxon offers Johannesburg's ultimate escape—complete with a world-class spa, Qunu's celebrated African fine dining, and the 400-square-metre suite where Mandela once lived.

Okavango Delta & Moremi Game Reserve

The tapestry of islands and waterways that make up the Okavango Delta is up there in any top ten of the world’s top wildlife destinations. It is home both to resident wetland species, such as hippos and red lechwe, and prolific seasonal big game, including elephant and buffalo. Predators are legion, while special attractions include sitatunga and Pel’s fishing owl. The landscape changes with the floods from year to year. At its heart lies Moremi Game Reserve, where much of the game concentrates. Abutting this public reserve, a number of private concessions offer exclusive fly-in safaris, while, to the west, the Panhandle region is known for its fishing and birding.

Linyanti, Kwando & Selinda

The Linyanti region lies in northern Botswana, between the Okavango Delta and Namibia’s Caprivi strip. This wild region comprises a tapestry of river, swamp and mopane woodland, fed by the Kwando and Linyanti rivers. It shares its basic ecology with the Okavango and Chobe, which it borders to the south and east respectively. Wildlife includes large herds of elephant, buffalo and zebra, plus numerous predators, which move freely across the region in response to the seasonal rains. The area falls into three privately managed concessions: the Linyanti, Kwando and Selinda. Each has its own particular terrain and wildlife specialities, but all offer outstanding safaris from some of Africa’s most exclusive private lodges.

Property

Selinda Camp

Luxury Tent, Fully Inclusive

A Great Plains Conservation property, Selinda Camp is also co-owned by wildlife filmmakers Dereck and Beverly Joubert. Blending a classic bush camp with all the contemporary amenities, Selinda resembles the traditional thatched Sangwali homes of the area and embraces its natural surroundings to create a comfortable and luxurious stay.
