An idyllic safari & beach holiday packed with unforgettable moments
This two-week luxury safari and beach holiday blends the drama of a South Africa Big Five safari with the tranquillity of Seychelles’ soft white sands. Track lion and elephant on game drives through the untamed Makalali Conservancy, soak in a private star bath at Garonga Safari Camp, and fall asleep under the stars on your own sleep-out deck. Then trade bushveld for beach with six nights of barefoot serenity at Constance Ephelia, where jungle-covered hills meet coral reefs and slow days melt into balmy nights. It’s romance, relaxation and rich wildlife in perfect harmony.

Safari & Seychelles Special
Tour itinerary
Leave London behind for South Africa’s safari paradise
Fly overnight from the UK to Johannesburg where you will connect with your flight to Hoedspruit.
You will be met and transferred to the Makalali Conservancy to spend 5 nights at Garonga Safari Lodge (all meals & local drinks included). A huge favourite of ours, Garonga offers beautiful accommodation, an exclusive safari, and first-class hospitality. Special offer: Stay 5 nights, pay for 4.
Settle into safari life with lunch on the deck, followed by your first afternoon game drive. Return to flickering lanterns, a starlit dinner, or an indulgent soak in the outdoor star bath.
Game drives, walking safaris & an optional night under the stars
Four full days of exciting safari! Head out on twice daily game drives with the experienced and knowledgeable guides for some serious animal encounters. As well as looking for as many of the Big 5 as you can, you should also keep an eye out for colourful birdlife and diverse plains animals. Stretch your legs on a walking safari (subject to availability), and get closer to the nature of the area around you, before you cool off in the pool after a day spent in the African sun.
Head to the Massage Sala for a spa treatment to relax and unwind, or book the sleep-out deck for some time on your own, and a night in the middle of the bush.
Savour one last safari experience
You’ll rise very early for your final morning safari, for a last chance to see predators returning from nocturnal hunts, or early morning herbivores stirring. Afterwards, enjoy a hearty brunch, the camp’s spread is exceptional, before collecting your luggage, and being transferred back to Hoedspruit Airport to catch a flight back to Johannesburg.
On arrival, catch the airport shuttle to the airport hotel Garden Court O R Tambo where you will spend 1 night with breakfast included.
Leave behind Johannesburg for the Seychelles - Say hello to paradise on Mahe Island!
Catch the shuttle back to Johannesburg Airport to check-in for your flight to the Seychelles. On arrival you will be whisked to your Indian Ocean hideaway at Constance Ephelia where you will spend 6 nights on two of the best beaches on Mahe (with breakfast & dinner included).
The resort is surrounded by lush hills and a national marine park, with spacious suites, an excellent spa, and five restaurants to choose from.
Seychelles serenity at your own pace
Five days free to enjoy paradise. Constance Ephelia offers complimentary non-motorised water-sports including kayaking, pedal boats, windsurfing and catamaran sailing, or you can snorkel directly off the beach. On land, explore walking trails through jungle to hidden coves, or enjoy sunset cocktails with a view.
We can help arrange other activities. Diving, fishing and cycling. Just give us a call!
Or do nothing at all. Just you, the sea and your sun lounger.
Bid farewell to the Seychelles
Enjoy one more sunrise walk on the beach, a spa treatment, or a last dip in the sea. Then you’ll be transferred to Mahé Airport for your overnight flight home, carrying with you memories of big game, barefoot serenity, and the soft rhythms of island life.
Welcome home – time to show off all your photos!
