South Africa: Birding the Fairest Cape to Kruger NP

South Africa is a spectacularly beautiful country that is rich in wildlife. In the southwest there are two unique habitats: the stark heath-like fynbos and the expansive semi-desert Karoo. In the northeast, South Africa metamorphoses into golden-green grasslands and tropical savanna and species diversity increases dramatically. Spectacular species include a host of bee-eaters, hornbills, kingfishers, barbets, and sunbirds. We can expect to see over 400 bird species on this tour. The main tour is fun, and focusses on the unforgettable and unmissable Cape and Kruger sectors of the country. We travel through these areas in style, enjoying all the birds, fauna and flora. We sill enjoy Kruger in a luxurious open-topped land-cruiser, making sure we do not spend unnecessary hours driving in a car, nor having a cramped game-viewing experience in a van like many of our competitors. The extension is more endemic-bird focused, to satisfy more serious birders with a long haul of specialty birds. So whether you prefer a premium highlights package that includes lots of mammals, or have a travel partner who prefers that, or a trip that includes lots of endemic birds, this intuitive-design itinerary can tick all the boxes.
