Cape Town, Winelands & Inverdoorn Safari
City, Vineyards and a Karoo Big Five Night
Overview
Three days that put the three sides of the Cape together — the city, the vineyards and a Big Five night in the Karoo — without a single internal flight. You spend a day on the Cape Peninsula and Table Mountain, a day among the Franschhoek and Stellenbosch vineyards, and then drive out to Inverdoorn for an overnight safari and the cheetahs. It is the trip for people who have a long weekend around Cape Town and want the city and the bush in the same breath rather than choosing between them.
A private guide stays with you from the first morning to the last, and every transfer is included, so the three very different days join up without fuss. The safari night at Inverdoorn follows the same pattern we recommend to everyone: an afternoon drive on arrival, dinner under the Karoo stars, the Cheetah Run, and a dawn drive before the return to Cape Town. Accommodation can be set to your taste, from characterful guesthouses to the finest Winelands estates — we quote the grade that suits your group.
Who It's For
Made for visitors with a long weekend around Cape Town who want city, wine and wildlife in one run, for couples after a varied short break, and for anyone who would rather drive the Cape than fly to a distant safari park.

Best Time to Travel
Autumn and winter, from March to September, give the best mix for this trip — clear Cape days, sharp Karoo mornings for game viewing and quieter vineyards. Spring and early summer are fine too, though the city is busier over the festive weeks.
