Facile
Easy for ages 6 to 80: most days are 1 to 3 hours on foot on flat paths, boardwalks and pavements, with a rest or pool time after lunch. The Table Mountain summit loop is about an hour on level paths with benches; Boulders is a boardwalk; Cape Point has a funicular. The effort on safari is early starts, about 5 to 6 am, and about three hours seated in an open vehicle per drive, with a high step up. Every drive and the Kruger National Park day can be swapped for time at the lodge.

Arrive in Cape Town
Cape Town International Airport to your hotel in central Cape Town
- Welcome dinner at about 6 pm
- Nuit : Cape Town
- Environ 30 min de route
Fly into Cape Town International Airport (CPT), about 20 km east of the city, where a driver meets you in the arrivals hall and loads the bags; the drive takes about half an hour. Our hotel is central, near the V&A Waterfront or in the City Bowl, with family or connecting rooms requested and a pool where the hotel has one; we name it when we confirm your dates. Table Mountain fills the view above the city, and if its flat top is clear, point it out to the children before the cloud the locals call the tablecloth rolls over it.
Après-midi
Try to land by mid-afternoon and rest. At about 5 pm your See Sight Tours guide meets everyone for a short briefing: how the Cape Town days swap around the weather, what to pack for safari and how the flights work.
Soir
Then a welcome dinner at about 6 pm, early enough for tired travellers of every age.
Compris
- Pick-up at Cape Town International Airport (CPT)
- Welcome briefing with your guide
- Welcome dinner
Temps libre : Free until the evening briefing: the hotel pool or a rest after the flight
Table Mountain and the aquarium
Up Table Mountain by cableway, lunch in the Bo-Kaap, then the Two Oceans Aquarium at the V&A Waterfront
- Petit-déjeuner et repas du midi
- Nuit : Cape Town
- Environ 30 min de route
Matin
We leave the hotel at about 8 am to ride the Table Mountain Aerial Cableway in the first cars of the morning, before the queues and while the summit is most often clear. The floor of the car turns as it climbs, so everyone gets the view, and children love it. On top, a level loop of about an hour with benches looks over Table Bay to Robben Island, along the Twelve Apostles and down onto Lion's Head; look for dassies, the small furry rock hyraxes, sunning on the rocks. If wind closes the cableway, we swap today with day 3 or day 4.
Après-midi
Down the mountain, we stroll a few painted streets of the Bo-Kaap and sit down to a Cape Malay lunch of mild curry and samoosas. After lunch, the Two Oceans Aquarium at the Waterfront: sharks, rays, penguins and a kelp forest, about an hour and a half, all on one level. The late afternoon is free.
Compris
- Table Mountain Aerial Cableway, return ticket
- Summit loop with your guide
- Short stroll in the Bo-Kaap and a sit-down Cape Malay lunch
- Two Oceans Aquarium, V&A Waterfront
Option plus facile : Stay on the short paths near the upper cable station, with benches and a cafe, and rest at the hotel instead of the aquarium.
Option plus active : Hike up Platteklip Gorge with a mountain guide, two to three hours of steep stone steps for fit teens and adults, and meet the family at the top.
Temps libre : Late afternoon free: the hotel pool, the Waterfront's playgrounds and boats, or a rest
Activité : About an hour on level paths on top. Bring a warm layer: the summit is often windy and cooler than the city.
Penguins and Cape Point
Cape Town down the False Bay side to Boulders Beach and Cape Point, back by Chapman's Peak Drive
- Petit-déjeuner et repas du midi
- Nuit : Cape Town
- Environ 3 h de route
We leave at about 8 am down the False Bay side, past the coloured beach huts of Muizenberg and the naval town of Simon's Town, with a short stop to stretch, to reach Boulders Beach before the coaches. From the boardwalks above the granite coves, African penguins waddle, nest and squabble a few metres away. They are critically endangered, so we watch from the boardwalks and never touch. Next is Cape Point in Table Mountain National Park: the Flying Dutchman funicular carries everyone up to the old lighthouse for the long view down the cliffs, and we stop at the Cape of Good Hope sign for the family photo. Watch for ostriches, bontebok and baboons, which must never be fed.
Après-midi
Lunch is a sit-down meal by the sea, with a children's menu. We drive home along the Atlantic side on Chapman's Peak Drive, cliffs above the sea, and are back at the hotel by about 4 pm for the pool.
Compris
- Boulders Beach penguin colony, with the park fee
- Cape Point, with the Flying Dutchman funicular both ways
- The Cape of Good Hope, with the Table Mountain National Park fee
- Sit-down lunch on the peninsula
- Chapman's Peak Drive, with the toll
Option plus facile : Ride the funicular both ways and wait in the vehicle or the cafe between viewpoints; every stop is a short walk from parking.
Option plus active : Walk the cliff path from Cape Point to the Cape of Good Hope, about 1.5 hours, and meet the vehicle at the sign.
Temps libre : Back by about 4 pm: the pool, then a free evening
Activité : About three hours of driving split into four legs, the longest about an hour and a quarter. If Chapman's Peak Drive is closed, we return over Ou Kaapse Weg.
Robben Island, then the Winelands
The V&A Waterfront ferry to Robben Island, then Cape Town to Stellenbosch
- Petit-déjeuner et repas du midi
- Nuit : Stellenbosch
- Environ 1 h de route
Matin
Bags go in the vehicle after breakfast, and we walk to the Robben Island ferry at the V&A Waterfront for a morning sailing, about half an hour each way across Table Bay, with Table Mountain behind you on the way back. Robben Island is a UNESCO World Heritage Site where Nelson Mandela spent 18 of his 27 years in prison. Museum guides take the group by bus around the island and on foot through the maximum-security prison to his cell, about three and a half hours in all with the crossing. It is a story for every age: grandparents remember the news of his release, and children see where it happened. If the sea cancels the ferry, we try day 2 or day 3.
Après-midi
Lunch is at the Waterfront, then about an hour's drive east through vineyards to Stellenbosch, where we check in for two nights by about 3:30 pm.
Soir
The rest of the day is the pool and a free evening.
Compris
- Robben Island ferry and museum tour
- Lunch at the V&A Waterfront
- Transfer to Stellenbosch
Option plus facile : Stay on the island bus for the whole tour and skip the prison walk; the guide meets you after.
Temps libre : From about 3:30 pm: the hotel pool and a free evening in the old town
Activité : About an hour on foot in the prison, on flat floors. The ferry is weather-dependent and tickets are booked ahead.
Franschhoek and old Stellenbosch
Stellenbosch over the Helshoogte Pass to Franschhoek and back
- Petit-déjeuner, repas du midi et repas du soir
- Nuit : Stellenbosch
- Environ 1.5 h de route
A slow start, then about 40 minutes over the Helshoogte Pass to Franschhoek, a valley of vineyards closed in by mountains. French Huguenot refugees settled here from 1688, and the Huguenot Monument at the end of the main street remembers them; children can run on the lawns while the guide tells the story.
Après-midi
We taste at one wine estate, chosen for space outside, where the adults taste wine and the children get grape juice or a food pairing, then sit down to a long lunch in the valley. Back in Stellenbosch by about 2:30 pm, the afternoon is the pool. At about 4:30 the guide takes a gentle 45-minute stroll along Dorp Street's Cape Dutch houses, then the Village Museum quarter and the old town square. Stellenbosch was founded in 1679.
Soir
Dinner together is at about 6 pm in the old town, a short walk from the hotel.
Compris
- Huguenot Monument, Franschhoek
- Wine tasting at a Franschhoek estate, with grape juice for children
- Long sit-down lunch in Franschhoek
- Guided stroll in old Stellenbosch: Dorp Street, the Village Museum houses and the Braak
- Group dinner in Stellenbosch
Option plus facile : Skip the evening stroll and stay at the pool until dinner.
Option plus active : Ride an e-bike between Franschhoek estates with a local guide, for teens and adults, on farm roads (confirmed at booking).
Temps libre : Afternoon free at the pool from about 2:30 pm
Fly to the bushveld
Stellenbosch to Cape Town International Airport, fly to Hoedspruit, then a safari lodge in the Greater Kruger
- Petit-déjeuner, repas du midi et repas du soir
- Nuit : Greater Kruger
- Environ 1.5 h de route
Matin
An early start: the direct morning flight to Hoedspruit leaves at about 8:30 am on most days, so we leave the hotel at about 6 am with a packed breakfast for the 45-minute drive to Cape Town International Airport. The flight north-east to Hoedspruit's Eastgate Airport takes about two and a half hours and saves the long road day other trips spend reaching Kruger; on a date without it, the fallback is a change in Johannesburg. Your guide handles the check-in and the bags. From the small airport it is a short transfer to our safari lodge in a private reserve of the Greater Kruger, where the fences with the national park are down and animals move freely. We ask for family or interleading rooms, a pool and a lodge that welcomes children 6 and up on drives; we name it when we confirm your dates.
Après-midi
Lunch is at the lodge at about 11:30 (later if we use the Johannesburg fallback), then a briefing for every age: stay seated, speak softly, keep hands inside. At about 4 pm the first drive goes out in open vehicles with a ranger and tracker, with a sundowner stop.
Soir
Dinner is early.
Compris
- Transfer to Cape Town International Airport
- Flight from Cape Town to Hoedspruit (Eastgate), direct on most days, via Johannesburg as the fallback
- Transfer to the lodge
- Afternoon game drive in an open vehicle with a ranger and tracker, with a sundowner
- Reserve conservation levies
Option plus facile : Skip the first drive and settle in by the pool or on the deck.
Temps libre : A rest at the lodge before the afternoon drive
Activité : A 6 am departure from Stellenbosch; children can sleep on the flight. If we use the Johannesburg fallback we reach the lodge later and the first drive may be shorter. Pack warm layers in hand luggage: evening drives turn cold quickly.
Dawn drive and a pool day
A full day in the private reserve
- Petit-déjeuner, repas du midi et repas du soir
- Nuit : Greater Kruger
Safari days follow the animals' clock.
Matin
A knock comes at about 5 am in summer and a little later in winter, with hot chocolate, coffee and rusks before the dawn drive, the best hours for lions, leopards and wild dogs. Rangers in private reserves can leave the track for some sightings, and only a few vehicles may gather at one, so it stays quiet. Families sit together, and the ranger stops for a toilet break and a snack in the bush. Back for a late breakfast at about 9 am. For older guests who meet the lodge's walking age, a guided bush walk with an armed field guide reads tracks, dung and termite mounds; younger children get a shorter activity near the lodge where the lodge offers one. The middle of the day is the pool, a nap, or the waterhole from the deck.
Soir
The afternoon drive runs past sunset; at dusk look for vultures settling into dead trees. Dinner is early.
Compris
- Dawn game drive in an open vehicle with a ranger and tracker
- Guided bush walk with an armed field guide, for guests who meet the lodge's walking age
- Afternoon and evening game drive with a sundowner
- All meals at the lodge
Option plus facile : Sleep in and skip the dawn drive; join the afternoon drive only.
Option plus active : Take the bush walk, and ask the field guide to stretch it where the reserve's rules and the group allow.
Temps libre : Middle of the day free at the pool
Activité : Each drive lasts about three hours with a stop. Minimum ages for drives and walks are set by the lodge and confirmed before you book.
Kruger National Park, back by mid-afternoon
The lodge to Orpen Gate, then toward Satara for lunch and back
- Petit-déjeuner, repas du midi et repas du soir
- Nuit : Greater Kruger
- Environ 2 h de route
Today we go into Kruger National Park itself, proclaimed in 1926 and close to two million hectares.
Matin
After coffee at the lodge we drive about an hour to Orpen Gate, arriving soon after it opens (about 5:30 am in summer and 6 am in winter), and spend the morning on the park's roads in an open safari vehicle with a registered guide, heading east across the plains toward Satara, an area known for lions, elephants, buffalo and herds of zebra and wildebeest.
Après-midi
Breakfast is a picnic at a stop with toilets, and lunch is a sit-down meal at Satara rest camp, with time to stretch, buy postcards and refill water bottles. Park roads are public and vehicles stay on them, so this is a wider, different safari from the reserve.
Soir
We head back after lunch and reach the lodge by about 3 pm, a shorter day than the usual dawn-to-dusk park trip, leaving time for the pool before an early dinner.
Compris
- Kruger National Park safari in an open vehicle with a registered guide, about 5 hours inside the park
- Kruger National Park conservation fee
- Picnic breakfast and sit-down lunch at Satara rest camp
Activités en option
- Late-afternoon drive in the reserve for anyone with energy left
Option plus facile : Stay at the lodge for a slow morning and the pool, and join the afternoon drive in the reserve.
Option plus active : Join the late-afternoon reserve drive after the park day.
Temps libre : From about 3 pm free at the lodge
Activité : About 2 hours of road driving to and from Orpen Gate, the longest leg about an hour, plus about 5 hours of slow game viewing with stops. Bring a hat, sunscreen and a warm layer.
Last day in the bush
The private reserve, with an optional half-day to the Blyde River Canyon
- Petit-déjeuner, repas du midi et repas du soir
- Nuit : Greater Kruger
Our last full day stays close to the lodge.
Matin
The dawn drive is the time to look for anything still missing from the list; children often keep a tally of what the family has seen. Rangers share sightings over the radio, and the guide can ask to focus on leopard, rhino, elephants or birds. Rhino locations are never shared and the lodge asks guests not to geotag photos, because poaching is still a threat; it is a good conversation for the vehicle. After breakfast the middle of the day is free at the pool. For a change of scene, an optional half-day drives about an hour and a quarter to the Blyde River Canyon for the view of the Three Rondavels, back in time for the last drive.
Soir
The late-afternoon drive ends with a sundowner as the light goes, and then a farewell dinner in the boma, the open-air enclosure around a fire, at an early hour.
Compris
- Dawn game drive in an open vehicle with a ranger and tracker
- Afternoon and evening game drive with a sundowner
- Farewell dinner in the boma
- All meals at the lodge
Activités en option
- Half-day to the Blyde River Canyon and the Three Rondavels viewpoint, priced at booking
Option plus facile : Sleep in and skip the dawn drive.
Option plus active : A second bush walk with an armed field guide instead of the dawn drive, for guests who meet the lodge's walking age, where offered.
Temps libre : Middle of the day free at the pool
Fly to Johannesburg
The lodge to Hoedspruit (Eastgate), then fly to Johannesburg O. R. Tambo International Airport
- Petit-déjeuner
- Environ 1 h de route
Matin
A last short drive at first light for those who want it, or a slow breakfast on the deck, then the transfer to Hoedspruit's Eastgate Airport, about 40 minutes. The flight to Johannesburg's O. R. Tambo International Airport (JNB) takes about an hour and a quarter, and your guide flies with you and sees the family to your onward check-in.
Soir
Most long-haul flights from Johannesburg to Europe and North America leave in the evening, which suits the day: book an onward flight leaving after about 6 pm. With a late flight, after about 9 pm, we can add a guided visit to the Apartheid Museum, about 30 km from the airport, which suits older children and adults; it is priced at booking. If you want to stay on in Johannesburg, we can book extra nights and an airport transfer. Children leave with their sightings list, and everyone with a few early mornings to remember.
Compris
- Short dawn drive, if you want it
- Transfer to Hoedspruit (Eastgate)
- Flight from Hoedspruit to Johannesburg (JNB)
Activités en option
- Guided visit to the Apartheid Museum for flights after about 9 pm, priced at booking
Option plus facile : Skip the last dawn drive and take a slow breakfast.
Temps libre : Time at the lodge after breakfast before the airport transfer
Activité : Book an onward flight from Johannesburg leaving after about 6 pm.

Faune et météo : April to May and September to October suit both halves of the trip and include the Easter school break. In the Kruger area the dry winter, about May to September, thins the bush and draws animals to water, with cold dawns and the lowest malaria risk. The rains from about November bring newborn impala and green bush but thicker cover, heat and the highest malaria risk. Cape Town is driest from November to March and wettest from June to August, when pools are too cold for most and the cableway can close for wind on any day.

Questions
Les prix indiqués dans ces réponses s'appliquent à compter du 1er janv. 2027. Offre du Vendredi fou : 15 % de rabais sur le prix en petit groupe pour les demandes reçues au plus tard le 1er déc. 2026. À partir de CAD 6,535 par personne. Du 2 déc. au 31 déc. : à partir de CAD 7,075. À compter du 1er janv. 2027 : à partir de CAD 7,690.
What does the price include?
Nine nights in central hotels and a safari lodge, 9 breakfasts, 8 lunches and 6 dinners, two domestic flights, airport transfers, a private vehicle in the Cape, open safari vehicles with rangers and trackers, your See Sight Tours guide throughout, and every visit in the day plan, including the Table Mountain cableway, the Two Oceans Aquarium, Robben Island, Cape Point, reserve levies and Kruger park fees.
Is this trip suitable for grandparents in their 70s?
Yes, if they can walk an hour or two on flat ground and step up into an open safari vehicle. There are no long hikes: the summit loop is level, Boulders is a boardwalk and Cape Point has a funicular. Drives are seated, and every drive or the park day can be swapped for a rest at the lodge.
Can children go on game drives?
Yes, from age 6 on this trip. Lodges set their own minimum ages, so we only book a lodge that takes children 6 and up on drives, and families sit together in one vehicle where numbers allow. Bush walks usually have a higher minimum age; we confirm the lodge's rules before you book.
Is there malaria in Kruger, and is it safe for children?
The Kruger area is a malaria area, with the lowest risk in the dry winter months. Many families travel with children there, using repellent, long sleeves at dusk and tablets suitable for children. See a travel clinic well before you go. If you want a malaria-free safari, ask us for a private trip instead.
Can our family have rooms together?
We ask every hotel and the lodge for family, interleading or connecting rooms, and we confirm what each one offers before you book. Room types are limited, especially at safari lodges, so families who need rooms together should book early. A pool at each base is part of the brief we give our hotels.
How big is the group?
The small-group trip runs with 7 to 12 guests, children counted, usually two or three families together. On safari we ask the lodge for two open vehicles for our group, so there are no more than 6 guests in each and every seat is an outside seat.
Who leads the trip?
A See Sight Tours guide travels with the group from Cape Town to Johannesburg, including on both flights, and handles check-ins, bags and the day plan. Local experts add what they know best: Robben Island Museum guides, a Stellenbosch guide, and the lodge's rangers and trackers on every drive.
Is there a single supplement for a grandparent travelling alone?
Only if they want a room of their own, from CAD 1,300, shown up front. A grandparent who shares with a grandchild or another family member pays no supplement. Solo travellers join the same group, drives and tables as everyone else.
When is the best time to take three generations to South Africa?
April to May, including the Easter break, and September to October: Cape Town is mostly dry and the Kruger bush is thin, with lower malaria risk. July and August work for safari but are cold and wet in Cape Town. December to March is hot in Kruger, with the highest malaria risk.
How does booking work?
Choose a start date and request to book. We check availability and provide the final quote, itinerary and booking terms before you accept. No payment is taken when you send the request. The small group starts from CAD 7,690 per person sharing, taxes included.
Can we travel privately or on our own dates?
Yes. Besides the small group, the trip comes as a private trip for your family only, on a date you choose, from CAD 13,840 per person. If you would rather travel independently on your own dates, ask us from the dates section and we will quote hotels, a lodge and flights.
What documents do Canadians and children need for South Africa?
Canadian passport holders do not need a visa for a tourist visit of up to 90 days. Every passport needs two blank pages and at least 30 days of validity after you leave. For children, bring a birth certificate and, if a parent is not travelling, a consent letter. We send the current rules with your booking.
