Kruger National Park
South Africa
At 5am the camp gates open and everyone drives in silence, windows down, scanning the grey-pink light for shapes in the thornveld. Kruger is the size of Wales and holds more large mammal species than almost anywhere else on Earth. A leopard sleeping in a marula tree is not unusual. Neither is a traffic jam of hire cars parked around a lion pride doing nothing but breathing.
Cape Town
South Africa
Nestled between the iconic Table Mountain and the Atlantic Ocean, Cape Town is one of the world's most spectacularly situated cities. It blends stunning natural scenery with a vibrant cultural scene, world-class cuisine, and a complex, fascinating history.
