From a sightseeing perspective, the scheduling is excellent, as we have been able to plan our tour around the last two tests. On arrival in Durban we transfer to our hotel The Elangeni, right on the Indian Ocean waterfront, then a sightseeing tour of the city before the second Test at Durban. As is our usual standard of hospitality, we will again be treating our clients to corporate facilities.

No tour to Africa could ever be complete, without a visit to the mighty Victoria Falls, and while we have reservations about entering Zimbabwe, there are no such concerns with Zambia, and our stunning accommodation at the Zambezi Sun Hotel, situated within 100 metres of the Falls itself. And no visit to southern Africa would be complete without a couple of days on safari, and we are delighted to be going onto the Chobe game reserve in Botswana, staying at the renowned Mowana Safari Lodge spectacularly situated on the Chobe River.
