The adventure
South Africa doesn’t need an intro, but this 10-day Solo-ish adventure is one you'll want to hear about. We know going on safari solo can be a bit daunting, but with this trip, you’ll be joining a crew of like-minded explorers just as excited to roam as you are. Start in Cape Town, hitting all the must-sees like Table Mountain and Boulders Beach — with a special G surprise, of course. Then, it’s off to the wild East for a few epic days in Kruger National Park, spotting the Big Five and more. Ready to make some wild memories?
Welcome to Cape Town. Enjoy an included arrival transfer to the start hotel and take some time to freshen up and get settled. After an afternoon welcome briefing with your CEO and new Solo-ish travel mates, attend a hands-on, intimate cooking experience with the whole group in the hillside neighbourhood of Bo-Kaap.
Today is all about Cape Town. First the group and CEO will enjoy a cable car ride up to the top of the city’s iconic Table Mountain. Soak in the views that locals and visitors alike rave about, and set your sights on landmarks like Lion’s Head, Signal Hill, Table Bay, and Devil’s Peak. Explore some of the hiking trails at the top before returning to the base via cable car. In the afternoon attend a farm-to-table experience at SEED, a Planeterra Project community garden where you will enjoy a workshop and listen to stories before having a delicious, locally sourced meal.
Get ready for what G does best and enjoy a day of the must-see sites and highlights of Cape Town with a surprise G twist occurring somewhere along the way. Depart for the Cape Peninsula, with a quick stop at St James along the way to see the colourful beach huts and take some photos, then head to Kalk Bay for the charm of this fishing village where mussel shells used to be farmed to make chalk. Boulders Beach is next where you'll hop into a kayak to paddle with the penguins. The remainder of the day is focused on various viewpoints and lookout spots around Cape Town and who knows where you just might end up to cap off G Day.
It’s time for a day that belongs to you! After three immersive days, Cape Town might be feeling familiar and you’re likely ready to take on some exploration by yourself. From museums to hikes, or perhaps a wine tour to the nearby vineyards, there’s no shortage of options. And you can decide to be as alone or social as you choose for the best of both worlds.
You’ll feel simultaneously sad and excited to be leaving Cape Town for the next leg of this Solo-ish adventure. Board a flight to Kruger where the safari portion begins. After arriving at your accommodations in this wild area, you will enjoy a safari drive for a glimpse of the resident animals as the day winds down.
Rise with the bright African savanna sun for an included morning and afternoon safari to get up close and personal with the nature that surrounds you. Gather for a group dinner at camp in the evening.
Travel into the untamed Big 5 Reserve of Kruger National Park to your tented safari camp. Embark on wildlife drives through the park and enjoy time to participate in the various activities near the camp on your own.
Spend a final day in the tented camp area. Participate in morning bush walk and an afternoon safari drive. With your free time, opt to simply relax in your serene surroundings and take time for yourself. Whether that be writing, reading, meditating, or simply listening to the lively sounds of Kruger National Park, the choice belongs to you. In the evening, gather together for a bush dinner in the fresh, open air.
Take advantage of some time this morning to say your good-byes to the beautiful savanna and leave Kruger for Johannesburg. In the evening, gather with your CEO and Solo-ish friends for an optional farewell dinner in Johannesburg.
You arrived a solo traveller and are leaving with many new friends. Say goodbye to your fellow Solo-ish travellers and depart at any time.
