Our 12-day trip was taken in late-May across South Africa with an overnight in Victoria Falls, Zimbabwe. We began our journey in Cape Town where we made our way past colorful beach shacks and penguins to the lighthouse on Cape Point before meandering our way back along the coast to take in the views from atop Table Mountain, Signal Hill, and Lion’s Head. From Cape Town we headed through the Stellenbosch wine region on our way to cage dive with Sharks in Gansbaai and enjoy more beautiful coastline along our return. We then flew up to experience the awe-inspiring Victoria Falls in Zimbabwe for an evening before flying back for close encounters with wildlife in two private safari reserves adjacent to Kruger National Park. We eventually wrapped up our trip in Cape Town with a sobering visit to Robben Island, where Nelson Mandela was imprisoned. This was an unforgettable experience in both city and nature!
