This action packed trip gives you the best that South Africa has to offer, all tied up neatly into just 2 weeks! Your first week will be spent volunteering on a private Big 5 Game Reserve, where you may have opportunity to interact with some of the resident Elephants and Lions at the sanctuary on the reserve and be involved in some of the many conservation initiatives that are taking place, including bush clearing and fence building etc. After all of that hard work you will travel along the stunning Garden Route, visiting some of the highlights along the way and finishing off in one of the great cities in the world, Cape Town!
