HAPPY HATHI TIP
Skip the usual Kruger crowds and choose private reserves like Sabi Sabi for intimate safaris — then pair it with South African experiences you won’t find anywhere else: trace human origins at the Cradle of Humankind, drive the breathtaking Panorama Route, sip small-batch vintages in the Cape Winelands, wander vibrant art hubs in the Karoo, or witness the wild spectacle of the Sardine Run.
