How we plan a Africa & Mauritius trip
We start with how much moving you want to do. Two bases in nine nights makes a relaxed holiday; four makes a logistics exercise. From there we build the route, name the hotels, and price the whole thing once — flights, rooms, transfers, entries and insurance in a single costing.
Then we take on the parts that go wrong quietly: the visa file and its timing, the bookings that sell out months ahead, the food you will want near your hotel, and a plan B for the days that depend on weather.
Trip facts
Where people go, and why
Kenya or Tanzania
The Mara and the Serengeti, six to eight nights, with the migration timed carefully.
South Africa
Cape Town, the Garden Route and a private game reserve. Ten to twelve nights.
Mauritius or Seychelles
Seven nights of doing nothing, often after a safari.
Egypt
Cairo, the pyramids and a Nile cruise, over eight nights.
When to go
There is rarely one right month. There is a right month for the trip you want.
Safari season
Dry months, thinner bush, and animals gathered at water. The best game viewing.
Green season
Lower rates, newborn animals, and afternoon rain.
Mauritius
Warm and swimmable year round; cyclone risk January to March.
Cape Town
Southern summer, with the wine lands at their best.
