    Sherry

    Asked on September 25th, 2025

    I'll be in Africa in October/November and volunteering at the Ashia Cheetah Center. I'd like to book a 2-day safari. Do you offer pickup in this area or a transfer?

    Tour Details
    Transport
    • Hotspots2cOperatorWritten September 2025

      Pickups are usually done at locations within 10km radius from Cape Town City Centre. We can make arrangements for the guide to pick you up at a meeting point close to Paarl. Exotic Animal World (Previously Butterfly World), R44, Stellenbosch, 7600 would be the closest meeting point that the guide can collect you, but you would have to make your own arrangements to get there. Drop off would depend on your location preferences, and you can discuss with the guide the nearest point for drop-off.
