Are meals included in the tour? What is really included and on which days? Is breakfast early in the morning before excursions?

Will we be dropped off at locations during the day-by-day visits, or will a guide accompany us throughout these visits?

Are the domestic flights included from Cape Town to Johannesburg, and from Johannesburg to Victoria Falls?

What is the price for adding a post-accommodation night?

Have any tours with safaris and Victoria falls leaving March 21,22,23 or 24, 2026.

Tour for South Africa in March is sold out. If you would like we look at a sit in coach tour with a similar itinerary if interested....

When the tour is over what city does one fly out of? Meaning do the internal flights include getting the travelers back to a major airport?

Yes, your outbound journey would be from Johannesburg.

Can you please confirm the flights from Sydney to South Africa the cost? Expenses are on top of your package deal please.

I have partnered with the local operator, Sky Vacations, to receive a Tour quote. Once I receive the quote, I will get right back to you!

If you would, please provide your preferred dates and we will be happy to provide a program price based on a private tour for 2 travelers.

What luggage restrictions are there? Size required in transport on land and kg limit on internal flight? How many people are booked on the tour? What are the chances of seeing the big 5 on the game drives?

Is it also possible to extend the stay in Victoria falls another 1-2 nights at the same hotel or do we need to organise our own accommodation. Do you arrange internal flights back to Johannesburg? Is the return flight to Johannesburg included in the price?

does beginning of March will be a good time to visit > is it rainy season ? can we see Big 5 at that time and how's the Victoria Fall can see if it clear > how's the weather any mosquito

1. March is a great time to visit. It's the end of the rainy season in the north and not an issue in Cape Town. 2. We can never guarantee seeing the Big 5, but in March as the wet season ends, wildlife tends to be on the move, so your chances are good! 3. February to May is the best time to see the falls, so March is perfect. 4. While we can't promise you won't encounter a mosquito or insect, we have never had a provlem or complaint. In March South Africa had lovely weather up to 80 during the day and into the 60s in the evenings.

Choosing Sky Vacations for our South Africa and Victoria Falls journey was the best decision. From Johannesburg to Cape Town, every element of the itinerary blended culture, history, and wildlife. The safari guides were outstanding, sharing knowledge that made each game drive unforgettable. Ending the trip at Victoria Falls was perfect, staying just steps from one of the world’s greatest natural wonders. What stood out most was Sky Vacations’ professionalism and care. For travelers searching for a luxury South Africa safari package with the added thrill of Victoria Falls, this is the ideal choice.Show more

Honestly, our South Africa trip with Sky Vacations blew us away. We’ve done group tours before, but this felt completely personal. The safari was unforgettable, lions, rhinos, giraffes, you name it, we saw it! Then to wrap up with Victoria Falls… wow. Pictures don’t do it justice. Sky Vacations handled all the details so we could just enjoy ourselves. If you’re planning a South Africa holiday or want to add Victoria Falls to your bucket list, this is the way to do it.Show more

Our South Africa and Victoria Falls adventure with Sky Vacations felt like something out of a dream. One day we were sipping wine in the Cape Winelands, the next we were on safari watching elephants cross the plains at sunset. The grand finale was standing in awe at Victoria Falls — the sheer power and beauty left us speechless. Everything was thoughtfully arranged, from transfers to hotels, making the trip stress-free. For anyone looking to combine a South Africa safari with the magic of Victoria Falls, I can’t recommend Sky Vacations enough.Show more

My husband and I just got back from the Ultimate South Africa & Victoria Falls trip with Sky Vacations, and I’m still processing how incredible it was. From the moment I landed in Cape Town, everything was handled with such care and attention to detail—it honestly felt effortless. We saw the best of South Africa: riding up Table Mountain, exploring the Cape Peninsula, diving into the country’s rich and emotional history in Johannesburg, and going on unforgettable game drives where we spotted all of the Big Five. The safari at Mongena was a true highlight—the guides were amazing, the lodge was beautiful, and the wildlife was next level. And just when I thought it couldn’t get better, we ended in Zimbabwe at Victoria Falls, which is absolutely breathtaking. Sky Vacations didn’t just put together an itinerary—they created an experience that was immersive, meaningful, and so well-paced. I never once had to think about logistics; I just got to be present and soak in every moment. If you’re considering a trip to Africa, I can’t recommend them enough.Show more

- Sky VacationsOperator•Written September 2025
  Seeing all the "Big 5" animals (lion, leopard, elephant, rhino, and buffalo) on a safari is unlikely on a single day, but highly probable over a multi-day trip. The more days you are out on safari, the more likely it is!

  1. March is a great time to visit. It's the end of the rainy season in the north and not an issue in Cape Town. 2. We can never guarantee seeing the Big 5, but in March as the wet season ends, wildlife tends to be on the move, so your chances are good! 3. February to May is the best time to see the falls, so March is perfect. 4. While we can't promise you won't encounter a mosquito or insect, we have never had a provlem or complaint. In March South Africa had lovely weather up to 80 during the day and into the 60s in the evenings.
