We love receiving positive reviews from our clients and this one from Heather is no different. It made us smile and reassured us that all the detailed planning we do for you, our dear travellers delivers the very best experience so that you can enjoy your holiday without a care in the world. Just as it should be.

“I am so pleased by the experience that was created for us! It was first class ALL THE WAY. This was one of the easiest trips I've taken because of the work that Leopard did to make it effortless for us! We literally showed up where we were supposed to and then we were treated like royalty every step of the way, from being greeted by name, to scrumptious food, and luxurious accommodations. I would 100% use them again and hope I am privileged enough to take a trip like this again!” - Heather

The moment you step aboard Rovos Rail, you’re enveloped in an atmosphere of old-world sophistication. Gleaming mahogany, soft lighting and the scent of leather and wood whispers of timeless luxury.

As the train glides through Southern Africa’s breathtaking landscapes, the rhythmic clatter of wheels soothes your senses. In the dining car, indulge in a four-course meal paired with South Africa’s finest wines under elegant chandeliers.

The observation car is the perfect retreat, where the open-air balcony lets you feel the wind as you sip afternoon tea. As evening falls, the lounge car becomes a haven for camaraderie, where you can share stories with other guests over cocktails.

A four-night journey from Pretoria to Victoria Falls includes a game drive in Zimbabwe’s Matobo National Park and culminates in the awe-inspiring majesty of Victoria Falls, "The Smoke that Thunders." This journey allows you to experience Africa with unparalleled grace and style.

Cape Town’s and the Garden Route have beaches that draw travellers from across the world. At Camps Bay, white sands stretch against the backdrop of the Twelve Apostles, creating a postcard-perfect setting. It’s the ideal spot to sip cocktails at a beachfront café, watch paragliders drift down Lion’s Head, or dip into the cool Atlantic. Boulders Beach offers something unique: the chance to wade among adorable African penguins, their tuxedo-like plumage contrasting against the soft sand and blue ocean.

Just around the peninsula, Tintswalo Atlantic delivers a view that rivals any beach on Earth. Perched above the rocky shoreline of Hout Bay, this secluded retreat where you can stay, or visit for a five-star dining experience, offers panoramic vistas of the Atlantic Ocean framed by rugged cliffs. It’s a front-row seat to beautiful sunsets that paint the sea with gold and silvery hues.

Traveling along the Garden Route, you’ll find beautiful beaches and tranquil forests. Noetzie boasts golden sands surrounded by castle-like homes set on a lush Knysna hill. Plettenberg Bay offers both secluded coves and long beaches with great surf and perfect for walking on or sunbathing.

We had the privilege of planning a dream African safari for Star Jones and Ricardo Lugo. They chose to stay at the breathtaking Tanda Tula Safari Lodge in the Timbavati Private Nature Reserve. Tanda Tula is renowned for its exceptional service, warm hospitality, and prime location for wildlife viewing. It was the perfect match for Ms. Jones and Mr. Lugo, and they absolutely loved their stay! 🦁

Ms. Jones discovered Leopard through a referral, as most of our clients do, and we were thrilled she chose to book with a small, locally owned business like ours. ✨Holidays booked through local travel companies don’t just create sensational memories - they also have a meaningful impact by directly supporting the communities and conservation efforts in the country you're visiting. 🌍💚

We are so grateful for her trust in us and for being part of her unforgettable African adventure. 🌟

Watching turtle hatchlings emerge from the sand and making their way to the sea is one of the most magical experiences a family can share in iSimangaliso Wetland Park. A UNESCO World Heritage, iSimangaliso is home to an incredible diversity of wildlife, including hippos, leopard and rhinos as well as marine life along its coast.

The park, which protects over 200 kilometres of coastline, is renowned for its turtle nesting beaches, particularly in the summer months when species like the endangered leatherback and loggerhead turtles lay their eggs. The turtles usually lay their eggs around November and December and then the baby turtles hatch in January and February.

Teach your children about conservation, the fragility of marine life, and the importance of protecting incredible ecosystems while connecting with nature on a meaningful level.

DM us or email [email protected] if you’d like to know more about a beach stay in this subtropical national park that lies adjacent to the ocean. Here you can snorkel, dive, take boat trips, swim with turtles or experience the wonder of them hatching.

We love getting positive feedback from our clients on TrustPilot. We have a 4.9 (out of 5 star) rating and continually look at how we can improve so that not a single traveller hesitates to give us 5 stars. Here is one of our recent reviews:

‘Best travel experience, ever! I can't praise Leopard enough for making my groups' holiday in South Africa the most memorable ever. From the time their efficient and patient (some of our flights were very late) shuttle service collected us at various times, we simply flowed from one adventure to the next without a single hiccup. What a pleasure to enjoy each challenge - first a wilderness walking trail with close (20 metres) encounters with huge rhinos, pythons and elephants, then climbing in a remote section of the Drakensberg Mountains into Lesotho before hiking in the wild Cape of Storms and finally up Table Mountain. This all just blew us away! I have never had such a totally seamless travel experience. Well done the Leopard team and especially Diana, who accompanied us trekking up the remote mountain passes!’ Jean, New Zealand

Travelling to Tanzania during the green season provides a more tranquil and intimate safari experience, with fewer visitors. You might find you’re on the only game vehicle watching a lion, leopard, or cheetah on the prowl. You could enjoy a more meaningful interaction with local communities. It’s also the perfect time for photographers to capture moody landscape scenes and dramatic backdrops with the often-present billowing clouds.

We share more benefits of green season travel in our latest newsletter and on our blog. Visit leopard.voyage to discover more, and sign up for our bi-monthly newsletters – so you never miss our best insights for travelling Africa in style.

Daphnée has been exploring Kenya this week, lucky her 🇰🇪

She landed in the capital Nairobi, before heading to Ol Pejeta. This is the only place in the world to see the last two northern white rhino. As they are both female, when they die, this species will be extinct.

Daphnée is now in the beautiful Masai Mara, staying at Encounter Mara. She’s had some incredible wildlife sightings and has shared these photos. More to come in the coming days!

If you’re planning a trip to Kenya in 2025, get in touch, we have the latest info to help make your trip exceptional!

We could easily give you more than 5 reasons to visit the Okavango Delta, but we will start with these... #okavangodelta #Botswana #safari #africanwildlife

I spend the most incredible 4 days hiking in the Drakensberg with my 74 year old mom and her hiking buddies from New Zealand. ⛰️⛰️⛰️ It’s hard to say exactly what it meant to me, it was a lot! The first night we camped at the base of Rockeries Pass, second day we ascended with 1,000m elevation gain and arrived at Mponjwane Cave which was our shelter for the night. The nearest water was about an hour hike away and thankfully the porters collected water for us that day. The third day we descended Mweni Pass (breathtaking) and camped near a river. On the fourth day we hiked back to the mNweni cultural center. It was awe inspiring and challenging in equal measure! Thanks to Michaela from @pathfinders_sa for planning our route, and mountain guides @graeholliday and Khumbulani Ndaba for getting us safely up and down the mountain 🙏⛰️
