South Africa October Holidays

If you’re looking for an exciting new country for your children to experience during half-term break, then look no further than our South Africa October Holidays. It’s summertime in the Southern Hemisphere, so you can ditch those chunky autumnal boots in favour of comfy sandals. And comfort really is key, as you might find yourself exploring the heart of the beautiful Eastern Cape Bushlands, wandering through the vast vineyards of the Western Cape or discovering the pristine beaches surrounding the lesser-known Plettenberg Bay. When it comes to family-bonding activities, South Africa is the star of the show. In the beautiful Kwande Private Game Reserve, you can learn to cook a perfect South African braai (BBQ) after enjoying your private safari tour; and in Plettenberg you can take part in everything from canyoning and hiking to kayaking and ziplining.

At this point, hard-working parents might be thinking: what about me? Don’t worry, our South Africa October Holidays are oozing with luxurious activities so that you come away feeling just as indulged as your youngsters. While on safari, you can enjoy a relaxing massage while your little ones take part in some art and crafts activities with a childminder, and in Plettenberg Bay you can kick back in a plush sun lounger while the kiddos build sandcastles. There are also the phenomenal tours through the Western Cape’s prestigious vineyards, where you can learn all about how some of your favourite wines are made with an expert guide, before enjoying an impeccable glass of wine while overlooking the sweeping valleys.
