Wildflowers everywhere, nowhere to be but here. 🌼 Somewhere deep in the Cederberg, you'll find places like the family-run Enjo Nature Farm.

A visit here is the perfect excuse to slow down and switch off. Enjoy incredible stargazing and the natural beauty of the Biedouw Valley, including wildflower season from late July to early September, with both cottages and camping options.

📍 Clanwilliam is the nearest town, approximately a 1 hour drive away.

Your last chance to experience a South African winter safari this year... 🦁❄️ Dry bush, crisp mornings and incredible wildlife sightings make June to August one of the most rewarding times to be on game drive, with animals often easier to spot as they gather around water sources. ❄️✨

🎥 This incredible footage from Kwandwe Private Game Reserve shows exactly why winter is such a special time to visit. 🇿🇦🐘

📍Kwandwe Private Game Reserve is a Big Five, malaria-free reserve in South Africa's Eastern Cape, renowned for its conservation-led safaris, luxurious lodges and exceptional wildlife encounters.

South Africa's Garden Route is a road trip you’ll want to do at least once in your life... 🤩🇿🇦 Beaches, forests, wildlife, mountain passes and charming coastal towns. This is one of the world’s most unforgettable journeys.

Its appeal lies in its extraordinary diversity. Ancient forests give way to dramatic coastlines, wildlife-rich reserves sit alongside laid-back seaside towns and every stretch of road reveals a completely different landscape.

📍 Stretching between Mossel Bay and Storms River along South Africa’s southern coastline, the Garden Route is one of the country’s most celebrated road trips.

A week is enough to experience the highlights of the Garden Route. But 10-14 days allows for a more immersive journey, with time to slow down, explore inland detours and include places such as Hermanus, Oudtshoorn or Addo Elephant National Park.

In just 3 months Jo'Burg and Pretoria will look like THIS! 🤩 💜 Spring here is hard to miss when the brief but beautiful jacarandas come into bloom. Around October to November, the city shifts into bright shades of purple as thousands of Jacaranda line streets and form floral canopies above the suburbs.
