Begin your trip on a South African safari with four nights at Jamala Madikwe, an exclusive and intimate lodge set in a secluded corner of the malaria-free Madikwe Game Reserve. With a popular water hole in front of the camp, watch as wildlife frequent to your doorstep, providing some of the best game-viewing opportunities from your private verandah.

Relax in your tropical hideaway by retreating to Mauritius after your time on safari
Enjoy evenings at the exclusive floating restaurant and bar over the lagoon

Situated on a quiet corner of the island’s east coast, the region of Belle Mare boasts pristine beaches, tropical gardens and lagoons, making it one of the most sensational parts of the island.

Fly from Johannesburg to Mauritius, where you’ll spend seven nights at Constance Le Prince Maurice, located on an isolated peninsula and encompassed by white sand and a sheltered lagoon. This intimate and peaceful hideaway oozes luxury from the get-go, with bedrooms overlooking the water and a floating bar and restaurant with mountainous views. Windsurf, snorkel and paddleboard along the private beach, or head to the nearby championship golf courses. With island experiences in abundance, we can arrange a scenic helicopter flight for bird’s eye views of coastal scenery, or a catamaran trip to Ile Aux Cerfs. Don’t forget to indulge in a couples frangipani-infused spa treatment.

Cheval Blanc was absolutely amazing. That place is off the charts and the rooms are incredible and the style and design are perfect. As a standard room (considering all the rooms in the resort are the same), they will be the best in the world, that I’m sure! The staff are amazing and accommodating, and I couldn’t fault the food – I could go on and on! Thank you so much for all your work organising, genuinely, the most perfect trip.
