Malaria-Free Safari

Transmitted through the bite of a female Anopheles mosquito, malaria is the major medical factor to take into consideration when booking a wildlife safari to South Africa, especially during and just after periods of rain. Although malaria can be easily prevented with medication, some travellers prefer to steer clear of malaria-areas, just to be safe. While malaria is present in some popular safari destinations in South Africa, there are enough malaria-free Big 5 areas to keep everyone happy.

Johannesburg

Johannesburg, South Africa’s biggest city and capital of Gauteng province, began as a 19th-century gold-mining settlement. Its sprawling Soweto township was once home to Nelson Mandela and Desmond Tutu. Mandela’s former residence is now the Mandela House museum. Other Soweto museums that recount the struggle to end segregation include the somber Apartheid Museum and Constitution Hill, a former prison complex.

Madikwe

Madikwe Game Reserve is currently the fifth largest game reserve and is also one of the lesser- known parks in South Africa. This makes it a hidden- gem as it is regarded as one of the best conservation areas in Africa and offers the Big 5 in a 750 km2 park. The park is situated in a malaria-free zone.

Cape Winelands

The beautiful Cape Winelands produces some of the world’s top wines. A visit to these wine estates is a culinary delight. Choose to stay in Stellenbosch or Franschhoek, allowing you to explore and discover the must-see sights.

Hermanus

Hermanus is a seaside town southeast of Cape Town, in South Africa’s Western Cape Province. It's known as a whale-watching destination. Beaches include Voëlklip Beach and the broad Grotto Beach, overlooking Walker Bay. The Old Harbour Museum is a site encompassing the old harbor, a fishermen’s village and the Whale House Museum. The latter has informative displays and a suspended skeleton of a whale.

Cape Town

Cape Town is the quintessential melting pot – it is a city alive with creativity, colour, sounds and tastes. While walking through the city’s streets and meeting its people, you will fall in love with its natural beauty, creative freedom and incredible spirit. Cape Town’s most distinctive feature is its stunning setting – it lies on a dramatic coastline of pristine white beaches and icy waters, overlooked by the iconic flat-topped Table Mountain.
