The Elephant Coast

Planning Your Elephant Coast Holiday in South Africa
The Elephant Coast is one of South Africa’s most beautiful and diverse regions, offering a wide variety of destinations to explore — from pristine beaches and lush wetlands to world-class game reserves.
Before we start designing your perfect trip, we’ll help you decide a few key things:
1. Where would you like to go?The Elephant Coast has so much to offer. Would you prefer a beach retreat, a Big Five safari, or a bit of both? We’ll guide you through the best locations based on what you’re looking to experience.
2. Self-drive or guided safari?Are you the adventurous, independent type who enjoys the freedom of a self-drive holiday, or would you prefer the ease and expertise of a guided safari? We offer both options and can advise which will suit your preferences and comfort level best.
3. What style of accommodation suits you?We offer a range of hand-picked lodges and camps tailored to your travel style and budget:
  • Mid-range & semi-luxury stays: These offer excellent comfort and value for money — perfect for travellers who want quality without splashing out unnecessarily.
  • Luxury 4- and 5-star lodges: For something truly special, we work with top-end private reserves and exclusive lodges, where every detail is taken care of. These experiences come at a higher price point, but the service, setting, and style are exceptional.
For South Africa’s national and provincial parks, we typically use the reliable three-star park-run accommodation — a great way to stay inside the reserves and close to nature. However, should you prefer a more luxurious experience, we can also arrange upgraded options nearby or within private concessions.
Tailor Made for You
Whatever your preferences, our team will always aim to deliver the best value for your budget, without compromising on quality. Whether you're after a relaxed getaway or a once-in-a-lifetime luxury safari, we’ll make sure every detail of your trip is designed just for you.
