South Africa Vacation - Timbavati Game Reserve, Cape Town, and Grootbos Nature Reserve (May 2022)

Christine and I took THE trip of a lifetime to South Africa. It has always been at the top on our bucket list and we are so grateful that we finally had the money/time/opportunity to go! We booked with a company called EJ Africa and highly recommend them. They personalized our trip and made everything stress free! We flew into Johannesburg, then flew to the Timbavati Game Reserve, then flew to Cape Town, and spent our last days at Grootbos Nature Reserve. Below is our itinerary of every activity we did with the rankings (10 being the best). I also included the link to the Top 10 Tips for Visiting South Africa. Feel free to comment with any questions. Thanks for watching and hope you enjoy!
