DO THE DOUBLE: CAPE TOWN BY HELICOPTER FLIGHT & WINE TASTING

Whether it’s holiday season or the middle of the year, most roads lead to the Cape, so why not to take to the skies and couple the unique experience with a trip to the Winelands? You can make this idyllic experience a reality with NAC Helicopters. You’ll travel amongst the clouds enjoying marvellous views of Cape Town’s gently rolling hills and scenery before enjoying an afternoon capped with the finest wines from Constantia, Franschoek or Stellenbosch’s wine estates. Wherever you choose to go you can rest assured you’ll discover lush grandiosity in the company of Cape Town’s most revered and celebrated wines.

AQUILA PRIVATE GAME RESERVE

It wouldn’t be Africa and it wouldn’t be Cape Town if there was no wildlife adventure to partake in. There’s no better one than the 12-hour safari-themed shore excursion to Aquila Private Game Reserve. Bird watchers will delight in the vast array of avian animal life on show, consisting of an awe-inspiring 170+ species. Furthermore, the famous “Big Five” can be found roaming across this 24 000 acre sanctuary for wildlife. Sightings of these incredible creatures take place as you travel aboard an open vehicle, to the backdrop of enthusiastic and detailed narration from your designated game ranger. Also, while the main attraction may be the safari, Aquila also offers an infinity pool and premium spa. If you’re looking to experience the wild side of luxury then Aquila Safari promises the lion’s share.

Luxury experiences are much more than the bill attached to them or extravagance; it’s about invaluable experiences and memory making. After all, as Leonhard Ravenhill so succinctly put it, “The opportunity of a lifetime needs to be seized during the lifetime of the opportunity.”

Happy exploring.
