Checked 2026-11 against Wikipedia’s compilation of IATA Timatic entries. Entry rules depend on your passport and where you live, and they change with little notice — confirm with each embassy or your airline before you book. Check another country.

South Africa and Mauritius in 12 days: Cape Town, a safari and an island
Cape Town → the Cape Peninsula → the Winelands → Kruger → Mauritius
Four days in Cape Town and the Winelands, three on safari in the Kruger, then four on a Mauritian beach. Why the malaria question decides which reserve you book, what a lodge rate includes that a hotel rate does not, and the two seasons that do not overlap.
