Solo-ish South Africa
South Africa doesn’t need an intro, but this 10-day Solo-ish adventure is one you'll want to hear about. We know going on safari solo can be a bit daunting, but with this trip, you’ll be joining a crew of like-minded explorers just as excited to roam as you are. Start in Cape Town, hitting all the must-sees like Table Mountain and Boulders Beach — with a special G surprise, of course. Then, it’s off to the wild East for a few epic days in Kruger National Park, spotting the Big Five and more. Ready to make some wild memories?
