Splash Out in South Africa

About the package

Who said it is impossible to combine intensive exploration and comfort? This itinerary is a proof of the exact opposite - we have prepared for you a luxurious individual journey across the Republic of South Africa. In 12 days you will taste all the famous attractions of this vast country including a wild safari and sun-drenched South African wine. However this expedition has another interesting thing - a ride on a luxuriously equipped colonial train with which you will go back in time without. If you still feel that you are missing something in the itinerary write to us and we will tailor the trip to your wishes.

I would like to thank you for arranging our vacation in the UAE. We really liked it there and were very satisfied. We are especially grateful to Palmyra Tour for the perfect services and I need to thank you on behalf of the whole group. At the airport we were surprised by our chauffer who welcomed us with a bouqet of flowers saying they are from you. thank you so much! The hotel had everything one could ask for. We were accommodated in the largest and most luxurious rooms. One was at the 5th floor and the other was on 14th floor. The hotel services were perfect, food delicious and abundant. The beach was amazing and sea without waves which we appreciated. We can definitely recommend the hotel to new customers. Thank you once again and we send you our warm greetings.

Thank you for the unique experiences on our holiday in Morocco. Your approach to our requests was as forthcoming as it could get. I especially value the fact you were able to arrange flight connections exactly according to our time options which is not a standard. If we decide to explore the Orient more we will definitely turn to you. It was pleasure to work with your family company.
