Explore South Africa most iconic destinations with bespoke itineraries and five-star service
Expert planning, not sales pressure
With its exceptional wildlife parks, stunning wine regions and ruggedly beautiful coastlines, South Africa is a country that should be high on every traveller’s bucket list. It provides excellent opportunities for spotting the “Big 5” in Kruger National Park and Madikwe Private Game Reserve, as well as scenic drives through the Cape Winelands and along the Garden Route.
On a customised tour of South Africa, you can follow in the footsteps of Mahatma Gandhi and Nelson Mandela in the museums of Johannesburg or explore the colourful neighborhoods and gardens of Cape Town. Off-the-beaten track adventures await in KwaZulu-Natal and the Eastern Cape with their traditional villages, dramatic coastlines and remote reserves.

I would highly recommend Vencha Travel if planning a trip to Africa. They were highly recommended to me by a retired travel agent friend. I just returned from almost a month visit to Rwanda, Tanzania and Kenya. Mohamed and his team incorporated all of the sights I wanted to see into a beautiful itinerary. Our guides were professional, knowledgeable, helpful and friendly. Our accommodations were spectacular. This was the best trip of my life. If you are considering Africa, book your trip with Vencha.
We had an incredible safari experience thanks to this tour company! Our travel agent, Farida, was incredibly accommodating and helped us create a perfect, custom itinerary. The lodges she booked were wonderful, and the flights from Arusha to Seronera were seamless. Our guide, Rodgers, was a true gem. He was not only knowledgeable about all the animals and the best viewing spots, but he was also fantastic with our two young kids (ages 7 and 4). They still talk about him! We also really appreciated that he was respectful of the animals and their space, always following the rules and staying on the designated paths. We can't recommend this company—and Rodgers—enough!
Trip of a lifetime!!! Vencha Travels exceeded our expectations from start to finish. Farida and Mohamed were amazing and were readily available with any questions we had throughout our trip. They even took the time to set up a surprise Birthday celebration and cake for me. All of our accommodations were luxurious and the food was excellent. Rodgers was our Safari guide and driver and he too was amazing! He was very knowledgeable and patient. We saw ALL of the animals including the elusive leopard not once but twice in two different locations in the Serengeti. Zanzibar was the perfect ending to our trip. We relaxed on the beautiful private beach and our villa was pure luxury. Thank you again to Vencha Travel for exceeding our expectations and truly making this a trip of a lifetime!
Firstly Tanzania is beyond gorgeous. The people are so friendly and the nature is breath taking. I highly recommend booking with Vencha travel, they literally took care of everything—all you need to do is show up. Our pick up from the airport and our Safari tour guide were both very friendly and super professional. Farida made our entire itinerary and it was amazing. She's wonderful and super friendly, she also helped us with our visa! Many thanks to the entire company for an amazing, unforgettable experience.
We highly recommend Vencha Travel! Our trip was perfectly organized, from the pick-up at Kilimanjaro airport in Arusha to the transfer to the airport in Zanzibar. Perfectly selected, luxurious lodges, beautifully and stylishly furnished rooms, delicious food, very friendly and helpful staff. Farida took care of every detail, we didn't have to worry about anything! During the safari we had a great guide. Rogers tirelessly tracked wild animals with us and provided us with amazing experiences. We visited Tarangire, Ngorongoro and Serengeti. Each of these Tanzanian national parks delighted us and made us love Africa even more. It is really hard for us to imagine a better organized and more perfect trip. We recommend Vencha Travel with all our hearts!
I just want to share with you how indescribably great the whole holiday—organized by Vencha Tours—has been. It is such a sensational holiday that it is hard to put this into words. Just top! Starting with the preparation, the selection of lodges and hotel, to the day when it finally starts. Big praise to Farida! We have so many beautiful impressions with over 2400 photos. In Tanzania our driver Rodger showed us probably the best side. Here in Zanzibar we are in an endlessly great hotel. Just wow! We are infinitely happy!
Just completed a 7 day trip to Serengeti and Zanzibar with Vencha travel and enjoyed every minute of it!! Farida caught my attention because she was quick to respond and answered all my questions honestly while forming the itinerary, giving accurate advice. Once we got to Africa, the whole trip was seamless. Each and every lodge was beautiful and welcoming and the process was smooth. Food was fantastic everywhere. Nehemiah was our safari guide and I can't say enough good things about him! He would spot animals and birds even while driving, was very knowledgeable on the wildlife, and never rushed us. Farida texted me throughout the trip to make sure everything was going smoothly. 10/10 recommend Vencha travel for your booking!
Our guide Rogers was fabulous. He took us to the Ngorongoro crater, Serengeti etc. Rogers made the whole trip super interesting. He has a real keen eye for finding big game animals as well as birds and identifies them for you. We were thrilled to see cheetahs, lions, hippos, giraffes and much much more! Highly recommend!
