This 12-night Azamara cruise to South Africa has it all: vibrant ports, exotic safaris, golden beaches, and UNESCO World Heritage Sites. Departing from Cape Town, we begin with a day at sea before arriving in Port Elizabeth to discover its storied history along the Donkin Heritage Trail. After another luxurious day at sea, where you can unwind in the spa and take in a show.

With a late-night stay in Durban, go on a once-in-a-lifetime tour of traditional Zulu homesteads. Enjoy a second late-night stay in Richards Bay with an authentic safari adventure at Hluhluwe-iMfolozi Park, home to Africa’s "big five". Then, it’s off to Maputo, Mozambique, where colonial architecture and bustling markets await. Following a day at sea, arrive in the town of East London, and wander the white-sand beaches of the Sunshine and Wild Coasts.

It’s one final day at sea, then we arrive back in Cape Town. With two overnight stays here, you’ll have plenty of time to explore this capital set on two oceans. Learn more about the city’s Apartheid history, set your sights for Table Mountain National Park, and say cheers in the world-renowned Cape Winelands.
