Art In Voyage takes you Beyond Travel on this Culinary Journey of South Africa. Did you know that the country boasts one of the best cuisines and wines in the world? On this culinary journey, both our Executive Chef Kevin Fonzo and our Wine Expert, Katie Barratt (Wine Fairy) take you on a true feast of the senses. In Cape Town, we have designed a balanced program of culture, history, and culinary delights. The melting pot of cultures in Cape Town has culminated into a flavorful and diverse food scene, for your pleasure.
In the Cape Winelands, you will discover a wine industry to be reckoned with. South African has some of the oldest estates in the world, many starting productions as far back as 1659.
The epic conclusion of your journey takes place in the Kruger National Park where you will embark on an authentic African safari experience. There, the wildlife roams freely over land covering the same surface area as Belgium.
From waddling penguins to stalking lions, and coastlines to bushveld, revel in the unique contrasts that South Africa boasts. A mere one-hour drive takes you from the vibrant city center of Cape Town to the lush, mountainous Cape Winelands region. Experience the oldest wine industry outside of Europe, and fusion cuisine all in one country. Join us in discovering the diversity of landscapes, people, cuisine, and culture within South Africa.
Picture a craggy mountain range peppered with green, that drops into the cool Atlantic ocean. Envisage pristine white sand beaches, lapped by the Atlantic, and adorned with giant granite boulders. Visualize forests dappled with burbling streams, and lofty trees. Your Art In Voyage hosts share with you their hidden-gem discoveries around Cape Town as well as the more known of must-sees such as colorful Bo Kaap and the majestic Table Mountain.
Roaming in one area, you will spot an incredible variety of wildlife. Embark on thrilling game drives through the Kruger National Park tracking down The Big Five (lion, leopard, rhinoceros, elephant, and Cape buffalo), hippo, giraffe, and zebra, just to name a few. Nestled in the bushveld, your luxurious private tented camp awaits you with a welcoming ambiance.
There are more than 150 cellars in Stellenbosch and Franschhoek, both part of the Cape Winelands region (45 minutes away from Cape Town). Franschhoek, meaning โFrench Cornerโ, will impress you with not only superb wines, but also some of the finest art galleries in South Africa, gracious Cape Dutch estates, and exquisite cuisine.
Enjoy two game drives today in the highly acclaimed Kruger National Park, South Africaโs largest wildlife sanctuary, and one of the world's largest and most impressive game reserves. Our private guide will lead us deep into the African bushveld for intimate wildlife encounters. Optional activities including, walking safaris and massages will be on offer.
Today, our guide will take us on two final game drives to end off the African safari part of this journey. We celebrate our final evening in the Kruger National Park with an authentic "farewell to the bush" dinner...beneath the stars, surrounded by the very wildlife guests have been chasing for the past few days.
This afternoon, you are transferred to the local airport where you will catch a flight to your internal gateway. Why not extend to the majestic Victoria Falls bordering Zambia and Zimbabwe? Or how about a different kind of safari, in Botswana's Okavango Delta? Let our journey curators design the perfect extension for you.
After being transported to our beautiful property by our private driver, unpack and relax. From our villa, views of Table Mountain, Lions Head, and the pristine beaches of Camps Bay will have you falling for Cape Town before you know it. Late afternoon, we will walk a short distance to the famous V&A Waterfront to visit the African Modern Art museum and experience an African sunset from the rooftop of the iconic Silo Hotel. A 4-course tasting dinner, with wine pairings in a private and eclectic Silo Hotel dining room, will end the evening.
After a slow start of the morning and a lovely traditional breakfast, we head to Woodstock and the Old Biscuit Mill Market where you are introduced to an incredible array of food and artisanal specialties. After tasting local gin, we make our way to the famous Table Mountain where we board the famous cable car. Upon reaching the top, expect to be mesmerized by the awe-inspiring views of the city and the Cape Peninsula. Meanwhile, Chef Fonzo has been hard at work preparing a mouth-watering dinner infused with local flavors.
This morning, we enjoy a private tour of Bo Kaap, the ancient Muslim slave district of Cape town, world-renowned for its colorful homes. After listening to a local talk about their history, we continue to the spice market and end this journey through time at the home of a local. Here, we are introduced to the Cape Malay cuisine with a fun and engaging cooking class. This afternoon is at leisure and our two hosts will make sure to provide exclusive insights to make it an exceptional day. Tonight, join Mikael and your hosts at his favorite local eateries on Kloof Street.
A visit to Cape Town would not be complete without a day traveling around the Peninsula for some of the most breathtaking coastal scenery in the world. Our journey starts with a stop at the Cape of Good Hope, said to the most southern point in Africa. We then continue to the Penguin colony, where we have the opportunity to walk amongst them. We end the day in the eclectic town of Kalk Bay before heading back to our villa where Chef Fonzo is preparing yet another incredible dining experience. Guests are invited to join, with a glass of bubbly, and participate in the making of dinner. In the meantime, the Wine Fairy prepares a selection of lovely wines to be enjoyed during dinner.
This morning, we must bid farewell to Cape Town. A mere one-hour scenic drive takes us to our next destination, the Winelands of the Western Cape. On the way, we stop at a local wine estate where we have lunch before visiting our next winery for the day, which is home to some of the world's best brandy production. Our long yet exciting day ends at our villa in Franschhoek, a quaint and historic town surrounded by centuries-old vineyards and Cape Dutch architecture. Dinner will be served at the villa - our home for three nights, where Chef Fonzo takes over the kitchen.
Today, we embark on a full day of discovering the Cape Winelands. The Wine Fairy will select up to three wineries based on our guests' preferences and we will explore their history in-depth, the estates, and of course, some incredible wine tastings in stunning settings. For lunch, a beautiful picnic spread will be set out amongst the vineyards for your enjoyment. Throughout the day, we will also introduce you to some of the local gardens that flourish around wineries, and Chef Fonzo picks interesting fresh produces which will be used for tonight's dinner at the villa.
After a morning at leisure and lunch in Franschhoek, we take a drive through the stunningly picturesque Hemel en Aarde (meaning Heaven and Earth in Afrikaans) Valley to reach the coastal town of Hermanus. Here, the Wine Fairy introduces us to wineries that produce elegant, cool-climate wines made from Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. On the way, we stop to look for whales that settle in the area for the season to give birth. Tonight, dinner is served at one of our favorite local eateries in Hermanus.
This morning, you bid farewell to your hosts and the Western Cape province. Your journey to the Kruger National Park now begins. After a short connecting flight to Kruger, our local team and friendly hosts greet and whisk you away to your luxury tented lodge for the next three nights. Your first game drive starts on arrival, followed by sundowners and a 3-course safari-inspired dinner.

For Katie Barratt (a.k.a The Wine Fairy), one of Art In Voyageโs two permanent wine educators and experts, wine is so much more than what is in the bottle. It is the stories beyond the glass, the people, the vineyards, the secrets of the cellar. It is the culture, the history, and the joy that wine brings. It is the emotion, the beauty, and the magnificent scenery. Wine is a magical experience. Well, it can be, if you let it.
Katie is passionate about demystifying the mysteries of wine and sharing joy, knowledge, and laughter with anyone whoโs willing to join her. Katie has dedicated her life to learning about wine. Through her studies and 27 years of experience in hospitality, food and wine, she delivers to her guests a wealth of knowledge, enhancing their experience and understanding of everything food and wine.

Frenchman Mikael Audebert, has been in the business of making dreams come true for hundreds of travelers since 2000. Born with the โitchโ to travel and owner of vast experience in the travel industry, he has extensively explored the four corners of the earth and continues to do so several times a year, as leader of many of our curated journeys.
Mikael moved to the U.S in 1992 to pursue a career in tourism. From the very beginning, he saw the end of the traditional travel agency coming and quickly developed a customized approach to more individually-tailored, travel planning and travel management for his clients. As a result, Mikael and Art In Voyage have received impressive recognition for professional excellence, including being named to the Orlando Business Journalโs โ40 under 40โ, Watermark Media's โMost Remarkable Person of the Yearโ for 2013, the Orlando Business Journal's 2012 list of โBusinessmen to Watchโ and has received numerous awards for his charity work in the Orlando., Florida marketplace.
And, when we say that we donโt send you anywhere that we havenโt been, we arenโt kidding! Mikael is so committed to vetting guestsโ interests before booking them, he even personally checked out the paragliding launch pad at Six Senses' Zighy Bay in Oman. The view is one of peace, quiet and absolute beauty and the thrill is running toward the cliff for a 10-minute flight. Itโs now his favorite spot, too!
When Mikael is not traveling the World, or creating new journeys, he flies his plane over the Western Cape.
There is no describing the beauty of South Africa without including the kindness of its people, the extraordinary culinary experiences, the exceptional wine and the 150+ National Parks, each offering a little bit for everyone.
How can one not be proud of one's home region. Provence continues to win my heart at each visit, and I proudly showcase it to guests who, without any surprises, get to fall in love with its people, its food, its wine and most importantly, its endless and diverse exceptional scenery.
While my best moment in Sri Lanka was riding the train, in 3rd class please, through the jungle and tea plantations (with live music on board from joyful locals), I fell in love with its people first and foremost. A patchwork of cultures and religions that seem to co-exist in peace with great pride.
Everything was 5 starsโฆ accommodations, food, excursions & the hosting people throughout our entire travels. This was a journey of a lifetime in the most comfortable, fun, educational & a-a-amazing fashion. This was our first journey with Art In Voyage and will not be our last. We plan on filling up some travels with more family & friends. I never thought I would enjoy a โgroupโ travel, but being small & intimate was absolutely perfect, meeting some new forever friends. Thank you, thank you, Mikael!! XOXO
