Welcome to Johannesburg! Upon arrival, you'll be transported from the airport to our accommodations. Since most flights arrive in the evening (at 7 pm or later), the first night is simply for you to rest and align your sleep schedule with the local timezone. We'll have dinner on-site and enjoy a restful evening. 

The first full day in Johannesburg is grounded in peace and purpose. We'll enjoy a beautiful breakfast on our expansive property after you've enjoyed the morning to yourself with options of a morning hike, yoga, sauna, massage, swim or just a peaceful private morning. We'll then enjoy a special lunch and finally our UNESCO World Heritage Site for a tour through caves where some of the first humans were discovered. 

Today, we'll continue to get our geographical bearings and deepen our cultural understanding. We'll embark on a city tour throug Johannesburg, explore Soweto, the birth place of music genre Amapiano, Nelson Mandela and catalyst for change during anti-apartheid movements. For dinner, we'll enjoy a special Pan-African food and storytelling experience from a renowned storyteller who once shared his kitchen with Anthony Bourdain. 

The first half of today we have three options. You can feel free to rest, shop or imagine life in johannesburg through some of its real estate viewings.

In the late afternoon, we'll catch our flight to Durban and settle in that evening on the Indian Ocean side of South Africa.   

Today, we'll explore one of the most beautiful landscapes in South Africa and learn more about the diversity in Capetown. Durban is not only the home of Zulu tribes but also the largest population of Indian's outside of India.

We'll explore the contribution of these cultures through local experiences then rest as we prepare to bring in the New Year that evening. 

What better way to start the New Year than to sounds of the warm ocean water of the Indian Ocean? We'll have a slow morning followed by a special intention setting experience as we prepare for 2025. 

We'll catch a late morning flight to Capetown. After we settle in,  we'll have free time to enjoy the beach or a walk on the promenade before sunset on top of Table Mountain and our evening events.  

Just like in the previous cities we'll start the day getting a feel for landscape with a city tour, tour of Robbin Island where Nelson Mandela was held and have some surprise afternoon and evening programming. 

We'll start by exploring Boulder Beach and visiting the Penguins. And then we'll prepare for the culminating event of the experience, where we spend the afternoon in evening in the wine lands with only the second Black-Owned wine label in Franschhoek, Velisa Wine. Also woman-owned, Velisa Wine collaborates with us to host our intimate evening with professionals from South African community with wine and music.

Sadly, this great thing must come to an end but the great thing is you can hang out on the island for another half the day if you wish! Most likely, your international flight won't leave until a little later so you'll enjoy breakfast and a slow morning as you prepare for a smooth departure.
