South Africa Tour Package From Mumbai
Table Mountain
Look eastwards from anywhere in the city of Cape Town and you’ll see a giant rock structure that goes up into the sky and above the clouds, flanked by two peaks on either side of it, making for a rather dramatic and spectacular backdrop to the city below. This rock structure is the famous Table Mountain of South Africa and the two peaks that flank it is the Lion’s Head further to its northeast, nearer to the coast, and the Devil’s Peak, which you’ll see if you point your vision towards the southwest from the top of it.
Apartheid Museum
Not quite as adventurous and lighthearted of a visit as most of the other features within South Africa’s borders, the Apartheid Museum is still an important monument that is a scathing indictment of a dark time in South Africa’s history. The Museum functions on the principle of “show, don’t tell” with its rather unconventional presentation. People who decide to enter the Museum are given a ticket which instructs them to either enter via one of two gates, “white” and “non-white”. The ticket given to you does not relate to your actual ethnicity but is simply a sobering example of how segregation works. Each gate leads to a different set of displays as well.
Ideal Duration
You’d have to spend about 15 days with one of our South Africa tour packages from Mumbai to truly get a grasp of everything the country has to offer.
Best Time to Visit
Spring From August to October, South Africa shows off some of its rarer sights. There are certain flowers that are only in bloom during this time and certain other wildlife phenomena that are only possible to observe during this season of spring. This makes it the prime time to go on one of South Africa’s many famous jungle safaris. Temperatures during this time are on the cooler side, averaging to about 13 °C. The climate is also fairly dry at this time of the year.
Summer
The summer temperatures in South Africa do shoot up significantly when compared to the springtime on average, measuring in at around 24?. This season, which lasts from November to January, also brings a rush of tourists to South Africa as a lot of its activities are best experienced in this weather.
Autumn
The autumn season in South Africa runs from February to April. If a good hike is what you’re looking for, travelling around the country at this time of the year is your best bet, as the golden sheen that South Africa’s vegetation gets at this time is a sight to behold. Average temperatures drop slightly from those experienced in the summer, down to 21?.
Winter
Winters in South Africa get fairly cold, with an average reading of the mercury coming up to about 8 °C. It is the driest spell of the year in South Africa, with minimal rainfall. The days often come with bright, sunny and clear skies, with the chill creeping in only during the nighttime. The direction of the tidal winds also makes the winter months of May, June and July the peak season for those looking to surf on South Africa’s waves.
How to Reach
By Air
Most flights from the Chatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport in Mumbai that head towards South Africa land at the O.R. Tambo International Airport in Johannesburg. Flight durations are within the 10 to 15-hour range, requiring at least a single layover, which may come on Mahe Island, Doha, Nairobi, even Dubai, sometimes requiring a transit visa.
By Rail
Taking the train to South Africa from Mumbai is not an option due to the lack of the availability of a train route between the two countries.
By Road
Mumbai and South Africa are almost half a world away, so despite being connected by land, driving there is not really a workable option.

FAQs About South Africa Tour Packages
How big is South Africa?
South Africa takes up a decent chunk of the African continent, measuring in at 1.22 million sq km out of the continent’s total area of 30.37 million sq km., with a population of about 5.67 crores living there.
What foods are among South Africa’s most popular dishes?
Cape Malay curry is a dish that encapsulates South Africa’s storied colonial past. Despite being wholly South African, it does show influences from Malaysian and Indian cuisine, with the use of spices such as saffron and turmeric. Another example of this influence is in the popular street food of Bunny Chow. Essentially South Africa’s Vada Pav, Bunny Chow takes an entire hollowed-out loaf of bread and stuffs it with spicy curry, both vegetarian and non-vegetarian.
Which festivals do the South African people celebrate?
Kaapse Klopse, or the Cape Town Minstrel Carnival, is exactly what it sounds like - a huge parade through the streets of the city. People who are part of the parade dress up in costumes as they dance to traditional music as well as some jazzy tunes. The Knysna Oyster Festival is also an annual event here. It is a celebration of the oyster itself and has over 100 events, including everything from oyster shucking competitions to marathons.
