The Celebrities were happy enough to scream South Africa Get Me Into There… so why not us?
Well, our friends at Cassidy Travel in Ireland have been thinking about us and, of course, they never stop.
So they’ve hoved in on SA and safaris as somewhere you’d be glad to set up camp.
Now where Gillian McKeith, Shaun Ryder, Carol Vorderman, Janice Dickinson et al have gone they have followed us.
And all the trials and tribulations and tricky treats are as nought compared to our travails in the Eastern Cape.
Safari travails
When we put ourselves in the hands of Alan of Alan Tours out of Gqberha, or Port Elizabeth, as we then knew it.
Into Baviaanskloof Reserve with its monkeys, baboons, antelopes and springboks.
And were diverted though through Alan’s local knowledge we got back at 1am.
But lived by our wits in the South Africa back woods eating South African/Scots biscuits and playing party games.
Cape crusaders
Cassidy’s, of course, have everything covered on their eight-night Cape Town & Safari Package for travel on October 2.
Including flights with Qatar Airways, private transfers and accommodation.
You’ll have five nights B&B in Cape Town at the Pepper Club Luxury Hotel and Spa.
Where you’ll naturally want to check out Table Mountain National Park.
And Robben Island where Nelson Mandela was robbed of 25 years of his life.
Safari so good
And then three nights safari on Aquila Game Reserve in a Premier Lodge Room on a full room basis.
Prices from €2149pp based on two people sharing.
Something to think on when you’re watching Z-list celebs and shouting South Africa Get Me Into There.
