Tailor-Made South Africa Cricket Holidays

It’s not every year England head to the Rainbow Nation for a South African Cricket tour, so when they do, it’s huge.

Our cricket tours here immerse you in the action with premium hospitality, the best views at the most picturesque stadiums and expert insight from legends of the game as your tour host.

We are experts in helping you make the most of your experience in South Africa beyond the boundary, too, with personalised once-in-a-lifetime experiences built into your itinerary, tailored to your tastes. From chasing sightings of the Big Five to savouring the fruits of its bottle-green wine valleys, our cricket tours are the most complete way to experience South Africa.

After the success of our Official Ashes tour, I’m thrilled to be hosting ITC guests in South Africa for what promises to be an exceptional journey of Test cricket, fine wine and Cape culture in the Rainbow Nation.

- Mike Gatting, OBE, Former England Captain and Legend

Once-in-a-lifetime experiences on tour

For urbanites and culture-seekers, South Africa’s big cities offer a diverse exploration of the country’s cultural heritage. The ‘Mother City’ of Cape Town is a cosmopolitan destination of gourmet restaurants and trendy bars, backdropped by the imposing Table Mountain.

We can arrange fascinating tours of Robben Island, a guided stroll along the Victoria & Alfred Waterfront. Then, of course, there’s Johannesburg’s upmarket dining, historic architecture and plentiful culture.

We can help you indulge in some real holiday time on the blue flag beaches of Clifton – the city’s answer to Saint Tropez. Here you can relax and unwind on white sandy beaches.

Perhaps unsurprisingly, we always like to include wildlife adventures on our South Africa tours. Travelling even just a little off the beaten track between Tests or ODIs can find you in some of the world’s most spectacular and distinctive National Parks, where you can spot the Big Five – lions, leopards, elephants, rhinos and African buffalo.

Our travel experts have sat in the South African stands on tour many times over the years, so we have insider knowledge of the best seats and first-rate access to the very best properties and safari lodges.

So let us tailor a complete South African adventure for you; no one takes you beyond the boundaries like Inspiring Travel.
