DURBAN 4 nights, CAPE TOWN 4 nights, JOBURG 2 nights, Durban 4 nights, DRAKENSBURG 1 night, JOBURG 3 nights.
Three tests in Durban, Pretoria and Johannesburg, and the midweek Lions game in Cape Town. The Inkosi Tour benefits from our superior hotels. It allows the maximum time to see all 3 tests and explore the Cape but then revisits Durban where the weather should be at its most pleasant for this time of year. The Drakensburg Mountains are a spectacular bonus.
