Southern Africa brochure 2011







Somak Holidays release all-new Southern Africa brochure

Africa-specialist Somak Holidays announce the launch of a brand new Southern Africa programme.

Expansion

The 2011 brochure has 16 new pages and has been totally redesigned. The new design makes it much easier to find the right itinerary, with clearer maps and more destination information. Two new features are, 'In and Around' and 'Where Next?' on intro pages, giving all the information needed to select a particular area of the Southern Africa region.

South Africa is the key destination featured with carefully selected escorted coach tours for both first-timers and the repeat visitor; self-drive tours and tailor-made sections which can be used to piece together an individual itinerary, be it a coach tour, a self-drive holiday or a safari in South Africa. Be sure not to miss as many game drives as possible.

Other destinations featured include Zambia, Botswana, Namibia and Mozambique. Most accommodation is priced per person, per night so tailor-made itineraries can be constructed.Choose an escorted coach tour, a safari or an adventure holiday.

What's New?

New for 2011 includes the new, ultra-chic 'Protea Hotel Fire & Ice!' in Cape Town, South Africa, Southern Africa. Here a retro suspended pod chair welcomes travel weary guests in South Africa at reception. The hotel in Cape Town has an extraordinary pool deck with an inviting lap pool, a relaxation area, and a gym. The town of Hazyview, near Kruger, South Africa, has been included for the first time ideal for game drives and safari lovers. Just outside the Kruger National Park in South Africa, Hazyview is perfect for self-drive guests who are looking for great value for money and exciting game drives on safari. A choice of properties is included and short trips to explore the region are arranged from here. Trips include escorted safaris in the Kruger for game drives. Guests can choose a walking safari, a night safari or an open vehicle safari. All game drives in the Kruger are escorted by experienced rangers. It is easy to start these from Hazyview.

Garonga Safari Camp, South Africa, is included for the first time. It is situated in the Greater Makalali Game Reserve, just west of the Kruger National Park perfect for game drives and safaris. Guests can indulge in the many activities including game drives on safari, wilderness walks, sleep outs and outdoor bush baths and massage sessions. The sleep out experience takes place on a deck in a tree in the bush which is equipped with a picnic hamper and everything required for a truly magical experience on safari in South Africa.

There are also a number of free night offers under Somak's 'So Much More' banner. These include the Mantis Madness offer, which give guests three free nights in Cape Town, when you book two nights on safari at selected Mantis properties.

Agency Sales Manager Sarah Whibley says, "This brochure is laid out clearly and is full of useful information. The new area introductions are helpful. One great page describes a typical day on safari which will appeal to those who have not been lucky enough to try this sort of holiday. As a previous travel agent I know that this is going to be a really useful selling tool for this incredible region."

Prices start at £1,499 per person including return scheduled flights, car hire and 6 nights' bed and breakfast on an escorted tour in South Africa. For copies of the brochure or a free poster, call 020 8869 4640 or email marketing@somak.co.uk
