CURRENCY CONVERTER
Hello and welcome to Babuka Africa Tours, the beginning of your African journey.
Whether you are an individual planning a solo adventure, or a small group keen to design your dream safari, I can make it happen for you.
Let me curate the holiday of your imagination and take care of all the details of your well-tuned itinerary. Perhaps this is a guided day trip of wine country or a mix of tourist hotspots, eateries, markets and museums – the imagination is the only limitation.
If your choice is overland adventure with your sights set on a Big5 Safari, I can be your guide through the game reserves of Southern Africa.
I look forward to finding out more about the holiday that you desire and to cultivating a very special travel experience for you. It is about your relaxation and your adventure.
Warm regards – Your Southern African Travel specialist, Ellen Lagus.
Travel News & Specials
Our Tours
For your dream African Journey I have curated tour parcels which navigate the must-sees on any given tour. Please refer to the links and detailed descriptions, and contact me to book your holiday today.
Private Day Tours
I will be your private travel partner for the day and share with you the high points and places of Cape Town. Let me enliven your experience as I impart the history and stories of the Mother City. There’s so much to see – the Cape Floral Kingdom, Table Mountain, Cape Point. There are wine farms, world-class restaurants, beaches and important places of heritage.
Private Multi-Day Tours
Let me take care of your travel experience through your privately managed multi-day package. Here you have the flexibility of integrating leisure moments and niche interests. As your guide, I am on hand to make your holiday comfortable, and share with you the narratives of the Rainbow Nation, the features of the fauna and flora indigenous to the Cape
Self Drive Itineraries
I have designed popular self-drive journeys to maximise your Southern African travel experience. For first-time travellers, I recommend a best-of Cape Town sights combined with the Garden Route, a coastal drive circuit of splendour. It navigates the towns of Mossel Bay, George, Knysna and Plettenberg Bay.
Hiking Trails
Cape Town offers some beautiful hiking trails contouring through the Table Mountain Nature Reserve and around the peninsula. Varying from easy to challenging routes on half-day or full day excursions, visitors can expect to see the Cape’s characteristic fynbos and distinct rock formations from a wide swathe of single track paths.
Private Cycling Tours
Cycle tours are gaining traction with local and international visitors, and the phased-in introduction of bicycle-lanes through parts of the City has made it a safer and more enjoyable way to sightsee. As the terrain for cycling in Cape Town is undulating, with steep gradients in some parts, tours are customised to the fitness and energy levels of cyclists.
My Special Tours
Gourmet Foodie I have created specialty tours for foodies and wine lovers; so if you’re keen on learning about local food and flavours in a gourmet cooking class, there are some specialised South African cuisine experiences for adventurous palettes. Single Solidarity Some travelling singles would prefer to meet likeminded people, who are also holidaying on their own. Rather than be the odd ones out in groups and family tours, my specialty tour for the solo holidaymaker is a must-do!
