Is Wanderer Africa a DMC or a tour operator?

Both. Wanderer designs and operates tours, safaris and tailor-made journeys for travellers, and provides destination management and ground handling — accommodation, transport, guides, activities and 24/7 support — for travel advisors, tour operators, groups and incentive planners.

A DMC (Destination Management Company) is a local company that designs and runs travel programmes on the ground — accommodation, private transport, guiding, restaurants and 24/7 support — on behalf of travellers and international travel partners.

Which destinations does Wanderer Africa cover?

We operate a deliberately focused portfolio: South Africa in full — Cape Town, the Winelands, the Garden Route, Johannesburg, Durban and KwaZulu-Natal and the greater Kruger — plus Victoria Falls on both the Zimbabwean and Zambian sides. Everything is delivered by our own team on the ground.

Do you work with international travel agents?

Yes. Our dedicated trade desk offers confidential net rates, co-branded proposals and full ground operations for international tour operators, travel agencies and incentive planners.

How quickly do you respond to enquiries?

Detailed tailor-made proposals are returned within 24 working hours of your enquiry.

Cape Winelands

Stellenbosch, Franschhoek and Constantia hold some of the most beautiful wine estates in the world — Cape Dutch manor houses, private cellar tastings and kitchens that would hold their own anywhere.

Explore Cape Winelands

Garden Route

A cinematic coastal corridor from Hermanus to Plettenberg Bay: whale watching, ancient forest, lagoons and quiet beach hotels, driven slowly or flown into at either end.
