      The Southern Africa Family Journey: In Search of the Big Five tour is not operated by us, so unfortunately, I'm unable to confirm availability for that specific trip. However, I've checked our available tours, and I'd love to recommend the Kruger & Cape Town Short Break by Plane, which includes some of your must-see destinations.
