Standing at Cape Point with my parents and my own children in one frame, worth every mile of travel.
Knysna oysters and lagoon views were an unexpected highlight for the whole family.
Knysna's oysters and those lagoon views were a surprise hit even with the kids, and Cape Point gave us the dramatic coastline we'd hoped for. The Soweto tour in Johannesburg tied the whole trip together with real substance.
Walking the suspension bridges at Tsitsikamma with my kids holding my hands tightly is a memory I will keep forever.
Winter month meant cooler days in Johannesburg which was actually pleasant for walking around, though Cape Town had a couple of grey, drizzly afternoons. Tsitsikamma's bridges were the standout for the kids.
One of our internal flights between Cape Town and Johannesburg got delayed by several hours and threw off our first evening plans completely. The penguins at Boulders Beach and Cape Point the next day made up for the rough start.
June offers cooler, drier weather in Johannesburg, excellent for wildlife viewing (though not explicitly a safari trip, wildlife viewing is mentioned in general). Be prepared for potentially wetter conditions in Cape Town and Knysna during this winter month.
