Comrades Marathon 2027: Durban, Safari & Cape Town

A 12-night journey built around the 100th Comrades Marathon: four nights in Durban, four nights on safari and four nights in Cape Town.

Durban | 4 nights | June 10–14, 2027

Arrive three days before the race and settle in at The Oyster Box in Umhlanga. The schedule leaves room for registration and race logistics, an easy shakeout, proper rest and a calm race-eve dinner.

  • Thursday, June 10: Arrive in Durban, private transfer and check-in.

  • Friday, June 11: Registration and race logistics, with the rest of the day deliberately light.

  • Saturday, June 12: Rest, prepare race gear and have an early dinner.

  • Sunday, June 13: The 100th Comrades Marathon — Down Run.

Safari | 4 nights | June 14–18, 2027

The morning after the race, fly onward for four restorative nights in the bush. Londolozi is the classic luxury choice; Jabulani pairs safari with a strong conservation story. Four nights provide time to recover without rushing while still allowing a full safari rhythm of morning and afternoon game drives.

Cape Town | 4 nights | June 18–22, 2027

Finish in Cape Town with four flexible nights. Stay at Cape Grace, Ellerman House or The Twelve Apostles. Begin with a spa and recovery day, then add Table Mountain, the Cape Peninsula, the Winelands or simply more time at leisure.

This is a framework, not a fixed package. Flights, room categories, transfers and touring will be tailored to each traveler and to the official 2027 race logistics as they are announced.
