South Africa brings together the best of Africa in one package. With its sophisticated, cosmopolitan cities, world famous vineyards, celebrated cultural diversity, and exceptionally rich history, South Africa provides an African experience that no other country can. Its first-class game viewing and abundant coastline, along with its unique geography cater to an array of travel tastes
.
South Africa is synonymous with safaris and is arguably one of the continent’s best safari destinations. Kruger National Park in the Mpumalanga and Limpopo provinces draws thousands of tourists a year and for good reason. Its iconic bushlands abound with the “Big Five”: lion, leopard, buffalo, elephant, and rhino. Nearby Sabi Sands Game Reserve boasts the highest density of leopards in the world. Blyde Canyon, the third largest canyon in the world has an array of excellent hikes and helicopter adventures. Of course, with this much foot traffic these game reserves and national parks offer a wide array of luxury and family friendly safari camps well-versed in catering to their visitors every need.
But South Africa is more than its safari parks. It’s an adrenaline junkie’s paradise from rock-climbing in the craggy Cederberg, surfing off the Eastern Cape coast, abseiling from Cape Town’s iconic Table Mountain, bungee jumping from a Garden Route bridge, or coming face to sharp-toothed face with Great White sharks in Cape Town’s cage diving. Wine enthusiasts can explore Stellenbosch’s leaf, tree-lined avenues and Cape Dutch and Georgian architecture between tastings of excellent South Africa vintages.
Rich in history, travelers can discover the past and recent events from colonialism to apartheid that have shaped this modern and cosmopolitan nation. Some not to miss trips include visits to the infamous prison on Robben Island off Cape Town or Constitution Hill in Johannesburg which once house Nelson Mandela and Mahatma Gandhi. The Northern Cape town of Kimberly is the center known as the diamond fields where De Beers got its start. Whether visitors are seeking a luxury safari or a tailored self-drive itinerary, South Africa is a destination that promises not to disappoint.
