A country of unfathomably varied landscapes, South Africa is an open-air museum of natural wonders and wildlife. With 11 official languages, it’s also a country of diverse population. World renowned for its safari parks, vineyard-sprinkled mountains and wild coasts, adventure lies in all corners of the continent’s southern tip. Offering first-rate shopping, cuisine and jaw-dropping scenery, characterful Cape Town is a sight to behold. It’s blessed with a flawless location between the Atlantic Ocean and iconic Table Mountain. This region is also a great spot to cross items off your bucket list, with local activities including cage diving with Great White Sharks, and snorkelling with seals. The city is also within easy reach of the Cape Winelands around Stellenbosch, Paarl and Franschhoek. South Africa has seemingly endless options for experiencing its natural beauty and wildlife.The Kruger National Park is one of the world’s most notorious wildlife wonderlands, with a star cast of elephants, rhinos, lions, leopards and many more roaming this 19,485 km² park space. Other scenic points of interest include the Garden Route in the Western Cape Province, the Botanical Paradise Grootbos Nature Reserve and the awe-inspiring plains of the Ukhahlamba Drakensberg Park. On the east coast, Durban is a surfer’s paradise with the best waves found along The Golden Mile. South Africa’s accommodation choices are as diverse as its landscapes, ranging from wine estate country houses to bayside lodges and city-centre hotels.
