Beautiful and diverse, South Africa is a fascinating country to visit! It is home to over 40 million people, has a coastline of 2954 kilometre with a moderate climate. Its topography ranges from highveld grasslands to semi-desert to subtropical wetlands, which are home to some of the world’s most diverse animal and plant kingdoms. South Africa is the only country with an entire floral kingdom – the Cape ‘fynbos’ – within its borders.
Abundant wildlife viewing on safari is possible in the many national and private game reserves, with an astonishing scope of outdoor sports and adventure activities. Various types and sizes of accommodation are used: luxury hotels, romantic and tastefully decorated lodges in the private game reserves, East African style tents with en-suite facilities, African thatched bungalows with hot/cold water and en-suite facilities, family cottages and luxury guest lodges in Kruger Park rest camps : from budget to rather luxurious – package rates differ accordingly.
Whether you want the majestic Drakensberg mountains, the rolling oceans or the vibrant African bush as the setting – whether you want ancient chapels, quaint buildings or luxury trains and hotels as venue: South Africa has it all! And the trimmings too, like horse-drawn carriages or long limos.
