South Africa

If South Africa isn’t on your bucket list, you’re missing out!

An incredible country that’s sure to blow you away, South Africa is right up there for many people… and for good reason!

From the inspiring of Cape Town with its dramatic coastal setting and epic food scene, through to the amazing safari possibilities in Kruger National Park, Addo Elephant Park and Hluhluwe Umfolozi, this country is a feast of diversity.

And that’s not mentioning the mountain hiking you can enjoy in the Drakensberg, the surfing and adrenaline sports you can try, the wine tasting you can savour or the history and culture you can experience – from the Apartheid Museum through to township tours.

Be it beach days, sightseeing days, wildlife days, food experiences, cultural attractions, mountain meanders, epic views, mega road trips or active adventures, South Africa offers it all in abundance.

A great destination for those heading to sub-Saharan Africa for the first time, the fact that English is commonly spoken here, it’s one of the most economically developed in the region and there’s direct flights from across the world, makes South Africa a popular choice.

Allowing at least 2 weeks to explore this country’s beauty really is necessary, but with less time than that, I’d stick to just Cape Town, the Cape Peninsula and the Cape Winelands to get your SA fix… after all, you can always return!

Otherwise, for those with more time first time round, why not grab a car and drive the coast of this sensational country, stopping to take in the Garden Route, the Wild Coast, Durban and even Kruger National Park as you go.

Whether for a long or a short time, South Africa never fails to amaze, so check out these posts to help start planning your adventure there today…
