"I can never get enough of this place..."
We can't even pretend we aren't biased. SA is home and we love it. We love it for its stunning landscape, rich local history and cultures, resilient people and wild inhabitants (of the animal variety).
South Africa offers incredible value as a tourist destination and year-round suitability. The sheer scope of the country means you could be sipping sundowners at a cool roof-top bar in trendy Cape Town, and a day later you're surrounded by nothing but bush and sky, the silence broken by the roar of an apex predator.
Soak up the sun on a bike ride through artsy, urban districts, or wrap-up warmly for sumptuous dinners under eternal starry skies. Pass through townships or humble rural areas where the courageous human spirit has risen above the uncompromising challenges of past and poverty.
It's easy to get around
The comprehensive infrastructure allows for road transfers, self-driving and flying. This means you can experience so much more of the country.
This is road-tripping heaven and a great self-drive destination!
Superb food & wine
Traditional local flavours from our melting pot of cultures, world-class gourmet cuisine and superb home-grown wines.
Human interaction
Warm, welcoming smiles and locals eager to interact provide travellers with an in-depth understanding of the places they visit.
The History
Our fascinating history is revealed in some off-beat ways. We have the old monuments and tourist hotspots, but we also like to mix it up telling stories over Urban or Rock Art, or getting the "real deal" directly from those who lived the experiences.
Our history is a mix of colonial, cultural and political – just to keep things interesting.
Game viewing
We boast a number of the world's top game reserves and extensive tracts of land, home to unique animals, birds, plant and insects. Each protected biosphere may be home to creatures not seen elsewhere, and endangered species unique to the region.
Desert-adapted species inhabit the drier central parts of the country and massive whales, dolphins, seals and penguins wallow just off shore, or sun themselves on sandy-beaches. Plains game dot the grasslands, and larger mammals move between wooded areas and open spaces.
Very child-friendly
There is so much for the little ones to do. Wide-open spaces, enjoyable activities, and a climate conducive to being outdoors ensures great fun and excellent family bonding time.
Perfect for repeat visits
Each time you come to SA, you discover something new and unique which you might not have experienced on your previous visit: new breath-taking landscapes, a completely different game experience and authentic local interaction.
Cosmopolitan cities
We are proud of our hip and happening vibe.
