This vast country is undoubtedly one of the most culturally and geographically diverse places on earth. Fondly known
by locals as the ‘Rainbow Nation’, South Africa has 11 official languages and its multicultural inhabitants are
influenced by a fascinating mix of African, Asian and European cultures. Spend your days: discovering the gourmet
restaurants, impressive art and nightlife scenes and fine beaches of Cape Town; enjoying a typical local braai
(barbecue) in the Soweto township; browsing the bustling Indian markets in Durban; or sampling some of the
world’s finest wines at the myriad wine estates dotted around the picturesque Cape Winelands. Due to its rich and
turbulent history there are plenty of historical attractions to explore including the Zululand battlefields of KwaZuluNatal,
the Apartheid Museum in Johannesburg and Robben Island, just off the coast of Cape Town. Above all else,
South Africa’s attraction lies in its remarkably untamed wilderness with its astonishing range of wildlife roaming
freely across massive unfenced game reserves such as the world famous Kruger National Park. With all of this variety
on offer, it is little wonder that South Africa has fast become Africa’s most popular tourist destination.
Johannesburg is one of Africa’s biggest and most vibrant cities. It is the economic capital of Africa and the gateway to
Southern Africa. Although not as famous as other South African destinations, there is plenty to do in Johannesburg
and nearby Pretoria. The old city is a multi-cultural mixture of traditional medicine shops, Chinese restaurants, taxi
ranks and ultra modern skyscrapers. There are excellent museums, art galleries and organised tours of historical and
political interest. The shopping is Southern Africa’s best and the many restaurants cater for all tastes. The nearby
township of Soweto is Johannesburg’s most popular tourist attraction.
