About South Africa
A country of incredible diversity. Lush mountain landscapes, white sandy beaches, epic wildlife and safaris (including the Big Five (leopard, elephant, rhino, lion, and buffalo), gorgeous countryside, and cool cities. South Africa has that something special – one visit is never enough.
South Africa has three capitals, nine different provinces and Cape Town is often called the most beautiful city in the world. A special bonus for those on a budget is the great network of hostels, activities, and even hop-hop-off buses. Some call it “Africa for beginners” and if you are planning your first visit to the African continent, it is definitely a great place to start.
