Why visit South Africa

Why visit South Africa? What has South Africa got to offer? South Africa has become known as the Rainbow Nation and has welcomed visitors from all over the world. South Africa is a multi-cultured land with no less than eleven official languages and another eight non-official. Don’t be alarmed – English is spoken just about everywhere, and the numerous languages are just an indication of the versatility of this multi-cultured society.

The geographic and climatic regions of South Africa are almost as varied as its peoples. South Africa is a land of deserts and rain forest, of vast open plains and high mountains, of golden beaches and bushveld. In South Africa you can bask in the sun on the sunshine coast, or bash through the bush seeking out the big five – there’s nothing like an African hunting safari adventure!

South Africa is a land of luxury hotels and game farms, a cultural paradise boasting seven World Heritage Sites. Take an eco tour to one of South Africa’s wetlands and witness exotic birds in the wild. Or take a train journey on one of the world’s last remaining luxury trains, or dive in the Indian Ocean on one of the world’s best-known reefs.
A journey to South Africa will be a journey to remember the rest of your life.

Only in South Africa can you take a tented luxury walking safari or an African hunting safari adventure. Wake to the distant growl of the leopard or the roar of the lion. Witness the trumpeting of the African bull elephant. Or visit one of the few places in the world where you can see the Southern Right Whale or the Humpback Whale in its breeding ground. South Africa makes sense!
