Here are the top 10 reasons to travel to South Africa
Breath-taking Beaches
Long lengths of beautiful soft sand lapped by waves that become warmer and warmer the further north you travel can be found all the way along South Africa’s Garden Route and KwaZulu-Indian Natal’s Ocean coastline.
When visiting South Africa, you can also explore exotic coral reefs and wonderful diving and snorkelling places.
The Big 5
South Africa is one of the few countries on the planet where you can see all five of the Big Five in a single day – perhaps one of the finest reasons to visit South Africa. Because of its great conservation areas and national parks, the country is one of the world’s best Big 5 safari destinations.
Food & Wine
Look no further than South Africa for great cuisine pleasures at exceptional value for money. We highly recommend spending time in the Cape Winelands, South Africa’s undisputed “fine dining capital,” when visiting the country’s Mother City, Cape Town. Visit the magnificent estates, taste award-winning wines in cool basements and on vine-covered patios, and dine in some of the world’s best restaurants.
Activities in Abundance
Hike to the top of Table Mountain; horseback ride in the Drakensberg; watch whales in Hermanus; paraglide over Cape Town’s beaches; go on a walking safari in the Kruger; cycle through the Cape Winelands; explore the forest canopy in the Garden Route; play a round of golf on one of the many world-class courses… When you visit South Africa, you will never be disappointed!
The Weather the stars in Kruger’s Sabi Sands Game Reserve.
South Africa is blessed with a generally temperate climate, meaning sensational summers and mild winters. Enjoying great weather is vital for a memorable vacation and for many travellers (especially from the northern hemisphere), this is one of the top reasons to visit South Africa.
Rich in History
The Constantia Winelands extends back over 300 years, and the San Bushmen can teach you more about their desert lifestyle, which has remained mostly untouched for thousands of years.
Cultural tourists adore the country’s multitude of ideas, customs, and social behaviors, which is why it ranks high on our list of top reasons to visit South Africa.
Value for Money
When visiting South Africa, it’s simple to discover a cozy guesthouse or family-run lodge that provides extra holiday pampering as well as fantastic value for money. Furthermore, eating out in South Africa is reasonably priced, so you can often enjoy a delicious meal and local wine without the bitter aftertaste of an outrageous cost.
Getting Around is Easy
South Africa welcomes a constant flow of international airlines at its international airports. You’ll also find a network of national highways crisscrossing wide sky Karoo vistas, traveling through farmlands, nibbling along beaches, and crossing stunning mountain ranges once you arrive.
One of the biggest reasons to visit South Africa, if you’re an independent traveler, is that it’s one of just two countries in Africa where we recommend a self-drive holiday.
