The climate in South Africa is generally hot and dry and there are few better
places to experience Africa's varied indigenous wildlife. This great nation offers an
wide range of opportunities whatever your expectations of a perfect South African
vacation. From the beauty of touring in Cape Town and Garden Route
regions to exploring the Kruger Park wildlife reserve and the magic of
Sun City, a South African package holiday or tailor-made tour offers
tremendous variety and an abundance of top class accommodation

Imagine spending your holiday listening to live jazz in a waterfront
restaurant in Cape Town, sipping soft red wine in a Cape vineyard,
relaxing on a tropical beach, tracking big cats on foot in a game
reserve or whale watching on the spectacular shoreline, all in
one vacation! The nearby Victoria Falls, undoubtedly one of the
natural wonders of the world, is also definitely worth a visit.
Cape Town
Mother city of Africa, and an area that is regarded as one of the
most beautiful regions in the world. During your holiday to Cape
Town, visit the impressive Table Mountain, flanked by the legendary
Devil's Peak and historical Signal Hill, standing proudly above
the city. Beautiful white sandy beaches fringe the tranquil
coastline that frames the Cape Peninsula - an area famed for its unique
floral kingdom
Johannesburg
Taking in some entertaining tourist attractions before heading
off to the game parks of the northeast, or the coastal regions,
can fill your time spent in this city of contrasts. The most
interesting diversion in Johannesburg is undoubtedly a ‘Heritage
Route’ or ‘Shebeen Crawl’ tour of Soweto, but
take care only to venture into the maze of the township with
an organised tour or professional guide.
Durban
Delightful Durban is the largest city of the vast and varied Kwa-Zulu
Natal province of South Africa. A coastal port with a more than
equable sub-tropical climate and wide golden beaches washed by
the warm Indian Ocean, Durban is a holidaymaker's paradise and
gateway to the dozens of seaside resort towns of the coast to
the south and north of the city.
Port Elizabeth
The industrial city of Port Elizabeth is the centre of the Eastern
Cape region of South Africa. Port Elizabeth attracts many tourists
because of its proximity to the attractions of the East Coast.
The city is known as ‘the friendly city’ and Algoa
Bay boasts 25 miles of beautiful sandy beaches lapped by the
warm waters of the Indian Ocean. The attractive beachfront is
the venue for the annual ‘Splash’ festival and world
boardsailing championships, and features a long promenade and
pier full of tourist facilities.
Kruger National Park
Kruger National Park is one of the world's great
wildlife sanctuaries and boasts a selection of luxurious safari
camps in which to stay in amazing comfort. The Park is South
Africa’s oldest, largest and best-known wildlife conservation
area, home to a huge variety of wildlife and most famous for
its ‘Big Five’ viewing opportunities. Holidaymakers
have an excellent chance of seeing lion, elephant, leopard, buffalo
and rhino among the enormous variety of wildlife
Sun City
In the heart of an ancient volcano lies Sun City, a totally unique
resort with an atmosphere that is unlike any other
holiday destination in the world. Entertainment for the whole
family includes Waterworld and Valley of the Waves, and championship
golf courses, horse riding and major sporting
events are destined to keep even the most energetic holidaymaker
occupied.
