Situated at the tip of the world’s most epic continent, South Africa calls itself “A World in One Country” for good reason. A combination of urban modernity and untamed wilderness, South Africa is jaw-droppingly diverse at every turn. With legendary game reserves, cosmopolitan cities, gorgeously rugged beaches, and world-class wines, it’s the destination that keeps on giving. And at the southernmost point, the buzz-worthy Cape Town. Some cities boast rich culture and vibrant nightlife, while others breath-taking landscapes — this city’s got it all and more. South Africa is like a book you can’t put down; this Rainbow Nation deserves more vacation days than you think.

Cape, Bush and Vic Falls

The ‘Rainbow Nation’ moniker doesn’t cover the half of it. The astonishing diversity of South Africa is not just seen in its people, but in everything. Landscapes and wildlife collide to offer incredible sights and activities – beachgoers share sand with penguins on the Cape’s beaches, divers encounter whales (and great whites), safari cognoscenti watch iconic species in the bushveld, and hikers eye vultures soaring over the snowy peaks of the Drakensberg. The historical sites, ranging from the Cradle of Humankind to the Apartheid Museum, are no less compelling. And South Africa’s human drama – its pain, its injustice and its hopeful spirit – is palpable. The result is sobering and challenging, fascinating and inspiring; alluring enough to keep most visitors returning time and time again.
