Take holidays to South Africa for safaris in the Kruger National Park, wine routes in the Cape Province and all-round natural beauty and holiday sunshine. As you explore South Africa's regions, you'll come across a diverse range of holiday experiences, all exuding a laid-back South African vibe.
On your South African holiday, visit the northern Limpopo region for game expeditions and the Western Cape to sample South Africa's premium wines. Follow the coast from George to Port Elizabeth for the scenic Garden Route. See Zulu rituals in KwaZulu-Natal to the east and the Cradle of Humankind in Gauteng. The deserted Wild Coast and family-friendly Holiday Coast to South Africa's east are excellent for beach holidays.
Step back in history on your holiday to South Africa with tours of Johannesburg's Gold Reef City and Soweto. In Durban you'll find South Africa's most creative crafts and its famous Holiday Coast. Spot colonial influences in Port Elizabeth's architecture, and traces of South Africa's ‘long walk to freedom' at Cape Town's South African National Gallery.
Surf the Indian Ocean on South African holidays in Jeffrey's Bay in the Eastern Cape, or climb the mountainous Rocklands north of Cape Town. For gentler activities on your holiday in South Africa, walk through the West Coast's spring flowers or track game on elephant rides in Mpumalanga.
Sample the delicate snoek fish and crayfish on the West Coast or try intense Babotie mince stew on holiday in South Africa. Pap en sous maize porridge and sauce is a staple in Gauteng, while Durban serves authentic Indian curries. Bring back vacuum-packed biltong dried meat and wine for a long-lasting taste of your South African holiday.
