Kruger National Park
South Africa boasts such diversity in its wildlife that it makes an ideal spot for a fantastic African safari, where you’ll get the chance to spot elephant, leopard, cheetah and giraffe. In Kruger National Park, the volume of animals is unparalleled in the rest of Africa. Here you’ll find wild animals on a grand scale. Unlike other parts of Africa, Kruger National Park offers a wealth of easy guided tours and plenty of accommodation options, even for the budget conscious traveller.
The Garden Route
South Africa’s Garden Route boasts some of the best beaches in the country, and a coastline backed by ancient forests, a combination that makes the region one of Africa’s most beautiful. All across the Garden Route you will discover a variety of ecosystems, that could have you swimming amongst pristine coral reefs, spotting rare birds in magical forests and watching endangered whales in its oceans. Head to Tsitsikamma National Park, a protected area in the Garden Route, and discover indigenous forests and rocky coastlines.
Sunshine Route & Wild Coast
South Africa’s ‘Sunshine Coast’ stretches from East London to Tsitsikamma, winding past game reserves and beautiful sandy beaches. Or, travel along the ‘Wild Coast’ that stretches north from East London, and stop off at the Inkwenkwezi Private Game Reserve and spot South Africa’s ‘Big Five’ in their natural habitat, including the extremely rare white lion.
