South Africa

Commonly referred to as ‘The Rainbow Nation’, South Africa complements its hallowed nickname with the promise of vibrant cultures, extraordinary natural beauty and a significant dose of the African spirit you won’t find on any other continent.​

Africa’s most developed nation, South Africa presents the ideal introduction to this astonishing continent, offering a tempting blend of untamed and wild natural splendour with contemporary and exciting urban settings.

Come to South Africa to discover Cape Town’s laidback lifestyle, chase the notorious ‘Big 5’ on an unforgettable game drive through a game reserve, feel soft sands between your toes in Durban and trace spectacular vineyards and valleys on the picturesque Garden Route.

Visit Johannesburg, the largest city in South Africa and a fantastic spot for shopping. It was once home to Nelson Mandela and Desmond Tutu, with Mandela’s former residence now a museum.

South Africa has a subtropical climate with average summer temperatures of around 30°C. Being in the Southern Hemisphere seasons are reversed.
