South Africa's tourism promotions aptly declare it to be "A world in one country". Geographically, there are extremes: from the snow capped peaks of the Drakensberg, to lush subtropical coasts, rugged and fertile Cape valleys, and the semi-desert of the Karoo.
South Africa recognises eleven official languages, and plays host to a huge diversity of people such as Zulus, Xhosa, Sotho, descendants of English, Dutch and French settlers, and the Cape Muslims whose roots lie in Asia.
No matter what your budget, South Africa provides excellent value for money and a huge variety of safari modes, whether you're interested in self-drive adventures, or top quality lodges and boutique hotels. Most of those who have travelled in South Africa also love the Cape winelands for the stunning scenery, gentle pace and delicious food and wine.
