Synopsis

South Africa is the most popular kid on the block in Africa and it’s easy to see why. The southern end of Africa teems with adventure: hike, bike and fly amid craggy peaks and open plains, catch a tantalising glimpse of streakily painted zebras in the savanna, encounter the vibrant cultures of San, Khoikhoi, Zulu and Xhosa. And when you’re ready for the high life, tour the vineyards or live it up in cities bursting with food, wine and culture.

Tickle Your Tastebuds – take our insider tips for the best restaurants, wineries, cafés and bars.

Unravel The Past – in-depth coverage of the region’s eventful history.

Get Active – handpicked listings so you know where to surf, dive, horse ride, sail, bike, hike and fly.

Be The Expert – know your impala from your steenbok with our wildlife special section.

Travel Safely – we keep you worded up on the scams, health issues and no-go areas.
