South
Africa:
A sun-kissed rainbow nation, boasting magical landscapes, a golden
coastline and remarkable scenic and cultural diversity, South
Africa has it all. Its astonishing environments range from desolate
moonscapes, to forest-fringed coastlines, from the arid Karoo
to the verdant Drakensberg Mountains, from the manicured Cape
vineyards to the rugged Kruger National Park. This lovely land
deserves its reputation as “a world in one country”.
A World of diversity:
South Africa has a world of diversity to offer and we can organise
any activity you desire - from hiking in the bush and mountains,
to horse-riding, cycling, cultural tours and health spas. We can
also tailor-make golfing itineraries to some of the most spectacular
golf courses in the world. You can also choose to visit the nearby
kingdoms of Swaziland and Lesotho for spectacular
mountain scenery, horse-riding, hiking, 4x4 trips, fishing and
cultural experiences. |
