7 Top South Africa Highlights by Tania Wheeler
The nine provinces of South Africa are all very different and each have their own beauty. If you are short of time pick a highlight and take a day trip. Otherwise take a week or 2 and travel between them all.
Check out our top 7 ‘must see’ highlights of South Africa…
Kruger National Park
Only a few hours away from Johannesburg. You can’t be so close and not go and see the Big 5 in their natural environment.
Apartheid Museum in Soweto
We have a complicated history. After a visit you will have a new appreciation for your own freedom.
Township Tour in Soweto
A glimpse into the life of the average South African and a chance to see how South Africans live day to day.
Table Mountain
Hard to miss really. Cable cars run daily or you can hike up the mountain in good weather.
Addo Elephant National Park
Addo is smack in the middle of the Garden Route. Get up close to these gentle giants.
Robben Island Museum
Sadly famous because of Nelson Mandela’s imprisonment, but also a symbol of the quest for equality – don’t miss this.
Cape Point
An opportunity to take amazing photo’s in this National Park. So picturesque it is bound to move you.
