South Africa has the peculiarity of enabling you to have practically any holiday you prefer, or even to have 3 vacations in one! You might have a classic lazy beach holiday to begin with, then go for some adventurous safaris and eco-hiking tracks then end off with some outstanding nightlife, cultural occasions and wine tasting. This article checks out all these possibilities.
When planning your trip to SA, the first thing you must do is get your bearings. Safari land is in the north-western part of the country and is some hours' drive from Johannesburg or Durban. Air travel from Johannesburg to Cape Town is about 2 hours long. From Cape Town you have 2 coastlines, the warm Indian Ocean to the east, and the cool Atlantic Ocean to the west
The famous Garden Route runs along the N2 seaside roadway of the eastern coast. The Wine Route, also known as Route 62, at some point crosses the N2. It is 850 kilometers long and ends in PE. On the west coast, you have your N7 with the Namaqualand Flower Route, and Route 27, renowned for its open-air seafood bistros.
South Africa tours are practically all along these main axis.
Safaris in the north-western area of the country are wonderful since they include the Kruger National Park, which is world famous. When seeing this area, you can expect luxury lodges that are artfully designed as to blend harmoniously with the surrounding savannah. They often have Spas with open air massages and Jacuzzis. The rangers will take you out on game drives aboard open-jeeps and also for game walks. They are highly experienced on animal behavior and so you security is ensured, despite the fact that you may have a lion or rhino at arm's length, and without a fence in between!
Whilst in the area, it could definitely be worthwhile to visit the St Lucia Wetland Park in Kwazulu Natal; two hundred and eighty kilometers of virgin coastline and marshland that you can visit aboard little boats. The natural reserve is highly populated with birds, crocodiles, turtles and hippos.
From here, it is a good idea to take a flight directly to Cape Town, and then decide whether you are want to opt for "flowers and fish" along the west coastline or for "wine and beach" along the eastern coastline.
The west coastline is less touristy than the east coastline. Here you can enjoy the Cedaberg Mountains with its centuries old rock art, and check out stunning coastal towns like Saldanha, Paternoster, Langebaan and Lambert's Bay. Along the way you can switch over to the R 27 and enjoy seashore, outdoor restaurants.
In the spring it does rain a little, and the dry land is entirely changed with vibrant flowers that entirely cover the ground along stretches of land.
According to the Guinness Book of Records, this area has the second mildest climate in the world, second only to Hawaii. In winter it is rarely colder the ten degrees Celsius and in summer it seldom is hotter than twenty-nine degrees Celsius.
The Wine Route is 850 kilometers long and you will be able to taste wine and do wine tasting courses in Robertson, Wellington and Tulbagh, simply among others.
