South Africa

Visit South Africa

Follow in Our Creative Travel Director's footsteps

It’s a destination I think often overlooked especially for winter sunshine. The country has so much to offer in one trip, wildlife, great food, amazing wine, scenery, adventure and history!

My Recommendations

  • Take as long as you can to enjoy all that South Africa’s has to offer.
  • Take a great camera as there are so many Instagram worthy spots!
  • Vary your accommodation to explore the real destination they have great guest houses, luxury villas, apartments, 5 star resorts and of course safari camps.
  • Explore as much as you can, so much to see and experience
  • Adrenaline junkies there is plenty there for you too – think shark cage diving, parasailing, cycling, climbing.

What I Loved Most

  • The variety of things to do
  • The food was incredible and very reasonable
  • Time the same as UK so no jet lag
  • The variety of wildlife everywhere as well as the expected Big Five.
  • The history – Robben Island trip is a must to understand the apartheid and history
  • The friendly people.
