Safari In South Africa - 7 Things To Do You Mustn't Miss Whilst On Your South Africa Luxury Safari
Safari in South Africa - Safari as described in the dictionary says, "an overland expedition ...", so we have taken poetic licence to include many excursions overland to see spectacular sights. Here in no particular order are our top 7 things to do South Africa guide.
Idea 1 - Swim with the Penguins. A sight not to be missed! African Penguins living alongside humans on Boulders beach. Share your swim in the warmer Indian Ocean waters with these special birds who take it all in their stride.
Idea 2 - Walk or be whisked up Table Mountain. Don't forget to take warm clothing even on the hottest day, as the air is very much cooler up there. The views from the cable car and the top are breathtaking.
Idea 3 - Drive the Panorama Drive and pass through God's Window! What more could you wish for than to see the most dramatic of scenery on this drive through Mpumalanga north of Johannesburg through the Blyde River Canyon. Don't forget to take in Bourke's Luck Potholes, the Three Rondavels and The Pinnacle along the route.
Idea 4 - Soweto. This really is an experience not to be missed and is definitely a place you must visit for yourself to make up your own mind. Discover the true story of Hector Pietersen and where Nelson Mandela lived before his incarceration on Robben Island.
Idea 5 - The Otter Trail through Tsitsikamma Forest. Take the hike through the most spectacular of scenery along the rugged coastline with secluded valleys and deep river gorges plunging down to the sea. Watch out for the numerous birds including the Emerald Cuckoo, Knysna and olive Woodpecker, Chorister Robin and Grey Cuckooshrike.
Idea 6 - Kimberley's Big Hole is literally a huge hole created by diamond miners in their rush to dig out the diamonds lying on the surface of a nearby hill. Needless to say that the hill is no more and the diamonds have been exhausted too! But the hole is still a sight to be seen.
Idea 7 - Kruger National Park. No trip to South Africa would be complete without a visit to this territory the size of Wales. Rich in both flora and fauna, this truly is a national park for everyone and offers everyone a unique experience whether you stay in a tent or on one of the many luxury safari lodges.
