South Africa

An amazingly diverse country, South Africa boasts picturesque beaches, dramatic mountains, cosmopolitan cities, fertile winelands and some of the best game viewing in the world and English is widely spoken. Situated in the southern hemisphere, it's blessed with an idyllic climate and seasons are at opposing times to the UK; summer in South Africa takes place during our winter. The lush Garden Route on South Africa's Western Cape is ideal for self-drives - look out for whales at Plettenberg Bay between July and November. Other must sees include Cape Town's Table Mountain, bushman's rock art in the Drakensberg Mountains and the battlefields in the Kingdom of the Zulu.
