Western Cape
One of the most popular tourism destinations in South Africa is Cape Town, situated in the Western Cape. Home to the iconic Table Mountain and the beautiful (although sometimes freezing) waters of the Atlantic and Indian Oceans, Cape Town offers the perfect combination of nightlife and scenic beauty.

Northern Cape
The Orange River, which travels through Lesotho, South Africa and Namibia, is best experienced when one river rafts or canoes down its picturesque path. The Northern Cape is also very well known for the Namaqualand flowers, which bloom once a year and offer up a spectacular blanketed landscape of colour.

Eastern Cape
In the Eastern Cape you’ll find Jeffreys Bay, best known as an ideal surfing location. Other spots to visit in the Eastern Cape are Port Elizabeth, and the various nature reserves that offer game viewing.

Kwazulu Natal
Kwazulu Natal offers warm water and green vibrant landscapes. The Drakensberg, extending all the way along Kwazulu Natal’s western boundary, offers beautiful scenery, especially given the way the landscape changes as it interacts with the changing light throughout the day.

Free State
The Golden Gate National Park, found in the Free State, is so named because of the golden colour reflected on the reserve’s sandstone cliffs by the sun. This park offers up a huge range of endangered wildlife.

North West Province
The best known location in the North West Province is undoubtedly Sun City. This holiday destination has luxury hotel facilities and a world-renowned casino. It is also in this province that the Heritage Park Project has been established, in an effort to conserve the fantastic natural beauty of the area.

Mpumalanga
God’s Window, offering a beautiful view, can be found here in an area known as Paradise Country. Paradise country is also known for its lush forests and the unique rock formations of Blyde River Canyon.

Gauteng
Here you will find Johannesburg, the economic buzz site of South Africa. Johannesburg is home to a huge variety of people, who are known to be welcoming and vibrant. The Market Theatre, well known for its role in protest theatre during the Apartheid era, plays host to the best of South African talent – of which there is much.
