South Africa is often referred to as “A World in One Country.” That's why it makes it onto so many people's bucket lists. Here are five reasons to visit South Africa at least once in your life.
The Big 5
South Africa is one of the very few places on Earth where you can see all of the Big 5 (buffalo, elephant, buffalo, lion, leopard, and rhino) in one day. The Big 5 is arguably one of the best reasons to visit South Africa. The country is one of the world’s finest Big 5 safari destinations thanks to its outstanding conservation areas and national parks like Kruger National Park.
Food & Wine
If you're looking for fantastic culinary delights, this is one of the best reasons to visit South Africa. Explore the beautiful estates, enjoy award-winning wines in cool cellars and on vine-covered patios, and relish some of the world's finest cuisine in its incredible restaurants.
Cape Town and Johannesburg are hubs for craft beer, great coffee, exciting markets, and inspiring restaurants that meld local flavors with international trends, all dished up with typical South African hospitality.
Family-Friendly Safaris
Your kids will love it! South Africa has plenty of child-friendly accommodations and loads of great options for a family holiday. If you bring children along on your once-in-a-lifetime, memorable South Africa vacation, make sure to go on several family-friendly safaris. Many of the safari tours will offer youth programs, shorter game drives, and educational games.
South Africa Beaches
Along South Africa’s Garden Route and KwaZulu-Natal's Indian Ocean coastline, you'll find long stretches of pristine soft sand lapped by waves that become warmer and warmer the further north you go. Boulders Beach even has a colony of endangered African penguins which waddle about.
Getting Around is Easy
South Africa makes it easy to get around with its well-established and maintained road network and infrastructure. It's easy to navigate and explore nearby destinations. Wi-Fi is widely accessible, the cellular network is excellent, ATMs are readily available, and self-drivers are never far from a gas station when you visit South Africa.
Of course, the list of reasons to visit South Africa doesn't end here. It would be too hard to name them all. Nonetheless, there are endless reasons one should make it a point to visit South Africa.
