Luxury South African holidays promise wildlife, culture and extraordinary gastronomy. 'A world in one country' is how the southernmost country on the African continent is often described. There are vast windswept deserts with honey-coloured dunes, sun-drenched, vineyard-covered mountains and pulsating, vibrant cities. And competitive exchange rates with the Rand make South Africa one of the most affordable destinations in the continent too.
Safari holidays in South Africa are without par, there are multiple game reserves and luxury safari lodges to choose from: Kruger, Samara, Madikwe or Kwazulu Natal where hippo, giraffe, wildebeest, zebra, meerkats, wild dogs, kudu, hyena and ostrich can be spotted.
Malaria-free regions are a good choice for family holidays in South Africa, Kwandwe Private Game Reserve is excellent, before a few days on the beach at Plettenberg or Walker Bay. For a special family occasion, rent a private house with ocean views or one deep in the bush.
