Top South Africa Destinations

Our SouthAfrica top destinations are the must-sees in a country renowned for its diversity and beauty.

Among them you'll find South Africa's premier holiday resort Sun City, the world famous Kruger National Park, one of the world's most beautiful cities Cape Town, the uniquely scenic Garden Route, and the magnificent Drakensberg Mountains.

South African safaris are not just about the Kruger Park. Safari fans will want to visit parks and reserves in KwaZulu Natal, the Eastern Cape, Madikwe and Pilanesberg, as well as see the giants of the deep (whales and great white sharks) on the Whale Coast.

History buffs should pop into the Battlefields where history and beauty collide in the hills of Zululand - as beautiful as they are haunted with the ghosts of soldiers and warriors.

Although Johannesburg may not be on every traveller's itinerary, it's a vibey, fast-paced city. Many people stop over here on their way to other destinations in the country and there is a wide variety of Johannesburg accommodation to choose from.

Read our when to go to South Africa page is you're unsure on what the best time to visit South Africa is.

Today's travel writing tends to be cluttered with superlatives: the best this, the most that, but seldom does the experience match the hype. So it was with a cynical air that Go2Africa writer Dominic Chadbon took up the challenge of joining a 5-day hike from Cape Town to Cape Point, brazenly billed as encompassing some of the world's most scenic hiking trails, only to find that his jaw remained firmly on the ground for most of it. - Dominic Chadbon, 'Walking the Walk', September, 2008.
