South African Travel Adventure

South Africa is well known the world over for its tumultuous history, both with the British but also within the country itself.  Although racial segregation forms a major part of the country’s reputation in the past fifty years, there is so much more to be discovered in South Africa as we know it today.  Part of its charm lies in the fact that it was largely overlooked during the years of apartheid and has developed a culture that is unique and filled with potential.  There are still many areas that are undeveloped but in the same breath, the countries hospitality standards can easily be compared to the best in the world.

Why South African Travel is the Perfect Option

One of the best reasons to visit the country is that the exchange rate will make your trip very cost-effective.  You are guaranteed to receive a world-class reception for the fraction of the price of an expensive holiday.  With the rand generally sitting at about 6 to the dollar and ZAR11 to the pound, you can get so much more for your money than you would in other countries.

While the culture is entirely unique and the feel of South Africa is very different to anywhere else, there is a strong western culture as well.  Contrary to popular belief, there are no lions, tigers and other ferocious creatures running around in people’s gardens, unless they live on a game reserve.  So, you’ll be far removed enough from the norm that you experience something extraordinary but not pushed into a country that you feel totally lost and uncomfortable in.  With recent developments in the transport system for the 2010 Fifa World Cup, the country is more prepared for visitors than ever before.

Highlights of South African Travel

The Garden Route is one of South Africa’s most beautiful natural resources and boasts long stretches of flowers all along the coast.  However, this is certainly not all there is to see.  The wine lands are equally impressive and famous brands like Nederberg, Four Cousins, Fairview and Tall Horse are shipped across the world regularly.  The best part?  You can get them for half the price from the source and enjoy the best locally made cheese and farmland scenery you could imagine.

South Africa also has a wild and diverse nightlife for ages and lifestyles. Casinos like Grand West are not only hubs for having a good time and potentially making some money but have also hosted international artists like 30 Seconds to Mars and Rammstein.  Similarly, the Coca-Cola dome and Greenpoint Stadium have seen singers like Kelly Clarkson, Kelly Rowland, Lionel Ritchie, Mariah Carey, Celine Dion and recently Immogen Heap also made her debut South African appearance at the Paul Cluver Amphitheatre.  There are always a host of international and local acts to keep you entertained.  Every major town has a strip of nightclubs but Cape Town is said to be the most liberal of those with Johannesburg hosting the high-ballers and the wild!
