Can view well over 70% of all lands animals in South Africa, the weather and scenery is breath taking. People are knowledgeable about their surrounds and friendly.

Eye opening experiences in an amazing country
Overall rating
5/5

South Africa is an amazing country to visit and I recommend it to everyone that I can. I was there studying abroad so I had almost 5 months to experience what I did. I stayed in Stellenbosch for most of my time there, but I did travel on an outside (of my study abroad group) trip to Kruger National Park that was incredible. I also traveled along the Garden Route for a week, which was beautiful. Cape Town was such a fun city to explore - lots of shopping, restaurants, a waterfront area and a lively nightlife. Although I stayed in a part that was settled, there were still plenty of areas that were very rural. I miss South Africa and recommend it as a vacation destination!

Where else in the world can you within a 1000km radius see wildlife and scenic beauty as found in the Kruger Park, Kalahari, Busmanland, Garden Route, the Drakensberg, West Coast and round it of with the wine routes around Cape Town. We really enjoyed our time

Besides the Kruger (and all the hundreds of private game reservers around), you have the Kalahari, Cape Town with Cape-Dutch vineyards, Garden Route, Drakensberg, Soweto and the West Coast. What more can you ask for within a 1000 km?

South Africa is simply the best place in the world for viewing wildlife in luxury while still being close to civilisation.

From A to Z, SA has everything I saw at the zoo as a child, but wild. no fences. no feeding times. no safety of your own backyard.. maybe one of those things isn't true, but SA is definitely a once in a lifetime destination for any tourist.

Everything is good. I was at the north of SA next to the frontier of botswana. The only thing I regret it's a lot of farms or safari have some fences compare to botswana where all animals is free. Except that it's a very good destination, I didn't get the chance to go to kruger park but I heard a lot of comments that it's awesome.
