Everybody knows what a scenic country South Africa! What we didn't expect that many encounters with the people were as memorable as the wildlife! Can't wait to go back!

South Africa has many game reserves and experiences to meet your desires. Ngala is a private game reserve where a smaller number of guests and experienced trackers and drivers can take you to what you want to see. I visited Ngala in 1998 and what a great experience of getting up close to leopards and lions. The bush vibe in private game reserves is a certain.
Easy to get around; Cheap, mostly nice accomodation; Great parks.

South Africa is really diverse from waterfalls and mountains to the national parks, wineries and warm oceans. I don't think you can experience such a variety in scenery in any other country. Weather is great and the temperature is normally quite warm (above 20'C). Food is lovely and water is drinkable.

As first-time safari-goers, South Africa was an excellent choice of destination for us. We got a taste of both luxury lodges and more 'earthy' accommodation, always with up-close wildlife experiences. We were treated to top-class hospitality all the way through. We booked and travelled with On Track Safaris and felt good about being in touch with local conservation efforts.

South Africa is a beautiful destination, with a wide diversity of landscape. As a country they have wholeheartedly embraced wildlife tourism, with a good balance of public and private reserves that cater for a range of budgets. For a Brit abroad it's great: they drive on the correct side of the road, and the majority of people speak English. Exchange rates are favourable, and the comparable cost of living is reasonable.

South Africa and the national parks here are some of the best that I've been to ... they're untouched and wild, and the people that frequent them have respect for one another and the environment which they're in.

heaven! dreaming of going back!
My boyfriend and I traveled to South Africa and had the most wonderful time. We traveled to uganda, kenya, tanzania and south africa. We did not think we would enjoy south africa as much as we did, however that was the highlight of our trip! it was beautiful and we even treated ourselves to 3 nights in sabi sands (staying at the wonderful Dulini lodge) where we saw a leopard kill!
We cant wait to return and are already trying to plan when we will go back! we would 100% recommend it.
