best places to visit in south africa
Cape Town
Cape Town is one of South Africa’s three capital cities, serving as the seat of the Parliament of the nation. Also, Cape Town is the oldest city in the country, as well as the second-largest, after Johannesburg.
The gorgeous beaches, majestic mountain views, friendly people, and the mild, Mediterranean climate create a spectacular natural setting. Flanked by Table Mountain and overlooking the infamous Robben Island, Cape Town has a bit of everything – history, nature, culture. Explore the colorful streets of the Bo Kaap (a Cape Malay area) and wind your way above the treetops of Kirstenbosch before a picnic at the botanical gardens.
Kruger National Park
Kruger National Park is a South African National Park and one of the largest game reserves in Africa. It is located in north-eastern South Africa and covers an area of 19,623 km2.
The park covers an enormous stretch of ecosystems that support all kinds of wildlife – from grasslands and dense forests to thickets and dry riverbeds. Highlights include hippo and croc spotting from the Crocodile River viewpoint and a visit to the reconstructed Iron Age ruins of Masorini village. While park-run game drives are available regularly, Kruger is a fantastic game reserve to explore on a self-drive. By following the Sabie and Crocodile rivers you may get the chance to see lions, rhinos, elephants, buffaloes, and leopards.
