Because the country is the cultivated Africa, it is not always easy to get really drowned into the bush atmosphere. Civilisation is often just a little to close

South Africa is hugely diverse and has nearly everything you want in an African destination, plus the urban attractions such as Cape Town. However, it is very popular, and the most spectacular game parks are overrun with tourists.

Although South Africa is not "Africa", it shows plenty athmosphere. I will always try to come back!

South Africa seems to have all the African wildlife that most people would like to see on a safari.

We visited South Africa for just over two weeks, spending five days in Ulusaba, Kruger, five days at Hluhluwe-Umfolozi and four days down at Durban and one day up at Sodwana bay to do some diving. The weather while we were there was great overall, we only had bad weather one day when we went out diving off a boat from Durban, but that was more the sea breeze.
The people were so hospitable, everyone was asking if we were enjoying ourselves, etc. Both game parks provided good food and places to sleep, bathrooms, etc.
The beach, sea and reef were amazing at Sodwana bay, 7 mile as it is known was beautiful and there were loads of fish around generally.

The vegetation in this area is the typical SA bush. If you want a savanna or forest landscape you should not come. No major lakes or rivers.

South Africa must be the top country in the world when it comes to Wild Life and is a mecca for birders. All game reserves are well organised and do everything to make visitors comfortable.
