When out on safari you definitively got the "bush vibe", but this is a relatively small park only a few hours by car from Johannesburg.

South Africa is a great destination, with experiences to suit all different tastes.
Cape Town is a beautiful city, the Cape Peninsula is a fantastically scenic area, as is Stellenbosch and the Cape wine country just outside of Cape Town. Johannesburg is different altogether, and students of apartheid will have a first hand experience of the legacy of apartheid and study it close up. We did not go to the bustling commercial melting pot of Durban, but would love to do so. We did go to Sun City, but did not go on any game drives there.

There are many different stunning game reserves. Some are very dangerous and you have absolutely to keep you on the safety rules. If you follow this rules, you will have an unforgettable experience.

This being my only trip to South Africa, I can't speak to other lodges or reserves, but my experience here was an absolute once-in-a-lifetime experience. Since that time, I have spoken with others and have become friends with others who have taken trips to various lodges and reserves and all had brilliant things to say. It is definitely a must-do, bucket-list destination if you're a wildlife lover!

One word - diversity. It is a 'world in one country', with myriad different habitats and landscapes in a relatively small area (compared to say Australia or the USA). Ease of travel is another big plus.

In my opinion South Africa is perfect for safaris especially if it's your first or second time in Africa. You have the wildlife mostly intact and often pretty close (compared to some Eastern African Countries), usually it's not to crowded and you get the same standards in food and accomodation you're used to, often even better.

South Africa has so much to offer and is very diverse in its safari destinations. Visited different parks on different holidays over the past years and still hope to cross them all of my list someday. South Africa hasn't seen the last of me yet!
