Southern Africa safari adventure

A trip to Southern Africa is a genuine adventure. This astonishingly diverse region of Africa offers visitors breathtaking safari experiences in a myriad of environments from deserts and deltas to thriving cosmopolitan cities, impressive mountain ranges and coastlines. Marked by a sub-tropical and temperate climate, it’s easy to understand the attraction when coupled with Big Five safaris, an outstanding diversity of accommodation offerings and some of the best food and wines in the world.

Southern Africa also plays host to some outstanding food and wine festivals, sporting events, music events and brilliant arts festivals like Africa Burn that sees large sculptures set on fire in the desert. There are natural displays of colour too like the wildflowers where the alchemy of rain and nascent sun transforms the semi-arid plains of the west coast of South Africa into a living canvas.

There are beautiful tropical beaches and coastlines on the east much like Australia and the eerie, fog-hazed Skeleton Coast on the west.
