Reasons to go:   South Africa offers so much in terms of fantastic scenery, unbelievable adventures, rich culture, amazing food, and incredible nature with its abundant wildlife. I was there for 9 days in December 2012 as a solo traveler. It was summer in South Africa and a fantastic time to visit.
My first stop was in the Hoedspruit car rentals in memphis area in the private Balule reserve of the Greater Kruger car rentals in memphis National Park on safari with Naledi Enkoveni. Naledi offers 2 lodges, Enkoveni and Bush Camp. I had an amazing 2 days and 4 safari drives with them and saw everything from impala, giraffe, zebra, baboons and warthogs to the Big 5. It was incredible to be up close and personal with African elephants, lions, the elusive car rentals in memphis leopard and more. I really enjoyed watching a hippo in the Olifants River as well as various antelope and baboons at play across the river. car rentals in memphis They offer great lodging, fantastic food, beautiful scenery, and amazing safari drives and are very welcoming. The price is also very affordable, especially for what you get.
In Cape Town I stayed at The Backpack hostel. They are highly rated on Trip Advisor and participate in the Pack With a Purpose program and other responsible tourism endeavours. It was a fantastic location and a great, reasonably priced place to stay. While in Cape Town, I also saw the most stunning sunset over the Atlantic Ocean from Signal Hill.
I enjoyed an interactive and ethical township car rentals in memphis tour with James Fernie of Uthando car rentals in memphis South Africa. I highly, car rentals in memphis highly recommend a tour with Uthando. We got to visit 3 projects and interact with the people of the Khayelitsha Township as well as learn of the inspiring things being done there. A portion of the tour cost goes directly to the projects Uthando supports.
Adventurous types can go cage diving with Great White Sharks. It was so incredible to be front row in the cage to see the ocean s greatest predator and misunderstood creature. They were a joy to watch and it was definitely a once in a lifetime experience.
Did you know there are penguins in South Africa? There is a colony car rentals in memphis of African penguins in the Cape Peninsula car rentals in memphis area of Boulders Beach. There are many tour operators offering an opportunity to visit them.
I felt very safe in South Africa and had amazing experiences, but my favourite thing about South Africa was the people. They were warm and welcoming no matter where I went. From spontaneous drumming with a young shopkeeper at the popular V A waterfront car rentals in memphis arts and crafts building to hearing the personal path of an apprentice Sangoma in a local township to singing Christmas carols with 5000 locals against the backdrop of Table Mountain, it was the most incredible trip of my life. My trip there would have only been a series of proud bucket list type accomplishments without the interactions with the people of South Africa. It was truly special. I cannot wait to return.
I love Africa. Watching and doing research on wild life is my passion. I also need good accommodation if i go there. Last time i visited Donegal. I stayed in Great northern Hotel Donegal. It was a fabulous experience.
I am South African and I m so glad the message of how safe and beautiful my country car rentals in memphis is, is getting out there on my travels overseas the first question I am always asked by fellow travellers is so is it safe to live there? . Just one comment on languages, we have 11 official languages but the four main ones are Afrikaans, Zulu (spoken in the north of the country), Xhosa (spoken in the south) and English, these are the 4 most people speak.
Great article. I visited South Africa a few months ago and loved it. I would agree with your comment about the people. That s what made South Africa stand out from other places we visited during the trip. One area that I particularly enjoyed was the town of Franschhoek and its surrounding car rentals in memphis wineries. Great food, good wine, beautiful scenery car rentals in memphis and just a short drive from Cape Town.
