South Africa

Bordered by two oceans, South Africa is a mosaic of extraordinarily beautiful landscapes: national parks and nature reserves, major cities, mountains and canyons, beaches, turquoise waters and small villages.

 

South Africa is an absolutely unique country, benefiting from its location at the southern end of the world's most fascinating continent, in a region that offers more scenery than the world's photographers could possibly capture.

Johannesburg

Johannesburg, or Jo’burg as it is more commonly known, is South Africa’s largest city, situated on an interior plateau known as the Highveld. Johannesburg is one of South Africa’s key gateway cities and offers an array of exciting sightseeing options.

 

There's something for everyone - museums that examine the country's apartheid past, the city's exciting new Constitutional Court, a look at the city's gold mining beginnings, traditional African medicine and plenty of animals and outdoor fun.
