South Africa promotes itself as a "world in one country". Considering the varied scenery, mild climate and diversity of peoples and cultures, this is no idle boast.

Safaris - The Kruger National Park
Covering an area roughly the size of Wales, the Kruger National Park is the country 's largest and most famous wildlife park and has a diversity of animal life unequalled anywhere else on the continent. The park and the many adjoining private game reserves offer a variety of accommodation to suit most tastes and budgets. You can enjoy your holiday in a simple tent camp or a self-catering chalet. Or you can opt for a luxury lodge. Many visitors choose to drive themselves through the park, though tours are also available in luxury coaches.

But the best way to get the true "safari experience" is undoubtedly in an open 4x4 vehicle accompanied by a professional ranger and tracker. Just outside the Kruger National Park, you will find the beautiful "Panoramic Route", where you will enjoy the views from God 's Window. See the Blyde River Canyon, lots of waterfalls and the old gold digger town of Pilgrims Rest.
