South Africa Handbook Footprint

The South Africa Handbook Footprint is invaluable for your trip to South Africa. The world knows South Africa first and foremost, for its incredible natural beauty. Your trip will take you through some of the most varied extreme environments in the world. The country offers landscapes as different as the tropical beaches of KwaZulu Natal to the sweeping emptiness of the Kalahari Desert.

Come to South Africa to see the Big Five. This is the collective term for elephant, rhino, buffalo, leopard and lion. But there are numerous other equally interesting animals, birds and marine species. Moreover, the choice of excellent parks and reserves across the country virtually guarantees sightings.

Outdoor life

Being outdoor is very much a way of life here. You can try hiking and surfing, or opt for one of the booming adrenaline sports such as bungee jumping or scuba-diving. South Africa’s history is compelling too. From the early hunter-gatherers to the arrival of the Europeans, to the breakdown of Apartheid, it’s history is amazing. Moreover, cave paintings, colonial architecture, lively townships, moving battlefields and contemporary museums reflect this.

Cities

The country’s vibrant cities are home to a fascinating mix of cultures and religions. There’s fast-paced sophistication of Johannesburg and Tshwane (Pretoria).
