1. Safari in Kruger Park. While you are not guaranteed to see the “Big 5” during your safari outings, there is a strong possibility, as the park is saturated with wildlife. I was lucky and saw all of them on my 1st day out in the bush. The joy you will get when spotting an animal in their natural habitat is indescribable!
2. Climb Table Mountain in Cape Town. Table Mountain stands in the middle of Cape Town and is surrounded by beaches and wine vineyards. The hike will take you around 2-4 hours depending on your athletic ability. There is a cable car you can take if you do not feel like walking, however the reward at the end of the hike is worth the sweat. At the top is a 360° view of Cape Town and within seconds you understand why it considered the most beautiful city in the world.
3. Cage Dive with Great White Sharks in Gansbaii. This is probably the craziest and most dangerous experience you will ever have in your life, but not only will you be able to brag that you swam next to one of the world’s deadliest known predators, you will also have the thrill of a lifetime. Up close and personal these scary creatures are quite majestic and even though your heart will be racing, afterwards you will proud of yourself for having the courage.
4. Visit Soweto Township in Jo’berg. While shanty towns exist all over the country, the largest and most well-known one is Soweto. Here is where you will find the pulse of the heart of the nation and where the culture still thrives. It will touch your heart and soul and you will understand South Africa much better.
5. Tour Nelson Mandela’s jail cell on Robin Island. No trip to South Africa is complete without a visit to the country’s most infamous prison due to the involuntary residency of Nelson Mandela for 27 years. While, it is no longer a prison today, it acts as a monument to the freedom struggle during the apartheid era, a period that will never and should never be forgotten.

Cape Town is just great, rated in the top 5 cities in the world on numerous occasions - Table Mountain, VA Waterfront, Robben Island, Hout Bay, Kommetje, Wine Routes in Stellenbosch and Franshoek, great nightlife.

Garden Route traveling on the east coast from Cape Town visit places like Knysna and Jeffreys Bay amongst many others.

Wild Coast - far north of Durban beautiful scenery and beaches.

Game Parks, Kruger National Park in the north east of the country, Pilansberg - less than 2 hours drive from Johannesburg and then the parks in Kwazulu Natal, Umfolozi.

Numerous private game parks for safaris and game hunting - Sabi Sabi very upmarket and expensive.

St Lucia wetlands national park definitely worth a visit.

There are simply to many to mention, take a look at this site that gives you all the tourist attractions in each of the 9 provinces in South Africa.

Also don't forget to take the panoramic tour when in Mpumalanga.

Mpumalanga is the 3rd most visited province in South Africa,which is a must visit!

There are quite a few tour operators in the area that can assist you with this #bucketlist tour.

What makes these tours so convenient is that you can work this day tour in when visiting the Kruger National park, that is also in the same province.spinning smiley sticking its tongue out

I hope this info helps when planning your next trip.

Happy Travels
