South Africa has come a long way from its dark past. Today, it’s a world-class destination for tourists who travel to visit vineyards, embark on safaris, go shopping and taste fine dining.
Cape Town, in particular, is an excellent spot for surfing, shark cage diving and watching sports. Several national parks throughout South Africa offer the best opportunities to spot the Big Five animals.
