Luxury Safaris in South Africa – A World of Contrasts.
From cosmopolitan cities and celebrated vineyards to iconic wildlife and spectacular coastlines, South Africa is a destination of extraordinary diversity.
South Africa is a country of remarkable contrasts, where dramatic coastlines, rugged mountains, rolling vineyards, wildlife-rich savannahs and vibrant cities come together in one extraordinary destination. Rich in history, exceptional natural beauty and cultural diversity, it offers journeys that are as varied as the landscapes themselves, inviting travellers to experience Africa from many different perspectives.
Landscapes & Wildlife
Nature has shaped South Africa in extraordinary ways. It is home to an astonishing variety of ecosystems, from the wildlife-rich bushveld of the Greater Kruger region to the spectacular cliffs of the Garden Route and the iconic landscapes surrounding Cape Town. Along its southern coastline, two oceans meet, while inland, mountain ranges, grasslands and semi-desert landscapes create a country of striking geographical contrasts.
This diversity extends to the plant kingdom. South Africa is home to the Cape Floral Kingdom, the smallest of the world’s six floral kingdoms yet one of the richest in biodiversity. Despite occupying only a small corner of the country, it supports an astonishing variety of plant life, with more plant species than the entire Amazon rainforest. Among them is the iconic protea, South Africa’s national flower, together with thousands of species found nowhere else on Earth.
