With its rich history steeped in turmoil, struggle and eventually democracy and freedom, South Africa, affectionately known as the “Rainbow Nation”, is brimming with adventure. Boasting 11 official languages and home to all races and creeds, it’s difficult to have a boring time when visiting. Yes, crime is a ubiquitous part of South African life which can keep you on your toes, but if you are street smart, you will enjoy all that it has to offer. From internationally acclaimed wines to beautiful nature bar none, traverse this multi-coloured nation from cosmopolitan Joburg to hipster Cape Town and feel the vibrant electricity in the air.
