Starting in the mother city, Cape Town has much to offer, such as the flat topped Table Mountain, which is awesome for hiking and providing you with an aerial view of Cape Town. Then there is the pulse of the city ? Long Street, which will provide you with all the food and entertainment needed on holiday. If that does not fulfil your holiday needs, the Cape area can provide you with a full day of education, sightseeing, breathe taking views and wine when partaking in a winelands tour.

Once you are finished having a whale of a time in Hermanus, you can then move along to South Africa's own little paradise ? The Garden Route. If walking around one of the many craft markets in Knysna trying to find the perfect African souvenir does not interest you, then why not head to the Knysna harbour and jump aboard a boat to view the Knysna heads.

When you are overwhelmed with humidity and the smell of freshly chopped spices you know you are in Durban. This city is almost as laid back and calm as its resident jazz musicians. Here you can spend you day on the beach, entertainment parks, shop till you drop and in the evening head out for the most authentic Indian meal of all times. Just a little way from Durban one can find the highest mountain range in Southern Africa ? The Drakensberg.

Take a walk on the wild side as you head for the wild coast of South Africa. The landscape of the Transkei is filled with lonely beaches, lush green hills, cattle and traditional mud huts. This authentic area can offer you much more than ever expected.
