South Africa

South Africa is ranked as the largest travel and tourism economy in Africa and as the 32nd most popular tourist destination in the world. With its abundance of natural beauty and some of the most iconic landscapes it was recently rated as the tenth most beautiful country to see.

With a spectacular coastline stretching 2800 kilometres (1720 miles) it hosts some of the most spectacular dive sites, pristine beaches and vibrant coastal cities in the world. The coastline is presided over by two great oceanic systems: a powerful current on one side of the continent and a strong upwelling on the other. This has resulted in the most amazing locations with great biodiversity and natural beauty.

Our coastline alone provides more than enough beauty, adventure and fun for any visitor. South Africa offers world famous shark diving at Protea Banks and tropical reef diving at Sodwana Bay that is ranked amongst the top ten dive sites in the world.

Inland we have magnificent mountains and some of the best hiking destinations in the world. You can find unspoilt canyons and gorges in the most beautiful African settings. Our weather is perfect for long hikes and enjoying bonfires in the most breathtaking settings at night.

If the magnificent coastlines and mountains with their world class diving and hiking weren't enough, we have our world famous and much sought after safaris. Thousands of tourists visit South Africa every year to see our amazing wildlife in the beautiful South African bush. The Big 5 (Lions, Rhinoceros, Elephants, Cape Buffalo and Leopards) are always the highlight on any safari and are amongst the hundreds of species to see while driving through the most unique ecosystems in the world. Relaxing around campfires at night surrounded by the sounds of African wildlife is an unforgettable memory for all visitors to our splendid nature reserves.

With everything South Africa has to offer, rated as being the tenth most beautiful country in the world, our tour packages focus on making South Africa a top ten tourist destination in the world. Where it belongs.

Packing for Your Tour Made Easy

Over and above the items for hiking there are several items that you should not forget to pack. We know packing can be a nightmare so we have simplified it for you and created a complete checklist with everything you will require.

Hiking Breathtaking African Landscapes

Hiking is not only healthy for your body but also for your mind and spirit. It’s the best all-round form of exercise. It strengthens the large muscles in your body, while burning fat and stimulating the feel-good chemical hormones of adrenaline and endorphins that boost your mood and energy levels. All this while surrounded by nature and taking in beautiful landscapes around you.

Big 5 & Blue Skies

A holiday/vacation in South Africa is incomplete without stopping over at one of our many incredible game reserves. Our reserves are bountiful and vary in their appearance from one region to another in this beautiful country. From savannah grasslands to deep canyons and heavily vegetated hills and mountains, rivers and lakes, streams and coastlines. All under beautiful blue African skies. We visit two of the most famous reserves in South Africa during our tours. The Kruger National Park and Hluhluwe-iMfolozi Park.

PADI Deep Diver

Reach new depths, discover new dive sites, and learn about deep dive planning, dive limits and gas management. During the PADI Deep Diver course, you'll learn how to plan deep dives, manage your gas supply and how to identify and manage narcosis. You'll learn about buddy contact procedures, safety considerations and buoyancy control at depth.

PADI Enriched Air (Nitrox) Diver

Extend your bottom time, shorten your surface intervals and dive deeper on repetitive dives. Enriched air, also known as Nitrox or EANx, contains less nitrogen than regular air. Breathing less nitrogen means you can enjoy longer dives and shorter surface intervals. No wonder Enriched Air Diver is the most popular PADI specialty.
