ABOUT SOUTH AFRICA AND TOURIST ATTRACTIONS |
| |
| |
The great South African outdoors is definitely the place to be in this beautiful country South Africa with its incomparable year-round climate. Not surprisingly, nine out of ten overseas visitors to South Africa come primarily to experience the country’s wildlife and the magnificent, unspoiled scenic areas. Sunshine all year round means that the outdoor lifestyle is always in style, and there are dozens of adventure orientated options to choose from. Intrepid, ultra-fit thrill-seekers opt for hair-raising stunts such as bungi-jumping and diving with great white sharks. Climbers scale mountain peaks, and anglers stand in freezing streams waiting for an elusive trout to snatch the fly. You can participate activities such as golfing tours, horseback and camel safaris, big game fishing, hot air ballooning, helicopter rides and river rafting. |
