This book has everything for everyone, whether you love living (or taking a break) by the water/ beach or you are a city dweller at heart, there is something for you.  All attractions can be found listed alphabetically where you can tick off your favourite sites in the Quickfinder as you visit them.

Exploring South Africa with Make the Most of your Time in South Africa, whether you are a local or an international tourist,  is a great way to make South Africa your ‘rainbow destination’. South Africa is renowned as a beautiful land rich in diversity and culture and when you see its exquisite beaches, stunning countryside and rugged mountain backdrops, you’ll understand why. Nelson Mandela once attested to this by saying that he believes “…that South Africa is the most beautiful place on earth. Admittedly, I am biased but when you combine the natural beauty of sunny South Africa with the friendliness and cultural diversity of our people, and the fact that the region is a haven for Africa’s most splendid wildlife, then I think that we have been blessed with a truly wonderful land.”

Contact details of all nearby places to visit are also included in the book for each chapter

One moment you might be cage-diving with great white sharks, the next you’re riding an ostrich in the Little Karoo or sipping wine in the Cape Winelands. If these things aren’t highlighted in your bucket list yet, make sure you get your hands on this book.
