South Africa Budget Travel.

Visit destinations like Johannesburg, Cape Town, Kruger National Park, Stellenbosch, Blyde River Canyon, Knysna.

South-Africa is an unusual country for many reasons. It is a large country with different groups of people where 100 languages are spoken. For many years the small minority of whites ruled the country, owned the land and spoke their own language: Afrikaans. This variety explains the flag, a rainbow representing everyone.

South-Africa is one of the economic powerhouses of Africa and offers a lot of nature (safaris). It is rich because of its people and its resources (e.g. mining). Located between two oceans opens up a lot of new sea-opportunities like diving with sharks.
