If a vacation fits into your future plans, consider a visit to the Dark Continent, where the wonders of South Africa beckon to be discovered.
Opt for one of the many escorted tours; and if time allows, combine it with a few days relaxing and enjoying the Mediterranean coast of Israel. Or choose among the holyland tours designed for scuba enthusiasts.
In Africa, the experience begins with arrival in Cape Town and a visit to Table Mountain, from where the scenery is like nothing you’ve witnessed before. As you pass the many seaside resorts you’ll come across beautiful beaches, ideal for swimming and snorkeling. Nature enthusiasts will take great pleasure in touring Cape Point Nature Reserve, while history buffs will find Simonstown quite interesting. If the weather allows, don’t miss out on the opportunity to go for a boat ride to Seal Island. And upon return to Cape Town, you can delight in the fabulous cuisine that the vast array of restaurants can offer.
On your next day in beautiful South Africa, sign up for a tour of the wine-producing regions of Paarl and Stellenbosch. Visit the 18th century University Town and drive through the picturesque Cape Dutch area.
Don’t miss the chance to travel through “the garden route.” You’ll feast your senses on the richness of the land, the magnificence of its imposing mountains, its turquoise blue lakes and emerald green forests.
In this part of the world, you can learn about 18th century history with a journey to Swellendam; and about prehistoric times with an excursion to the Cango Caves.
And if you’re traveling with your children, take them to an ostrich farm; or make reservations at one of the hotels located amidst the wilderness in the town of George. There, you can camp under the stars while the sounds of the jungle lull you to sleep.
If you’re looking for more intense activity, plan on extending your trip to Knysna where you can go hiking. Or opt for an adventure through the Forest of the Tsitsikamma. You may then fly out to Johannesburg from where you’ll depart for home, or to Tel Aviv to begin your tour of the holy Land.
The wonders of South Africa are yours to discover.
