SOUTH AFRICA
DESTINATION OVERVIEW
South Africa has some of the most beautiful natural landscapes, weather and wildlife you can find in the world. Because each province has a different climate, the wildlife and lifestyle varies all over the country. South Africa is the world's biggest producer of gold, platinum, chromium, vanadium, manganese and aluminum-silicates. It also produces nearly 40% of the world's chrome and vermiculite.
Cape Town is a port city on South Africa’s southwest coast, on a peninsula beneath the imposing Table Mountain. Slowly rotating cable cars climb to the mountain’s flat top, from which there are sweeping views of the city, the busy harbor and boats heading for Robben Island, the notorious prison that once held Nelson Mandela, which is now a living museum.

WINE TASTING
Our tour includes wine tasting at two different wineries. There is almost no such thing as an unattractive wine estate in Cape Town. Almost all benefit from dramatic views, fascinating architecture, and tranquility unlike anything else you’ll find in and around the city.
ROBBEN ISLAND
Robben Island is known for being the place former South African president Nelson Mandela was jailed for 18 of his 27 years, but the Island was the home of prisoners from outside South Africa, notably Namibia.
PENINSULA TOUR
Our Cape Peninsula tour begins with a scenic drive along the Atlantic coast, passing through the cosmopolitan suburbs of Sea Point and Camps Bay to Hout Bay, one of Cape Town’s best-kept secrets. Stops include: Cape Point and Boulders Beach.
