SOUTH AFRICA
TRIP 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 alumino-silicates. It also produces nearly 40% of the world's chrome and vermiculite. Durban is the largest port in Africa and the ninth largest in the world.
Cape Town, South Africa (4 nights)
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.
Johannesburg, South Africa (3 night)
Johannesburg, South Africa's biggest city and capital of Gauteng province, began as a 19th-century gold-mining settlement. Its sprawling Soweto township was once home to Nelson Mandela and Desmond Tutu. Mandela’s former residence is now the Mandela House museum. Other Soweto museums that recount the struggle to end segregation include the somber Apartheid Museum and Constitution Hill, a former prison complex.

HIGHLIGHTS
CAPE TOWN CITY TOUR
Our city tour includes stops at Bokaap, district six museum, and the long walk to freedom exhibit. The Long March to Freedom exhibition is a collection of 100 life-size figures that will in time grow into a procession of over 400 bronze statues. They depict the country's 350-year struggle for freedom and democracy.
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.
APARTHIED MUSEUM
The Pillars of the Constitution is the first exhibit visitors see when visiting the Apartheid Museum. Located in the courtyard, it includes one pillar for each of the seven values enshrined in the South African Constitution: democracy, equality, reconciliation, diversity, responsibility, respect, and freedom.
