South Africa
South Africa fulfils every adventure wish!

Impressions
Elephant, lion, zebra & co
Whether it's the world-famous Kruger National Park, the endless Kalahari or one of the many malaria-free, private game reserves - South Africa guarantees unforgettable safari experiences.
Springbok graze peacefully in the morning sun, watched by a pride of lions on the hunt. Large herds of elephants move through the bush and giraffes stretch their necks to reach the young acacia leaves. Unimpressed, the eternal cycle of life takes place in the bush, and you are right in the middle of it - completely relaxed in a comfortable safari vehicle or on a guided bush walk!
Melting pot cuisine with local wine accompaniment
Many cultures swing the cooking spoon at the Cape, creating something new, exciting and unusual.
The Pot Luck Club in the Old Biskuit Mill in the trendy Woodstock neighbourhood is representative of Cape Town's casual fusion cuisine. But you can also sample the traditional meats of springbok, kudu and ostrich at a cosy evening braai under the endless starry sky - and an exclusive wine tasting with top vintages from the region. The palette of experiences ranges from light white to black-red, from strawberry tones to chocolate flavours.
Dream, enjoy and let your thoughts fly
The ocean rushes against the cliffs outside the window, while you experience an aromatherapy safari with South African herbs in the cosy warmth. From colonial and cosy to trendy, from African chic to purist, the luxurious accommodation also contributes to the first-class travel experience. In the health and wellness spas, everything revolves around your health and wellbeing, centuries-old wine estates invite you to spend dreamy hours in lovely surroundings and the luxurious city hotels are young, dynamic and cosmopolitan.
Stunning mountain scenery and wild water
The sublime beauty of the Drakensberg is awe-inspiring! There is the perfect terrain for everyone, from steel ladder climbs up steep rock faces to leisurely routes through the extraordinary vegetation. In the Tsitsikamma National Park, the Otter Trail is one of the most beautiful hiking trails in the country with a rushing waterfall at the end. And if you're looking for more adventure, you can go white water rafting in the Orange River or abseil down Table Mountain - an adrenalin-fuelled thrill with a view.
Cape Town, Durban, Johannesburg
Multi-culturalism was invented in South Africa. African tradition meets European savoir vivre. Cape Town impresses with its location! Location! Location! at the foot of Table Mountain, art and design and a long history. Plan a stopover in Durban, the capital of joggers, surfers and beach walkers, with a wild cultural mix of Indian, African and post-colonial influences. And in the artists' quarter of Maboneng, Johannesburg is reinventing itself: trendy, chic and authentically African.
