South Africa is marked by two seasons: a hot and humid summer (November to March) and a dry cooler winter (April to October). The Western Cape region has winter rainfall from June to August. The good thing is that South Africa has something to offer for each season. Safari season is from April to October. From November to March, the beaches of the Western Cape are idyllic. If you come between June and September there is a fair chance you will see whales… And then there is the Kwazulu-Natal coast, perfect for bathing all year round.

We spent 5 days in Cape Town and 4 days in the Bush. All of them were delightful. There is so much to do and everything was interesting, exciting.

We had a wonderful trip organised with the support of the local agency. We enjoyed every destination and every moment of the trip. The Safari adventure looking for the Big Five at Limpopo region was the most exited. Driving to the wonders of the Garden Route and walling at Cape Town waterfront we enjoyed a lot.

It was a great itinerary to visit the main attractions between Cape Town and Johannesburg. A long trip by car to see cities, parks, coasts, mountains. I like to be free and stop whenever I want.
