The Mpumalanga Province in South Africa offers visitors a world-class tourism destination. Mpumalanga means "place where the sun rises" in the local SiSwati language and promises visitors spectacular scenery, exciting wildlife, private mountain retreats and some of South Africa's most diverse and vibrant African cultures.
This unique South African province is most famously home to the Kruger National Park and the Panorama Route. Located in the northeast of the country, bordering Mozambique and Swaziland, Mpumalanga offers easy travel into these 2 countries. Visitors can enjoy pleasant weather year-round, as well as a large variety of adventure sports, luxurious lodges and safari destinations.
Mpumalanga has rolling, green hills, intertwined by mountain passes with ancient stone tunnels and views of waterfalls after the rains. Some of the more adventurous roads are in poor condition, however, the route from OR Tambo airport to Hoedspruit is perfectly fit for newcomers and self-drivers.

Experience Mpumalanga
The most popular tourist attractions in the Western Cape are Cape Town, the Cape Winelands and the Cape Whale Route. Table Mountain is one of the most visited tourist sites in the Western Cape, as well as an historic trip to Robben Island.
Cape Town is renowned for its shopping and dining quality, with the Victoria and Alfred Waterfront forming the hub of city life. The beautiful Cape Winelands is only a short drive from Cape Town and the Whale Route destination of Hermanus is approximately 90 mins away. The Western Cape also offers a number of worthwhile wildlife reserves where guest can enjoy game drives and fantastic game viewing opportunities.
Last but not least, the Western Cape offers some of the most beautiful beaches in the world. White sand and clear (albeit cold) water, and a little drive away from the City itself puts one in touch with the more remote, yet equally as wonderful beach locations.
