WELCOME TO
South Africa
South Africa is a large, diverse and incredibly beautiful country. It
varies from the picturesque Garden Route towns of the Western
Cape to the raw subtropical coast of northern KwaZulu-Natal,
with the vast Karoo semi-desert across its heart and one of Africa’s
premier safari destinations, Kruger National Park, in the northeast.
Situated at the southern tip of Africa, South Africa is 1 233 404km² in
size and is edged on three sides by nearly 3 000km of coastline, with
the Indian Ocean to the east and the Atlantic Ocean to the west. The
country is bordered in the north by Namibia, Botswana, Zimbabwe
and Mozambique, and also encloses two independent countries,
the kingdoms of Lesotho and Swaziland.
Many visitors are pleasantly surprised by South Africa’s excellent
infrastructure, which draws favourable comparison with countries
such as Australia or the United States. Good air links and bus
networks, excellent roads and a growing number of first-class B&Bs
and guesthouses make South Africa a perfect touring country.
The tourism industry is well established with an exciting sector of
emerging entrepreneurs.
The country is strong on adventure, sport, nature and wildlife, and
is a pioneer and global leader in responsible tourism.
South Africa is known for its long sunny days, hence the title, ‘Sunny
South Africa’. Most of the nine provinces have summer rainfall,
except for the Western Cape, which experiences winter rainfall.
The high-lying areas of the interior can be chilly in winter (June to
August months).

VICTORIA & ALFRED WATERFRONT
So much has been lavished, praised and gushed
about the essence of Cape Town that we could
hardly add to the monumental cannon of
tributes, metaphors and eulogies. Instead, here
are the top 3 attractions that we feel must be
experienced in any visit to the Mother City:
There are few experiences more thrilling than
being whisked directly up the intricate rock-
face via the state-of-the-art Table Mountain
Cableway. It’s a 5 minute ride that you won’t
want to end, as the rotating cars present 360
degree panoramic views of the increasingly
distant city.
Down below, framed by the Atlantic Ocean and
Table Mountain, lies the ancient V&A Waterfront.
Here, entertainment venues, shopping arcades
and gourmet cafes seamlessly merge with fresh
sea breeze to create a milieu of cosmopolitan
activity.
At a short distance from this frenzy, sits the
historic lighthouse of Cape Point, perched
precariously above the Atlantic Ocean, with awe
inspiring vistas from the southernmost tip of
Africa.

tourism and farming region of the Western Cape
Province.
Mossel Bay is situated exactly half way between
CapeTown-theprovincialcapitaloftheWestern
Cape Province – and Port Elizabeth (both 400
km away), so it’s your ideal holiday destination,
and the logical place to stop and relax on any
local itinerary.
The older parts of the town occupy the north-
facing side of the Cape St Blaize Peninsula,
whilst the newer suburbs straddle the Peninsula
and have spread eastwards along the sandy
shore of the Bay.
More than 60 kilometres of beaches - and warm,
beach-going weather throughout the year (with
at least 300 days of sunshine in every 365!); The
riches of the Indian Ocean, the Cape fynbos,
and the Outeniqua Mountains; Culture that
stretches back over 164,000 years; 21st century
infrastructure; and accommodation for every

be etched in your memory for life.
Champagne air, Fynbos covered mountains,
sparkling sea vistas, a rich marine life and the
best land based whale watching in the world,

  • 1. WELCOME TO South Africa South Africa is a large, diverse and incredibly beautiful country. It varies from the picturesque Garden Route towns of the Western Cape to the raw subtropical coast of northern KwaZulu-Natal, with the vast Karoo semi-desert across its heart and one of Africa’s premier safari destinations, Kruger National Park, in the northeast. Situated at the southern tip of Africa, South Africa is 1 233 404km² in size and is edged on three sides by nearly 3 000km of coastline, with the Indian Ocean to the east and the Atlantic Ocean to the west. The country is bordered in the north by Namibia, Botswana, Zimbabwe and Mozambique, and also encloses two independent countries, the kingdoms of Lesotho and Swaziland. Many visitors are pleasantly surprised by South Africa’s excellent infrastructure, which draws favourable comparison with countries such as Australia or the United States. Good air links and bus networks, excellent roads and a growing number of first-class B&Bs and guesthouses make South Africa a perfect touring country. The tourism industry is well established with an exciting sector of emerging entrepreneurs. The country is strong on adventure, sport, nature and wildlife, and is a pioneer and global leader in responsible tourism. South Africa is known for its long sunny days, hence the title, ‘Sunny South Africa’. Most of the nine provinces have summer rainfall, except for the Western Cape, which experiences winter rainfall. The high-lying areas of the interior can be chilly in winter (June to August months). DATE: FEBRUARY 2016 PRICE: R000 JTB NORWAY: +47 22 41 33 30 info@jtbnorway.com
