Bathed by the Atlantic Ocean and the Indian Ocean, South Africa is a mosaic of hilly landscapes and stunning countryside. The mix of the different cultures of the Cape and Johannesburg makes these cities choice destinations for gourmets eager to taste Afrikaner cuisine. South Africa is the country of diversity. You will visit Robben Island, the island upon which Nelson Mandela was shut away for 18 years during Apartheid, and at the same time you will discover a country deeply marked by its history. You will stroll over the dunes of Arniston, will be amazed by the ostrich farms on the mountainous tracks of little Karoo and will end your excursion in the crystal clear waters of the rapids of the Tsitsikamma national park. The country also has a reputation for the quality of its wine. A walk in the bucolic region of Boland will enable you to sample the country's best wines directly at the producers. Finally, what would a trip to South Africa be without a safari to the heart of the most beautiful of wild animal reserves? You are bound to be charmed by the elephants, rhinos and tigers that populate the Kruger region.

I chose to spend a month in this reason as it offers possibilities for adventure and discovery The places that I would recommend most are: the Drakensberg mountains, the Hluhluwe-Umfolozi Reserve and the surrounding area of St Lucia village. The road network is dense and well maintained. I didn't have any problems finding my way and I appreciated crossing through green scenery sprinkled with multicoloured Zulu huts. 
The Kwazulu Natal is incidentally a great place to discover the Zulu culture. However, I didn't like the reconstructions of villages at all, they welcomed entire buses of tourists. I thought they resembled a "human zoo" where the people caricature their own traditions. If you wish to meet Zulus and learn a bit about their culture, it is enough, for example, for you to go to the terrace of a café to chat with the locals.

The Kwazulu Natal region is a mass of pastoral scenery and Zulu culture.

During my <a href="/south-africa/">trip to South Africa</a> I spent a lot of time in the amazing region of KwaZulu-Natal. The biggest selling point of this Zulu territory is it's incredible diversity - a perfect reflection of this 'Rainbow Nation'.
