Cape West Coast

South Africa’s mother city at Africa’s southern tip is a place of unions. Two of the world’s great oceans surge together off its shores. Primal weather systems swirl northwards, bringing the climatic conditions for the globally unique Cape Floral Kingdom, one of six worldwide floral kingdoms. More than that, Cape Town is a confluence of cultures, with a thriving economy and a vibrant, diverse society. If you’re in the mood for sipping world-class wine and enjoying fine dining as the sun sets over the ocean, revelling in the natural splendour of Table Mountain and Cape Point, enjoying a round of golf on one of the many championship city courses, partying with the beautiful people or maxing out your credit card with retail therapy, Cape Town is your destination.

The Northern Cape

Big on hospitality, short on traffic jams, rich with tales of diamond smugglers, shipwrecks and vast sunbleached landscapes which erupt into colour each spring – these are the ingredients of the Namaqualand and Bushmanland regions of the Northern Cape. Many visitors seeking the flowers in Spring find they’re entranced too by the long open roads, clean air and crystalline night skies and by the excitement and adventure of mountain biking, hiking, canoeing, diving, rock climbing and safaris in one of Africa’s premier wildlife reserves.

Southern Namibia

There’s a primordial splendour about the Namibian landscape that speaks to every human’s need to enjoy solitude and serenity. A soulful and spiritual place of immense spaces merging into distant horizons, a place where the jaded city dweller can unwind and relax. It’s a place for photographers, artists and poets to draw inspiration, for lovers to discover - or rediscover - each other and for nature to regain its rightful place at the centre of the landscape. It’s a place of otherworldly scenes, colonial-era houses being swallowed up by the shifting sand, vast sand dunes above the aquamarine waters of the Atlantic Ocean, a place where the tensions of the city give way to a pervading peace.
