South Africa's towns are diverse and enchanting travel destinations offering travelers a unique holiday experience. An exotic combination of landscapes, people, history and culture that will suit the tastes of just about anyone looking for an authentic African getaway.
South Africa is famed for her vast supply of precious metals but the real gems of the country can be found when you head on out to the quaint towns and villages that scatter the country's heartland.
The development of most of the towns and villages in South Africa is deeply rooted in their role as service centers for the surrounding agricultural environments. Towns like Pilgrims Rest, Upington, Sutherland and L’Agulhas, among others, began life as agricultural outposts and much of their frontier charm has been preserved.
The country’s ecological efforts supports a rich diversity of fauna and flora and it is the natural beauty of towns such as Knysna, Phalaborwa, Kimberley and Richards Bay that make them so popular among local and international travellers alike.
Scenic towns like Clarens, Groot Marico, Wellington and Stellenbosch have always been centres of creativity, places where artists and writers have found much to inspire them. These towns are known for their hospitality and you can join the locals at their regular hangouts for a beer and a chat to really get to know the town’s culture and its people.
For world-famous wildlife activities, breathtaking natural panoramas and a rich cultural heritage, South Africa's towns are great places to visit
