South Africa
South Africa is one of Christian’s all-time favourites – for him, it’s a world in itself: from the Karoo savannah and the snow-capped Drakensberg plateau in winter to the shores of the ocean. A land full of contrasts and natural beauty, South Africa offers a richness of experience that Christian wholeheartedly recommends for an unforgettable journey.
This fascinating country reveals all its richness through a breathtaking variety of landscapes. Discover the Karoo with its vast savannahs, cross the majestic high plateaus of the Drakensberg – sometimes sprinkled with snow in winter – and then let the ocean spray wash over you. Stark contrasts, impressive wildlife, a vibrant culture: South Africa promises you an unforgettable journey between magnificent nature and strong emotions.
The Must-sees of the trip
- The Kruger National ParkDiscover the Big Five in an area 5 times the size of Luxembourg or 2/3 of Belgium.
- The Cape Town wine regionPamper your palate with some of the best wines in the world in the great Stellenbosch/Paarl/Franschhoek region.
- Penguins and whalesVisit Boulders Beach in Simon’s Town, south of Cape Town, to watch the little penguins that are living on this beautiful beach and marvel at the spectacle of the humpback whales between June and January.

A breathtaking palace

The Palace of the Lost City
Sun City, Rustenburg
A building that looks like the palace of an African king and simply leaves you speechless. The Sun Hotels Group also operates the Atlantis Dubai and Paradise Island (Bahamas). Many world stars have performed or stayed here.
November – Flowering of the Jacaranda trees
Discover the capital Pretoria in particular, which is “dressed” entirely in purple when the jacaranda blossom reaches its peak.

The Kingdom of Lesotho
During cherry season in December/January, take a trip to this exotic enclave above the small town of Ficksburg to sample the delicious cherry liqueur.

Cage-diving with sharks
Gaansbai is the hotspot for cage diving with the great predator, the great white shark. Thrills guaranteed.
