Adventure Luxury Travel Ideas

Before traveling anywhere, a good rule of thumb is to research what there is to see and do. Here are some ideas in case you decide to travel South Africa:

• Kruger National Park: a top safari destination, where you can go on game drives and walk freely around the park, which is home to 147 different species, including lion prides and elephant herds.
• Cape Town: The second-largest city in South Africa has been rated the best travel destination in South Africa, and one of the best in the world. There are many sights to see, including Table Mountain, and the penguin colony at Boulders Beach.
• Garden Route: A tapestry of large trees, freshwater lakes and deep gorges, stretched along Africa’s coast. This gorgeous strip of Africa’s beauty is a must-see, and is home to animals such as dolphins and whales, and some of Africa’s best beaches.

In Africa Travel, how many couples think South Africa? I find more and more couples are looking for adventure with their beach resort or mountain retreats. Many of those couples, especially scuba divers, are looking at South Africa. Why? because they can combine the adrenaline rush adventure of Great White Shark Cage Diving with the romance of a true African Safari. You can throw in a romantic trip to the top of Table Mountain at Cape Town with a private champagne and cheese picnic basket or a wine tasting tour of the South African Western Cape. For a true Africa travel honeymoon or romance vacation, end it with a trip to Victoria Falls in Zimbabwe or Zambia. Think you are just romantically viewing the falls? Think again, for you adrenaline junkies there is river rafting, helicopter rides, and white water kayaking. Want a little softer adventure? Try a half day elephant back safari! Add to this the romantic sunset cruise at the Falls and you have a perfect ending.
