A Jewel of Africa related blog speaks of ‘The Big 5’ – Africa’s royalty and rulers of the bushveld. Lion, leopard, rhino, buffalo and the mighty elephant – just to watch them is to experience something unique and special. Their habits, their quirky behaviour, their devotion to the herd or the pride …and the sad loneliness of the lone bulls or patriarch cats that have been expelled from the herd or pride – it is beautiful and savage, mysterious and as bold and ‘in your face’ as you could ever want any unique experience to be. Cape Town, with majestic world wonder ‘Table Mountain,’ sprawling cities and its magnificent ‘winelands’ …beautiful beaches that stretch further than the eye can see, and Cape point where the Pacific and Atlantic oceans collide in a swirling cauldron that sends massive waves dashing against sheer rock faces. What is not unique about this special place? All strike a chord; stir the emotions and work together to create this ‘unique and special’ experience.

Why South Africa Is A Preferred Travel Destination
International travellers are not starved for choice when it comes to travel destinations throughout the globe. The multi-billion dollar tourist industry is massive business and hundreds of countries beckon American, Asian and European tourists to their shores, extolling the virtues of their sights and vacation experiences. Research shows however that Southern Africa and particularly the Republic of South Africa is one of the fastest growing tourist industries in the world ….and why, when there is so much on offer globally, should this be the case? In this article we take a look at a few very good reasons why South Africa is a preferred travel destination… and promises to be even more so in 2018 and beyond… Its wildlife – and the Kruger National Park For a vacation that excites and gets the adrenaline running, without any extreme sports, the viewing of wildlife from an open four wheeler has no equal. The Kruger National Park has the largest diversity of large mammals of any reserve in the world and is the easiest place on earth to see “The Big 5”, predominantly due to the highest density of Rhino & Leopard populations in the world. Many of the Kruger Park’s private reserves, such as Timbavati & the Sabi Sand, virtually guarantee visitors will see all of the Big Five animals within a single day’s safari. Cape Town, Cape Point and Table Mountain Beautiful beaches, wonderful winelands and sublime scenery are all part of Cape Town and Cape point, at Africa’s southernmost tip. Cape Town, apart from its hustle and bustle, is breathtakingly beautiful, while the little town of Franschhoek has been designated as one the five prettiest towns in the world. Gently enfolded by Cape Town, is one of the New Seven Wonders of Nature; Table Mountain. The view from its flat peak after an exhilarating cable car ride, or challenging hike, is nothing short of spectacular! Numerous Tourist attractions There are a few obviously great tourist attractions like: The weather is great! With mild winters and sunny summers it’s the best place to be on most days of the year. The rand exchange rate – It’s really affordable, in American and European terms its one of the cheapest places in the World to visit. Great food and wine – Because it’s so cheap, travellers can experience some of the finest cuisine in the world at world class restaurants and (with a visit to some of the best wine country on the globe) some of the world’s finest wines, without breaking the bank! Its culture and great people – A world in one country, a rainbow nation…this is South Africa! It has many names and they are all true. There is almost no country that offers more diversity than South Africa. Its history as the ‘cradle of humankind’ and its colourful cultures offer wonderful tourist opportunities in many ‘off the beaten track’ parts of the country. The people are friendly and welcoming, knowing the value of its burgeoning tourist industry. Professional, personalised tour operators – Last, but certainly not least, international travellers can book with confidence, knowing they are receiving the best advice, personalised attention, safety and a luxurious travel experience when partnering with accredited expert African safari and guided tours operators like Jewel of Africa.

Five Great Reasons To Experience South Africa’s Breath Taking Panorama Route!
You stand at God’s Window and you feel it. Have you died and gone to Heaven? Could this be Heaven on Earth? A sight so spectacular it can’t be of this world – but it is…and it is just one of 5 great reasons to experience South Africa’s breath-taking Panorama Route! As a traveller to many destinations of the world, you might have heard that South Africa is a ‘world-in-one-country’ and this one day (which is part of a wonderful 5 day luxury safari package to South Africa’s famous Kruger National Park) will prove it. It is a scenic drive that encompasses some quaint and some spectacular stops, many of which you may never have heard of, but will never forget after this day. The Panorama Route, devised by the highly rated South African guided tour operator, Jewel of Africa, is situated along a beautiful winding road situated on top of the magnificent Drakensberg Mountains – the longest and largest mountain range in South Africa. Its highlights are: Reason One – God’s Window This magnificent viewpoint on the edge of the mountain range is difficult to describe. Photos cannot do it justice, as it is more to do with the feeling you experience just being there. Just a small part of a 250km long earthwork of sheer cliffs and extravagant beauty, it’s as though one can see forever! Reason Two – Berlin Waterfalls and the Lisbon Waterfalls The Berlin Falls cascade from the centre of a sheer cliff that stands roughly 80m tall. The shape of the falls is likened to a giant candle. The Lisbon Falls are the highest waterfalls in the Mpumalanga province. These Falls get their names from miners who ventured to South Africa from Europe during the gold rush, and named each waterfall in the region after places from their home countries. Reason Three – The Blyde River Canyon This is the third largest overall, but largest ‘all green’ canyon in the World! This is heaven for primate spotters as all five of South Africa’s main monkey species can be seen in the Blyde River Canyon Nature Reserve. It has some of the deepest precipitous cliffs of any canyon on the planet! Reason Four – Bourke’s Luck Potholes This is where the Blyde and Treur Rivers meet and have, through the years, caused extensive erosion, which formed a series of potholes in the sandstone bedrock. This has resulted in a fascinating network of tunnels and tubes, a fascinating place to visit and experience. Reason Five – Graskop The Panorama route tour ends with camaraderie and reflection on the day’s stupendous sightings with a visit to a gourmet pancake house, ‘Harries Pancakes’ and a wonder around the delightful little tourist town of Graskop. We hope this article has not only introduced you to 5 great reasons to experience South Africa’s breath-taking Panorama Route, but has stirred the adventurer in you to visit South Africa and indulge in one of our Luxury African Safaris.Contact us to find out more about our many packages and the professionalism, experience and flexibility that allows us to offer tailor made packages to suit every pocket and desire!
South Africa’s ‘Big Five’ Of Travel Destinations
Worldwide, the ‘Big 5’ wild animal species of Africa are well known. They include the towering Elephant, King of the jungle – the Lion, the elusive Leopard, the treacherous Buffalo and the gentle giant – the Rhino, sadly now an endangered species. But if there were a ‘Big 5’ of tourist destinations, what would they be? We believe they would be these five incredible South African tourist favourites, pretty much known throughout the globe as preferred destinations when travelling to Africa. So let’s take a look at South Africa’s ‘Big 5’ of travel destinations… Kruger National Park Cape Town – The ‘Mother City’ The Cape Winelands Whilst in this part of the World, a trip to the estates of some of the World’s finest wine producers is a must. It is included in the 4 day package already mentioned, but a 5 day guided tour that includes a trip to the renowned whale watchers town of Hermanus can also be enjoyed.
Half A Dozen ‘Must Sees’ When Visiting Cape Town
It is South Africa’s (and one of Africa’s) premier tourist destinations – a sprawling city that offers the best of everything in one place. From beaches to boat trips, a World wonder to wine tours, spectacular drives to sublime views and city life to culinary delights – this is a World in one. It is Cape Town, South Africa’s ‘Mother city’ …and one of the most sought after destinations on the Globe! Explore the ‘Must Sees’ in Cape Town. There is much to see and do, but we wanted to pinpoint a few absolute highlights to make sure your luxury guided tour includes them all. Fortunately experienced tour operators like Jewel of Africa have worked out a magnificent 4 day Cape Town tour that includes all these half a dozen ‘have to do’s when visiting Cape Town … Table Mountain – It is one of the ‘Wonders of the World’ and the focal point of Cape Town. The summit can be reached in 2 ways – the easy way, with a spectacular cable car lift – or the hard way, with a hike to the top. This is a taxing, but popular hike and either way the view from the top is breathtaking and encompasses the whole of Cape Town and much of the peninsula. A Houtbay Boat Cruise to Duiker Island – Houtbay is a beautiful fishing area where the wildlife of the sea and its shores abound. Embark on a 45-minute boat trip to Duiker Island and you can visit a huge Seal colony. You can get within almost touching distance of these thousands of ‘fun to watch’ creatures, feeding and playing in the stunning turquoise waters. Chapman’s Peak Drive – This is arguably the most scenic drive in the world! It is also one of the most exhilarating, as the road hugs the near-vertical face of Chapman’s Peak, from the areas of Houtbay to Noordhoek. Regarded as a major feet of engineering, the road at Chapman’s Peak was chiselled into the face of the mountain between 1915 and 1922. Cape Point – This same road leads to the Cape of Good Hope Nature Reserve and Cape Point, the southernmost tip of Africa. Here where two oceans meet, the stormy waters of the Atlantic are calmed by the Indian Ocean. We spend some time in the nature reserve and stand on this geographical landmark, Cape Point. On return to Cape Town a visit is made to Boulders Beach, an ideal vantage point to watch a local colony of African penguins. The Cape Winelands – The Cape peninsula offers some of the most spectacular wine farm viewing and visitations in the World. The tour begins in the quaint town of Franschhoek, where the French Huguenots brought their knowledge of viticulture and (upon receiving land from the Dutch East India Company) established their farms and began producing some of the world’s finest wines. On to Stellenbosch, the ‘City of Oaks’, which Simon van der Stel founded in 1679. The second oldest town in South Africa, it is home to some of the finest private and commercial wineries. A day of tasting, buying and taking in a ploughman’s lunch, is something to remember. The V&A Waterfront – Abuzz with trendy shops and a range of restaurants to suit every culinary preference, the V & A Waterfront, overlooking Cape Town harbour, is another must do. Here you can let your hair down and dance to the music at popular night spots – or just have a chilled lunch watching the ships come in, whilst the kids enjoy a whole range of popular activities. We hope these half a dozen ‘have to do’s when visiting Cape Town will make your Cape experience an unforgettable one. Remember we, as preferred Cape tour operators also arrange bespoke packages to suit every pocket and preference. We can extend the tour to take in Robben Island or even a trip to watch Whales between June and December. Contact us to find out more and to book today!
Eight Packing Essentials For A African Safaris
What should I pack for a luxury African safari? Note the emphasis in this frequently asked question is on the word luxury. This article is not designed as a survival guide for those wishing to really rough it in the African veld. No ‘billy cans’ or lightweight food packs will be on this list. As we’re in the luxury African safari business we thought it would be more helpful to our customers to know what to pack for this type of experience, so here are eight packing essentials for a luxury African safari…. Your packing items may be a bit easier to remember if you think of three main things to consider – the Sun, the Drive and the Camp. The Sun The Sun, when on an African safari is your friend and sometimes your greatest enemy. Warm sunny days are great for swimming and having fun between drives and most welcome to warm you up after a cold morning drive, but the African sun can be very hot and there are 3 essentials you will need to counter this: Sunscreen – and don’t mess about – a high factor block applied several times a day especially for fair skinned individuals is essential. Summer clothes – The warm days will require you to be clad in comfortable shorts, short sleeved open necked shirts and very importantly a full brimmed hat. Make it a comfortable one too. You’ll need it whenever you step outside. Swimming gear – Most of the luxurious lodges that we partner with have swimming pools and this is a welcome day time activity between game drives, so bring you favourite swimwear. The Drive Game drives are the highlight of the day and usually take place in early morning (and we mean early, usually around 5am) and evening. This is the time for climbing into the open 4×4 game drive vehicle and with the wind in your hair and your private guide recalling enthralling incidents and educating you on the local flora and fauna, your eyes are peeled for a first sighting of one of Africa’s magnificent specimen of wildlife. These will be your essential items on the drive: Warm clothing – contrary to the warm sunny days between the drives, the drives themselves in the open jeep can get very cold and call for warm clothing. Long pants and full sleeved shirts and pull-overs or preferably warm jackets. Maybe even a beanie for some Binoculars – Not all sightings are ‘up close and personal’ although you can get so close sometimes your hair will stand on end. Have a good pair of binoculars for rare long distance sightings. A camera with a zoom lens – If you want to go home with documented proof of your amazing sightings and great memories then take the right photographic equipment. The Camp It may be a tented camp or a 5 star lodge, but either way it’s that wonderful base where you spend lazy, hazy summer days between drives and eat delicious gourmet cuisine. It’s a slice of heaven and fitting for your luxury African safari experience. There are just 2 things we suggest you have here: Bug spray – as beautiful as it is – you’re still in the African bushveld. Make sure you have a good bug spray! A universal plug – To charge your camera and cell phone batteries between drives. We at Jewel of Africa Safaris hope this has been helpful to you and look forward to personally welcoming you to one of our luxury African safaris or tailor made sight-seeing package tours. Contact us to find out more and make sure you’ve brought along your eight packing essentials for a luxury African safari!
Travel In South Africa – Busting A Few Myths
Although this article is written, in part at least, with tongue firmly in cheek, there are actually some real fears that international travellers have about travel in South Africa and these have for the most part been born of urban legends or ‘Myths’ as we like to call them …and in some case just misinformation. In the interests of putting all our potential luxury safari tour travellers at ease, even before they are on our shores, we give you this hopefully useful look at travel in South Africa – and busting a few ‘nightmare’ myths Myth One – ‘There Are Wild Animals Roaming The Streets!’ Well, you might have caught us on this one, as there has been one case of a couple of Lions that escaped from the Johannesburg zoo, but believe us, this is nothing more than what has happened in any major city and the animals were quickly re-captured long before any harm could be done! The beautiful wildlife of this country are all securely, for their own safety, restricted to well kept national and private parks like Kruger park, where they can be viewed at Leisure by our luxury safari guests. Myth Two – ‘It’s Difficult To Exchange Money Or Use Credit Cards.’ Nothing could be further from the truth. South Africa has one of the most sophisticated banking systems in the World in fact. ATMs are on every street corner in the cities and money is transferrable at banks and hospitality areas in general. Your expert private travel guides can point you to all the available money exchange centres. Myth Three – ‘It’s Full Of Disease And Life Threatening Viruses’ South Africa is no more disease ridden than any other first world country. Home to the world’s first heart transplant, our medical facilities are excellent. You will not get Ebola in South Africa and even malaria only still occurs in very few areas. If you travel to an infected area you will be advised by your travel agent or luxury safari Tour Company to take the correct precautionary preventative medication. Myth Four – ‘You can’t Use Your Cell Phone Or Phone Home.’ South Africa, particularly in the cities has an intricate and sophisticated telecommunications system. Wi-Fi is freely available in most hotels and restaurants and even when on your private personalised safari, in a remote area, at least in the hospitality centres. Cell phone coverage is excellent and you can buy a sim-card at the airport and preload data and talk-time. This myth is usually of particular concern to teenage members of the family, but fear not, What’s app and all social media platforms are as prevalent in South Africa as anywhere else! Myth Five – ‘It’s Not Safe There – Crime Is So High!’ Sadly this is a concern in many cities and South Africa is no exception, but if you take reasonable precautions (as you need to do in any city in the world), you are as safe as anywhere else. In fact, out of the cities in the mainstream tourist destinations, particularly in the bushveld where you will be enjoying your luxury safari experience, your only fear will be your safety from the wildlife, which is unfounded as it is expertly handled by our private guides. We sincerely hope this has helped you to learn a little more about travel in South Africa – and has dispelled a few ‘nightmare’ myths so that you, like so many of our other superbly satisfied customers, will not hesitate to travel to South Africa to enjoy a life changing, fun filled, unforgettable luxury African safari vacation or guided tour. Get in touch with us to learn more about our extensive range of packages to suit every pocket and taste …oh and remember, if anything you have heard about travel to this beautiful rainbow nation is scary …it’s a myth!
