Home to the second highest waterfall in the world and the third largest canyon in existence, South Africa gives you the opportunity not only to be surrounded by unique and exotic beauty, but it gives you the chance to actually notice this beauty.

The country is the largest producer of macadamia nuts and owner of the most luxurious train in the world (Rovos Rail), this country is an absolute hot spot for kids who want to meet the animals through safaris, students looking for a way to escape the nuances of the modern day life, and parents who need to recharge.

The natives seem to have a keen sense of humor, for they place signs similar to this one on hand dryers in the public bathrooms: "Risk of electric shock – Do not activate with wet hands." So dry your hands before using the automatic hand dryers! Or spot this sign at the local shop in Johannesburg: "Why go elsewhere to be cheated when you can come here?" Good point!

So stop wasting your time with those "realistic videos of the wildlife in South Africa" and get yourself down here with the help of TravelPapa, where it is simple to book cheap flights to South Africa. So easy, a caveman could do it.
