Let Scenic take you on an amazing journey of discovery as you travel to many incredible places in Africa that will stay in your heart forever.
Whether you explore South Africa and the Garden Route or choose a comprehensive highlights tour of Africa; including South Africa, Zambia, Kenya, Tanzania, Botswana and Namibia, you will be astounded by the rich diversity of this amazing continent.
Africa is known for its game parks and the incredible wildlife that inhabit these vast masses of land. Traveling in custom-built four-wheel-drive vehicles, you'll experience these magnificent surroundings for the best wildlife viewing in the world.
We are surrounded by a herd of elephants, they're just grazing here in the bushes, this is like a big beautiful buffet meal for them and what you’re seeing now, this is something that you could never do in a national park.
Get up close to the famed big five roaming freely in their natural habitat in Kruger, Thornybush, Chobe, Massai Mara, Amboseli, Samburu, Sweetwaters, Lake Nakuru, Etosha, Ngorongoro, and the Okavango Delta. You may even be lucky enough to see the wildebeest migrating across the rolling plains of the Massai Mara.
A holiday to Africa is about more than game parks. Africa's huge expanses invite you on a journey of discovery into tribal cultures and contrasting landscapes. You will come in contact with local villages, where you will experience the culture firsthand through the Scenic Enrich program; exclusive to Scenic.
These events and activities are designed to enhance your tour allowing you to live the destination rather than just travel through it.
In Amboseli learn about the traditional Maasai culture during your visit to a village in Lake Nakuru, you will visit an orphanage established by an Australian family striving to give disadvantaged children a better life.
South Africa's cultural experiences include a visit to the tribal homes of the fiercely independent Zulus, these and other unique interactions will increase your understanding and appreciation of the cultures & wildlife you encounter providing a new perspective on Africa.
During your journey you'll be surrounded by Africa's natural beauty. You will also discover cosmopolitan Cape Town, where you will take a cable car to the top of Table Mountain for outstanding views. Enjoy a day trip around the Cape Peninsula for views over the Cape of Good Hope and a close encounter with colonies of penguins.
You will also enjoy a guided tour along some of the world's most spectacular drives, Chapman's peak and the Garden and Panorama routes.
When you travel with Scenic, our exclusive Scenic Freechoice activities allow you to choose from a range of options at no extra cost.
Food tourism right around the world is absolutely booming and South Africa has risen to the challenge boots and al.l Now at the heart of it here are the wine lands and I promise you that not only sound great they taste even better.
Around Cape Town explore the beautiful Stellenbosch wine region, famous for its Dutch architecture or cruise to Robben Island where Nelson Mandela was
Imprisoned. Our holidays feature a hand-picked collection of Scenic special stays, which are outstanding hotels and lodges and at each one a very special experience awaits.
Lion Sands River Lodge is a perfect example of just one of the Scenic special stays, included in our tours of Africa located in a private concession in iconic Kruger National Park ensuring you exclusive access to this section of the park the unrestricted game viewing throughout the reserve will create memories to last a lifetime.
Look I just had to show you this because if I hadn't seen it I wouldn't have believed it. I’ve gone for a wander through the hotel grounds and look who's joined us, I don't know the behaviour of these animals outside of a zoo but they sure are pretty.
Now before you actually see the falls, you hear them, you feel them, this rumbling, churning water, the largest falling curtain of water in the world twice the size of Niagara.
For the ultimate luxury safari experience, take to the skies without ten-day East Africa by air experience where you will fly between luxury tented camps and safari lodges in East Africa.
In Botswana you can visit the water Wonderland of the Okavango Delta, staying in some of the most spectacular and secluded tented camps in all of Africa.
In Namibia you discover the red sand dunes of Sossusvlei, the beautiful and remote coastline of Swakopmund as well as the Magnificent Etosh National Park.
When most of us talk about journey's a lifetime an African safari is right up there.
I hope you’re ready to roar.

#SouthAfrica #CapeTownRestuarant #TravelVlog
Stellenbosch is a university town in South Africa's Western Cape province.
It's surrounded by the vineyards of the Cape Winelands and the mountainous nature reserves of Jonkershoek and Simonsberg.
The town's oak-shaded streets are lined with cafes, boutiques and art galleries.
Cape Dutch architecture gives a sense of South Africa's Dutch colonial history, as do the Village Museum's period houses and gardens.
Not to mention the great atmosphere and friendly people who are always smiling skating and traveling around this beautiful town with bicycles

Cape Town Peninsula tour, by African Eagle DayTours
When visiting Cape Town, embarking on a day tour of Cape Point and the Peninsula is a must do. The best way to do this tour is with a reputable tour operator. African Eagle Day Tours is one such company. Operating in Cape Town, they offer many day tours including wine tours and of course Cape Peninsula tours.
The cape peninsula tour is one of the most breathtaking day tours one can undertake when in Cape Town. The day tour starts in Cape Town city centre and the Cape Waterfront. From there one travels along the Atlantic seaboard taking in some of the magnificent cape beaches. This fully guided experience allows one not only to take in the scenic beauty, but be entertained by fascinating stories and interesting facts relating to Cape Town and its peninsula.
This is definitely one of the most popular day tours in the Cape and it's not difficult to understand why. Who does not want to visit the historically infamous Cape of Good Hope, or the mythical meeting point of the Atlantic and Indian oceans at the tip of Africa? Cape Point sometimes seems to be a meeting place for all the tour operators. Their busses fill the parking lot while their visitors are taking in the wonders offered by this wonderous place commonly known as the Cape of Good Hope Nature Reserve.
So when you are next planning your holiday tour to Cape Town, make a point of doing a day tour to Cape Point with a reputable tour operator such as African Eagle Day Tours.

Welcome to South Africa: The Beautiful Africa that CNN dont show on TV
#SouthAfrica#Africa#Nigeria
High-speed rail is a type of rail transport that operates significantly faster than traditional rail traffic, using an integrated system of specialized rolling stock and dedicated tracks
South Africa is a country on the southernmost tip of the African continent, marked by several distinct ecosystems. Inland safari destination Kruger National Park is populated by big game. The Western Cape offers beaches, lush winelands around Stellenbosch and Paarl, craggy cliffs at the Cape of Good Hope, forest and lagoons along the Garden Route, and the city of Cape Town, beneath flat-topped Table Mountain
South Africa contains some of the oldest archaeological and human-fossil sites in the world.[23][24][25] Archaeologists have recovered extensive fossil remains from a series of caves in Gauteng Province. The area, a UNESCO World Heritage site, has been branded the Cradle of Humankind. The sites include Sterkfontein, one of the richest sites for hominin fossils in the world. Other sites include Swartkrans, Gondolin Cave Kromdraai, Coopers Cave and Malapa. Raymond Dart identified the first hominin fossil discovered in Africa, the Taung Child (found near Taung) in 1924. Further hominin remains have come from the sites of Makapansgat in Limpopo Province, Cornelia and Florisbad in the Free State Province, Border Cave in KwaZulu-Natal Province, Klasies River Mouth in Eastern Cape Province and Pinnacle Point, Elandsfontein and Die Kelders Cave in Western Cape Province.
These finds suggest that various hominid species existed in South Africa from about three million years ago, starting with Australopithecus africanus.[26] There followed species including Australopithecus sediba, Homo ergaster, Homo erectus, Homo rhodesiensis, Homo helmei, Homo naledi and modern humans (Homo sapiens). Modern humans have inhabited Southern Africa for at least 170,000 years.
Portuguese contacts
At the time of European contact, the dominant ethnic group were Bantu-speaking peoples who had migrated from other parts of Africa about one thousand years before. The two major historic groups were the Xhosa and Zulu peoples.
In 1487, the Portuguese explorer Bartolomeu Dias led the first European voyage to land in southern Africa.[29] On 4 December, he landed at Walfisch Bay (now known as Walvis Bay in present-day Namibia). This was south of the furthest point reached in 1485 by his predecessor, the Portuguese navigator Diogo Cão (Cape Cross, north of the bay). Dias continued down the western coast of southern Africa. After 8 January 1488, prevented by storms from proceeding along the coast, he sailed out of sight of land and passed the southernmost point of Africa without seeing it. He reached as far up the eastern coast of Africa as, what he called, Rio do Infante, probably the present-day Groot River, in May 1488, but on his return he saw the Cape, which he first named Cabo das Tormentas (Cape of Storms). His King, John II, renamed the point Cabo da Boa Esperança, or Cape of Good Hope, as it led to the riches of the East Indies.[30] Dias' feat of navigation was later immortalised in Luís de Camões' Portuguese epic poem, The Lusiads (1572).
The South African National Defence Force (SANDF) was created in 1994,[126][127] as an all-volunteer military composed of the former South African Defence Force, the forces of the African nationalist groups (Umkhonto we Sizwe and Azanian People's Liberation Army), and the former Bantustan defence forces.[126] The SANDF is subdivided into four branches, the South African Army, the South African Air Force, the South African Navy, and the South African Military Health Service.[128] In recent years, the SANDF has become a major peacekeeping force in Africa,[129] and has been involved in operations in Lesotho, the DRC,[129] and Burundi,[129] amongst others. It has also served in multinational UN peacekeeping forces such as the UN Force Intervention Brigade for example.
South Africa is the only African country to have successfully developed nuclear weapons. It became the first country (followed by Ukraine) with nuclear capability to voluntarily renounce and dismantle its programme and in the process signed the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty in 1991.[130] South Africa undertook a nuclear weapons programme in the 1970s[130] According to former state president FW de Klerk, the decision to build a nuclear deterrent was taken as early as 1974 against a backdrop of a Soviet expansionist threat.[131] South Africa is alleged to have conducted a nuclear test over the Atlantic in 1979,[132] although this is officially denied. Former president, FW de Klerk, maintained that South Africa had never conducted a clandestine nuclear test.[131] Six nuclear devices were completed between 1980 and 1990, but all were dismantled before South Africa signed the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty in 1991

Cape Town, South Africa Travel Video
Cape Town, South Africa Travel Video - The Mother City, home to soaring Table Mountain, golden beaches and bountiful vineyards, is an old pro at capturing people’s hearts.
Natural Wonders
Table Mountain National Park defines the city. The flat-topped mountain is the headline act, but there are many other equally gorgeous natural landscapes within the park’s extensive boundaries. Cultivated areas, such as the historic Company’s Gardens, Kirstenbosch Botanical Gardens and Green Point Park, also make exploring the city a pleasure. Follow the lead of locals by taking full advantage of the abundant outdoor space. Learn to surf; go hiking or mountain biking; tandem paraglide off Lion’s Head; abseil off the top of Table Mountain – these are just a few of the many activities on offer.
Design Delights
The World Design Capital 2014 is in the process of using innovative design to transform the city. It’s already one good-looking metropolis, from the brightly painted facades of the Bo-Kaap and the bathing chalets of Muizenberg to the Afro-chic decor of its restaurants and bars, and the striking street art and innovation incubators of The Fringe and Woodstock. The shack communities of the Cape Flats are a sobering counterpoint, but even in these deprived suburbs there are enterprising projects that put food from organic market gardens on tables, or stock gift shops with attractive souvenirs.
Proudly Multicultural
Christian, Muslim, Jewish, Hindu and traditional African beliefs coexist in this proudly multicultural city. Given South Africa’s troubled history, such harmony has been hard won and remains fragile: practically everyone has a fascinating, sometimes heartbreaking story to tell. It’s a city of determined pioneers – from the Afrikaner descendants of the original Dutch colonists and the majority coloured community to the descendants of European Jewish immigrants and more recent Xhosa (isiXhosa) migrants from the Eastern Cape. They all bring unique flavours to Cape Town’s rich Creole melting pot.
Beyond the City
Wrenching yourself away from the magnetic mountain and all the delights of the Cape Peninsula is a challenge, but within an hour you can exchange urban landscapes for the charming towns, villages and bucolic estates of Winelands destinations such as Stellenbosch and Franschhoek. Hermanus is a prime whale-watching location and also a base from which to organise shark-cave diving. Further afield, the delights of the Garden Route unfold with more inspiring scenery to be viewed on thrilling drives down the coast and over mountain passes.

West Coast Flower Tour - Cape Town to Graafwater - Day One
On Friday, August 18, Ceres Rail Company departed Unity yard in Cape Town for their first annual West Coast Flower Tour. For two months every year, the South African west coast erupts with wild daisies an occurrence that attracts visitors from far and wide.
The train consisted of South African Class 19D, number 3322 with one X-17 auxiliary water tanker and seven restored coaches.
Day one saw the train travelling from Cape Town to Graafwater. Graafwater is a tiny town in the Sandveld situated 300 km North of Cape Town. Initially established by the railways as a servicing and goods facility the town later saw further development at the hands of the local Dutch Reformed Church. In recent decades the withdrawal of the railways and decline in the local economy has led to a serious decline in the region.
On Day two the train traveled from Graafwater to Klawer where the locomotive and coaches were turned on the wye in the Transnet Depot while passengers got transported by bus to see the flowers.
They returned to Graafwater later the same day. Day three saw the train returning to Cape Town with a water and fuel stop at Moorreesburg. I did not film day two, but returned on day three, picking up the chase on the outskirts of Eendekuil.
Ceres Rail Company can be contacted at or via their Facebook account.
