Welcome to South Africa
We first traveled to South Africa as the final stop on our 2016 African safari and visited Johannesburg before flying home. It was a great last stop on a wonderful trip. The second time was in January of 2024 with a cruise along the coast of S. Africa from Mauritius. Great Cruise
