South Africa can be tasted in large tin pots that belong to Soweto mamas, or in bottles and barrels from the Western Cape wine farms.
South Africa smells great, from the wilderness of Kruger National Park to the sea breeze at Cape of Good Hope. Intakt reisen trips will allow you to discover the most important, as well as the least known, cultural and scenic highlights in the region. Intakt reisen places great emphasis on giving you as much personal access as possible to people in holiday countries to allow you to understand the daily and cultural conditions.
South Africa can be heard in the life-affirming sounds made by street musicians and the calls of the hyenas as the day ends in the game reserve.
South Africa is also visible and you can admire it. When the clouds descend Table Mountain like icing, they do so in slow motion, so that you don’t miss anything. Or when the Drakensberg grass looks so green and juicy that it almost hurts you ideas.
