A visit to the famous <strong>Kruger<\/strong> safari park with the Big Five should not be missing from your trip. In <strong>Swaziland,<\/strong> you&#8217;ll stay in traditional rondavavels and, under the direction of the chief, visit a local village. A boat trip on the lake at <strong>St. Lucia<\/strong> offers you the chance to see hippos and countless bird species.<\/p>\n<h2>From Zululand to Lesotho<\/h2>\n<p>Next, visit <strong>Zululand<\/strong> where you will stay at the Isibindi Zululodge. The lodge is run by residents of nearby Zulu village. You will be introduced to the history, traditions and lifestyle of the Zulu tribe. You will then travel to the impressive <strong>Drakensbergen<\/strong> where you can walk, ride or enjoy the beautiful views from your lodge. Your next destination is <strong>Lesotho.<\/strong> The infrastructure here is limited and the inhabitants (the Bantu) mainly move on foot or by horse. With a stop over in Graaff Reinet you will travel to Oudtshoorn, known for its many ostrich farms. At <strong>Stellenbosch<\/strong> you will find the traditional old Dutch architecture and of course the many wine farms. You end the trip in the bustling port city of <strong>Cape Town.<\/strong><\/p>\n<h4>Tips and tops Cultural journey Nature and peoples South Africa:<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>Explore Soweto by bike led by a local guide<\/li>\n<li>Spot the Big Five in kruger park<\/li>\n<li>Ask about the possibilities for a walking safari<\/li>\n<li>Visit from St. Lucia the national park Hluhluwe \u2013 Umfolozi<\/li>\n<li>Follow one of the beautiful hiking trails in the Drakensbergen<\/li>\n<li>Explore the beautiful landscape of Lesotho together with the Bantu on horseback<\/li>\n<li>Enjoy a wine tasting near Stellenbosch<\/li>\n<li>Take a day trip to the Cape of Good Hope from Cape Town<\/li>\n<li>Recommended accommodations: Ngala tented camp &#8211; Kruger, Singita Lebombo &#8211; Kruger, African Rock hotel &#8211; Johannesburg, Babylons Tower &#8211; Franschhoek<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Cultural trip &#8211; tour by rental car where you get to know the different peoples in South Africa interspersed with stay in the most beautiful nature parks.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":303,"featured_media":124197,"menu_order":0,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"inspiration_categories":[],"country":[207],"continent_category":[186],"class_list":["post-90423","inspiratie_reizen","type-inspiratie_reizen","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","country-south-africa","continent_category-africa"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/staging.untamedtravelling.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/inspiratie_reizen\/90423","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/staging.untamedtravelling.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/inspiratie_reizen"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/staging.untamedtravelling.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/inspiratie_reizen"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/staging.untamedtravelling.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/303"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/staging.untamedtravelling.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/inspiratie_reizen\/90423\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":238604,"href":"https:\/\/staging.untamedtravelling.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/inspiratie_reizen\/90423\/revisions\/238604"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/staging.untamedtravelling.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/124197"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/staging.untamedtravelling.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=90423"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"inspiration_categories","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/staging.untamedtravelling.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/inspiration_categories?post=90423"},{"taxonomy":"country","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/staging.untamedtravelling.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/country?post=90423"},{"taxonomy":"continent_category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/staging.untamedtravelling.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/continent_category?post=90423"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
