For many people, now is the time to vacation. Why not look into a trip to the stunningly beautiful South African destination of Mpumalanga? When you witness your first Mpumalanga sunrise, you’ll see why it is called “land of the rising sun.” Visions of natural beauty of this caliber are not easily forgotten.

The South African province of Mpumalanga is a geographically fascinating and diverse destination for nature lovers, hiking fanatics, historians, amateur geologists, athletes and outdoor lovers of every kind.

Here, you can fish at your leisure, or visit one of the dozens of sanctuaries; this is Big Game Country, after all, and tourists visit Kruger National Park regularly to see The Big 5. Bird watchers will enjoy the sights in all regions of Mpumalanga, and spelunkers can visit the Sudwala Caves which, at 240 million years old, are the oldest caves in the world. River rafting and mountain biking are unforgettable, very popular, one of a kind and breathtaking adventures here.

For the adventurer with refined tastes, it is worth noting that a Haute Cuisine route widely known as the Lowveld Gourmet Route is well established here, and has been enjoyed by world class travelers since 2008.

Couple these fine gourmet meals with the experience of indulging in any number of Mpumalanga’s resplendent, exclusive and very private African Euro lodges or luxury chalets, and you will find yourself completely immersed in a South African vacation experience unlike any other. And to complete the experience, travelers might choose to visit Sandton City, a splendid South African international shopping experience.

Whether a visitor’s interests lie in Italian fashions or African art, Sandton City shoppers will find themselves delighted to browse brand name items or dine in the high class restaurants. And finally, Mpumalanga offers a number of golf courses if the traveler is so inclined.

No trip to South Africa would be complete without a safari. As previously mentioned, this is Big Five country- don’t miss it! Photographers will be thrilled to participate in an open air 4×4 safari or a guided hike in the bush.
