Join Lesley Robin on a new journey to South Africa & Swaziland. Our journey includes the important cities of Durban and Cape Town, but mainly focuses on the rural countryside. From the capital city Johannesburg travel to the Kruger National Park and home to the 'Big Five' ... elephant, rhino, buffalo, lion and the elusive leopard.
Continue overland into the highlands of the Royal Kingdom of Swaziland where we visit an organisation that works with 700 women from 13 different communities designing handmade products from grass, beads, pottery and natural dyes. On to Zululand and Durban, one of the busiest ports in Africa. Fly to Cape Town with breathtaking scenery of the Cape Peninsula.
Our visits include Table Mountain, Bo-Kaap and the Malay Quarter with its brightly painted 19th Century houses. Visit the Winelands and explore the historic villages of Stellenbosch, Paarl and Franschhoek. Throughout our travels visit markets and self- help projects focussing on crafts - handmade candles, embroidery, weaving, recycled glass.
Come discover the vibrancy and spirit of Swaziland and the New South Africa, a truly 'Rainbow Nation'.
