According to the 2014 census, there are approximately 54 million people inhabiting South Africa. Nicknamed “the rainbow country,” it has a majority black population, but there are many descendants of European settlers, Indians and Asians. This mix of customs, traditions and origins is part of the charm of this country.
South Africa has rooted traditions and cultures for many centuries. There are, for example, still many sangomas, who are healers, and stores selling witchcraft products in all regions, especially in KwaZulu-Natal. Natural medicine and plants are still used.
Traditional South African dishes are boerswors, sausages and the sandwich called “Bunny Chow”, which are specialties sold on the street. There is also mieliemeal, which is a corn mush and ginger cakes. You can also enjoy sosatie, spicy kebabs, or biltong, dried meat. In South Africa, the Sunday barbecue barbecue is an institution.

When you get out of there, head for Constitution Hill. What was once a prison where Nelson Mandela himself was imprisoned is now the seat of the Constitutional Court, a place that is well worth seeing both for its history and its architecture. Then continue your visit to the Soweto area.
Although it is a pleasure to travel around South Africa on your own, to explore Johannesburg we recommend that you do it with a local guide. It is the safest way to do it and it will help you a lot to understand all the history and recent events in the country.
Although we put it at the third point on the list of the must-see places in South Africa, we suggest you leave the Kruger National Park for the end of your trip. Because after Kruger there is nothing. There are so many emotions and experiences that you can live in this national park that, honestly, it will be difficult to beat it afterwards.
Unlike the vast majority of African reserves, in the Kurger you can go on Safari on your own with your rental car. This national park has different camps scattered throughout its extension that will serve as a base to explore it.
