Summer/Autumn
2017/2018
It’s hard to believe, but here we are, already at the end of
the year going into a new one. For us, and we trust for you
too, it has been a wonderful year as we endeavoured to
bring you the best in travel experiences with, in the first
place, a focus on local South African travel, but also looking
beyond our borders at all that this magnificent continent
has to offer.
Editor'S Note
overview of the many festivals and carnivals taking place
here in the summer months. But please remember our
drought, and try and save as much water as possible. We
have provided an update with some water-saving tips in
this edition. Furthermore, with golf tourism being one of the
fastest-growing tourism sectors globally, and with South
Africa being a favourite destination for golf fanatics from
around the world, we chase that little white ball down our
many fabulous fairways. May you land that hole in one this
summer!
It being summer and the holiday period, the focus of
this edition is very much on summer fun and outdoors
experiences, such as the adventures that can be enjoyed
on the Orange River (Gariep), our longest and most iconic
river. There’s a whole world of adventure out there just
waiting for you!
We also take our readers on a journey into “the Muslim
Experience” in South Africa. We have a very large Muslim
community with a culture, heritage and history that goes
back almost 360 years. For Muslims and non-Muslims
alike, there is so much to explore within and around this
community. In addition, the number of Muslims from
other countries travelling to South Africa to share in this
experience is growing with leaps and bounds.
For the many people descending on Cape Town and the
Western Cape over this period, we have provided an
The wonderful world of independent and second-hand
bookstores – often found at the most unexpected places in
cities and the smallest of country towns – is also explored.
And we bring you fresh insights into the Free State, the
golden heart of South Africa, as well as neighbouring
Botswana with its many breath-taking attractions. As
always, we also have our regular sections, Hidden Gems
and TravelBites.
With this edition we will also be going to the World Travel
Market Africa in Cape Town, Africa’s Travel Indaba in
Durban, and Meetings Africa in Johannesburg. We hope
to see all our old friends there and make many new ones.
If you are on the road during the holiday period, please
take care and reach your destination safely. I wish all our
readers and advertisers a wonderful festive season and a
Stef
prosperous 2018. See you again next year!
