„There is something about safari life that makes you forget all your sorrows and feel as if you had drunk half a bottle of champagne — bubbling over with heartfelt gratitude for being alive.“

- Karen Blixen

Moreover, a friend of mine and a blogger Anastasia Frost from Cape Town has contributed to the guide and spotlighted her under-the-radar safari gems in Western Cape for those who only plan to visit the Cape Town region and yet want to get a taste of true African safari.

I went on my first African Safari in 2018 and it changed my life forever. I truly believe every traveller should experience this miracle as it will change your approach to conservation, open your eyes to wildlife encounters, and will teach you so much about nature, animals, and the processes in the natural world, its patterns which we sometimes fail to notice in the human’s society.

Ever since I have visited South Africa 5 times - each time for over 4-5 weeks, have driven more than 4 000 km across the country and worked with more than 25 different safari lodges as a photographer and travel writer. One of my stories was published in National Geographic Magazine. I have done walking safaris, horse safaris, and classic safaris where I have witnessed incredible scenes of wildlife which you normally only imagine in BBC documentaries. In this guide, I have shared the information that will help travellers to plan their first safari in South Africa and be left speechless. From the most luxurious lodges to budget rest camps, everyone can plan a safari according to their budget. Apart from that, this part includes tips and insights on activities and places in Drakensberg Mountains, the Free State, Panorama Route, and some less travelled areas like Isimangaliso Wetland Park and the Wild Coast. Exploring these gems definitely gives a new perspective on South Africa and reveals its mind-blowing nature and diverse landscape.
