| DISCOVER THE
SCENIC SPLENDOURS EN ROUTE BETWEEN CAPE TOWN AND PRETORIA
|
For many visitors to South Africa, there's
no finer way to see the country than on the popular weekly journeys between Pretoria
and Cape Town. One of the world's top destinations, Cape Town offers a blend of
cosmopolitan city life, mountain splendour and scenic winelands. The twin cities
of Pretoria and Johannesburg in Gauteng form South Africa's economic heartland
and the ideal departure point for the Lowveld's world-famous game reserves. From
the coast, the 1 600 kilometre route follows an old pioneering trail carved
out of the African bushveld, passing through the winelands and climbing up to
the interior through the Hex River Valley. Highlights of the north and southbound
routes include visits to the historic village of Matjiesfontein, a 100-year-old
refreshment stop in the arid Karoo, and Kimberley (city of De Beers), the diamond
boom-town that's home to the Big Hole, the world's largest man-made excavation.
