1. Always listen to guides, they will keep you safe.
2. The wine route is a must and its so beautiful.
3. A game reserve is also a must when visiting South Africa.
Kids will be safe🤣
4. Durban is beautiful.
5. The Kruger national park is most famous in South Africa.
6. Cape Town is the most famous destination in all of Africa
Thanks for your recommendations!
@@TheDemouchetsREACT also when visiting Cape Town you can also do the wine lands as its just outside of Cape Town
@@TheDemouchetsREACT You NEVER, EVER should run from a lion or other big cats in particular. It triggers their hunt instinct. You should never even turn your back on them. I saw this firsthand at a SA game reserve when a group of teenagers turned their back on a young “domesticated“ female lion. She immediately tried to jump on their backs.
South Africans are so supportive though, I can tell from your Content and your Subscriptions. This is really beautiful considering how expensive Data is in South Africa 🙏
Bathong why o bua ka data hle....I'm dead 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Durban has Africa’s largest aquarium @ ushaka marine world, warmer waters too
Joburg is a vibe though & just feels like home
Cape Town aka ‘ South Africa’s little europe’ has cold seas but anytime you look up it’s like a picture
Yes, it's beautiful.
Durban was beutiful until now that we have foreigners who are selling drugs in our country🙌🙌🙌
@@thobemcwango6914 some parts
Don't insult Cape Town like that just because it'works! AwE
We have Zoos in South Africa 🇿🇦. I'm quite conflicted though when it comes to visiting those though I understand their purpose. I am biased towards visiting the game reserves and national parks because those are more natural habitats for the animals.
I agree with u zoos are small and cramped game parks are big and spacious for the animals
We understand your perspective.
I am with you there. I went to the joburg zoo the other day and the animals look very uncomfortable and depressed shame. I felt very uncomfortable being there. Those animals are not taken care of
@@PrincessVelaryon The Elephant there left me very sad, for an animal that needs to be with a herd, being alone in that enclosure must be depressing. I dont know she has a friend now...
@@kgomotsotlhapane1161 Yes there are two elephants that I saw there when I went. But they look very sad in the small space for such large mammals
durban is very humid, when it rains its basically raining warm water, their beaches are nice too, warm ocean water compared to our water in cape town
When u watch videos like this and it's international people that love your country and would like to come visit
How can a person like me living in Cape Town looking at Table Mountain every day not feel blessed
🤭first comment🔥Hey Family♥️The proud South African Zulu girl🇿🇦🇿🇦Marking today's register✅✅
Present 🙋♀️
Hey family!
Mpumalang province such a beautiful region. I visited once when I was living in Pretoria. I went with some friends to a ame lodge it was amazing. I'd so love to explore much more of it and go see the Blyde River canyon.
An Ostrich will never run faster than a cheetah 😂😂you killed me bro😂💥
Oh but it does.
@@diva6407 not even close!!!
@@diva6407 a cheetah is the fastest animal on land IN THE WORLD. Yes, an ostrich is fast, but NOTHING compared to a cheetah. 🤣🤣🤣
The cape winelands are beautiful. So many varieties of wine cellars and tasting to do. Also award winning wine in some of these farms. Also the cheese farms are amazing too
Yes you can ride an ostrich. The people that worked there gave us a demonstration of how they ride them. We went to an ostrich park and the animals there tried to eat anything shiny including our watches and cameras. The teenage girls in our travel group all began to scream whenever that happened. It was hilarious.
The garden route is the best 👌 the two oceans are also worth a visit, so weird having your one foot in the warm side and the other is freezing cold in the other ocean 😀
Jut love your channel guys!
December is Definitely the best time to travel to South Africa as it is our Summer.
1. Cape Town is the most BEAUTIFUL City is our country and has the most to offer for traveling and new experiences.
2. Durban is very humid and not really much to do other than going to beaches and enjoying amazing food.
3. Game drives are very very safe, just listen to guides.
4. The low-veld is extremely beautiful with all the Canyons, mountains and rivers. Our national animal park is also there (The Kruger PARK)
Wifey is right, you would need at least 4 weeks to fully experience all of South Africa and travel.
Thanks for sharing this helpful information!
I’d say KZN is a good start. Durban has more to offer than just the beach, I promise. I love it here. People are friendly, weather’s perfect and the drakensberg isn’t too far from here. Then you can road trip to CT using the garden route!🥂
4 weeks is not enough. I went to Cape Town for a month and I didnt even get to see nor do everything
@@lusandandlovu4290yes yes start in Durban then to Cape Town to cool down hehe and yes yes Garden route is awesome.
You guys have to come to Cape Town, South Africa. Durban is nice but Cape Town is the best. Biggest tourist attraction
You guys need to experience a Zulu wedding when you come this side. It will blow your minds
South Africa, okavango delta in Botswana and Namibia - swakopmund, Etosha and Kavango.
And can yall please react to "December is not a month its a lifestyle in South Africa"
We'll check it out.
I say check out Namibia. That's still a dream of mine to visit
Y’all literally have me on the floor crying w this video.. Y’all know we don’t play w animals.. We are ghost.. The don’t move is what got me..😂😂😂😂
You don’t know what you’re missing though. As I said elsewhere here, going to a game reserve was one of the highlights of my entire life. You just have to pay very close attention to what the rangers tell you, and not stray off (even a little bit) from whatever group you are traveling with. They have guns and will keep you safe.
This is the real SA. You cant imagine the beauty.
If you still want to ride and ostrich, you can do it in Oudtshoorn, South Africa. They even have Ostrich races there.
Hermanus one of my favorite see side spots. Also you don't even have to go on a boat trip to spot the whales. There are awesome spots from land where you can see them playing in the bay from the shore. It's one of the worlds best land based whale watching spots.
Game reserve is a must! We also have what we call “walking with the lions” in South Africa, North-West province. It is such a beautiful experience!
So glad you guys did this video. And yes, you can ride an ostrich. My family went to the Oudshoorn in the Karoo where my dad got on one and they used my mom in her high heels to demonstrate just how strong the eggs are by letting her stand on them. It was pretty cool..the workers on the specific farm had ostrich races sitting on them like jockeys 😅
Thinking of riding an ostrich just doesn't sit right in my mind because I just know I'd be the one to fall off or I'll be hanging on by my leg.😂 That sounds like a cool experience!
@@TheDemouchetsREACT I once got on to one when I was a kid. It ran around with me very fast and I cried like hell😂😂😂. I kept calling out for my Mom left, right and center
😂😂 This is what I picture would happen to me.
@@Sir.Williams The same thing happened to me while riding a horse in Central Park that got away from it’s handler and proceeded to trot very quickly around the track with me on it. I was a kid then and I was terrified. 😂
The Cape Winelands are about 30 - 45 minutes drive from Cape Town.
Tourists usually start in Cape Town and work their way up through the Provinces to Johannesburg.
I would advise that you work your way up the Coastal regions [Cape Town, Port Elizabeth (now known as Gqeberha) and Durban] to Johannesburg and then explore the inland areas thereafter.
The Biggest Kruger National Park (Safari) is in Limpopo the northern part of the Country 🇿🇦, and there’s also the oldest AFRICAN Kingdom in the Southern Africa called Mapungubwe. For some reason these places are not included in videos like this.
We'll research this.
@@TheDemouchetsREACT Great 🫶🏾
The Kruger National Park is in Mpumalanga, and it borders Mozambique
@@wsalie2672 It’s within South African borders, the largest part being in Limpopo and then Mpumalanga. It’s not extended to Zimbabwe but ends by the boarders of Mozambique and Zimbabwe. Essentially it’s a SOUTH AFRICAN territory.
@@rudzanimunyai2090 Kruger National Park (South Africa 🇿🇦) forms part of the The Great Limpopo Transfrontier National Parks which incorporates National Parks in our neighboring countries of Mozambique 🇲🇿 and Zimbabwe 🇿🇼 (Limpopo National Park in Mozambique 🇲🇿, Kruger National Park in South Africa 🇿🇦, and Gonarezhou National Park in Zimbabwe 🇿🇼)
Best time to come to SA is December and Jan too cause January is more cheaper and exclusive cause everybody is back to work i personally prefer Jan, if is family trip.
Short notice for us this year.
Durban would probably be the best City for you to move to if you wanted to move to the Republic of South Africa. It's one of the most affordable major cities in the World. I think you will like Durban the most if you wanna live in the country and I get the feeling you like coastal living.
I agree look at MENSA MANE another Americn youtuber he moved to Cape Town early this year
Cape Town is awesome! I was a guide for a few years up until recently because of the Covid lock down but I've live in Cape Town all my life and it's great! You guys would love it out here
3:19 oohhh!!! Potholes! 😱 if I can recommend one place to go to, it's there. Never seen anything else like it. Especially after a lot of rain (like right now).
We also have a lot of caves to explore (most popular being the Cango cave in Oudtshoorn, which is also where you can see ostriches (and yes, my brother rode one 😂). The Western Cape is very lush and green, Cape Town has a lot of different activities to do. Most of our beach towns are gorgeous and offer a lot of stuff to do as well. You have the Cape Wine Route, Franschhoek (mini France), the Ceres and Sutherland area (which gets snow in winter, like right now).
George and Knysna is gorgeous as well. Sabie has a lot of waterfalls to explore and is more forested.
I have yet to explore the Northern provinces more, but I still want to see the Drakensberge and spend more time in Pretoria and Johannesburg.
OKAVANGO delta from Botswana🇧🇼 is my favorite 💯💯👏👏
My bucket list place. Only made ut as far as Gabs so far, does that count 🤣
12:29 😂😂😂😂😂😂 lol!! It's actually amazing to experience. We were lucky enough to get a cabin/house close to the Kruger National Park, where we got to see giraffes, monkeys and bucks closeby (the monkeys got in the house one morning and stole our food 😂).
When you drive through the park itself, keep your car doors closed and never leave the vehicle. For the most part the animals don't really care.
Sometimes you won't see any big cats (cheetahs and leopards are usually very difficult to spot). You'll mostly see birds, antelopes, buffaloes and zebras. Maybe giraffes and elephants. To increase your chances of seeing animals, take a guided tour or go to the watering holes - you're much more likely to see animals there.
To enjoy your African journey... start with West Africa then Kenya, Tanzania, Madagascar then finish up with South Africa
We'll add to our research. Thanks!
They should just come straight to SA. Remember all Africans are in SA. Nigerians, Kenyans, Tanzanians, Madagascar, Ghana are in SA. If you go to their countries you won't find anyone there. Don't waste your money going there, come straight to where everyone wants to be. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I'd love for yall to come to Durban when you come around it's really nice, and Durban is the beach though very much like the western cape so the beach covers a lot of the land in SA
in Durban the beach is the main attraction, Ushaka waterpark is right by the beach with an amazing aquarium. They have amazing hotels but for scenic views travel down Eastern Cape down to Cape Town. Lookup Knysna in Western Cape, stunning place to visit.
Duran water is darker, rougher but warmer. Cape Town is clear, white beaches, but freezing!! Durban is my home town and home of the Zulus. Umhlanga offers world class beaches, accommodation and restaurants. Cape Town is stunning!! But so different! If you can, do both. In between is the quaint Karoo and Garden Route down the coastal route. KZN has more game reserves. And if you can, inland of KZN is the Golden Gate and the Drakensburg (stunning mountains) Both very special.
in a town called Oudshoorn in the Karoo they farm with ostriches. on a tour of one farm they had some ostrich races. don't know if they still do. if you come, try and come outside of peak season. accommodation is usually cheaper and not as overcrowded as during peak or high season.
We'll keep this in mind. Thanks!
Thats my home town there is also Cango Caves you can go too and crocodile park also you can visit
There's also the option of game flights..seeing the big 5 via hot air balloon.
Please do consider visiting Botswana after SA 🤗
I'm not exactly sure which country in Africa it was, but I once saw an interesting video on Facebook. Apparently there's at least one Safari Park where the Lions climb in the vehicles with the visitors. They then start rubbing against the people like great big Pussy-cats. If you're a afraid of being chased by a dog, I'm not sure you'd want to go there Dion. Personally I'd love 😍 it, according to reliable sources Lions purr. I'd love to give one a good scratch and find out just how it's purr is. According to a friend of mine who used to work in a zoo you can hear a Lion's purr for quite some distance.
If you want to experience South Africa, go to the Blyde River Canyon, Addo elephant park and Cape Town, including the Cape Winelands. You do that, you would have travelled outside the USA. It's no point going to familiar territory like Durban...
You can always start in Cape Town and do like a road trip though South Africa and go to all the places that you want to.
There's also Sun City ❤ where the Gupta Brothers sleep when they come to the North West Province.
Kindly visit the Garden Route in the Southern Cape between Cape Town and Port Elizabeth.Breathtaking coastal views and the best beaches in S.A. I consider the area as the most beautiful part of our land....
The table cloth is a regular thing as we call the South Easter wind the Cape Doctor. If you see the table cloth it's a sign of strong wind coming but if there's no cloth then Cape Town becomes the best city to visit on a sunny day.
That vid did not do the garden route any justice 😩
Yes you can ride an ostrich lol. I would never do it though. In Oudtshoorn they have an ostrich farm. We visited as kids. They had some jockies that would do races with the ostriches. I think they obviously had to be light weights to Mount the birds
If theres a cloud on Table mountain theres normally wind in Cape Town and surroundings. And its normally very hot with wind. Which compliments each other.... If theres no Clouds over mountain that day in summer is normally very hot.... No wind. Fun Fact. Philip Cape Town. February month is hottest and windiest month. And winter starts in April when its raining and stormy. Durban is a nice Winter Location. Temp wise very mild and little rain.
Garden route is a must do and the Addo Elephant park at end of it. Natures valley a must and Knysna Plettenburg bAy and Jeffreys also on Garden route.... Kruger and Umfolosi parks got guided tours and very safe. But theres also alot of private parks with no carnivores like Sabisabi i
Fly in through johannesburg and visit the cradle of humankind. Fly down 2 Durban and go 2 the game reserve in Hluhluwe if u want 2 see all of the big 5 animals. If u were 2 go 2 the Kruger national park, u may not get 2 see all of the big 5 due to the park being so vast. Visit ushaka marine world in Durban 2 see sharks and other sea animals. Rent a car and drive down to Capetown via the Garden Route and just enjoy the landscape and the most scenic coastal towns. It's about 1000 miles drive but a drive of a lifetime
I think Joburg suits you most,but you should visit Cape town also and Durban as those a coastal areas
Hermanus is my favorite place on earth. My aunt lives there, I try to visit as often as I can.
There is s place in SA where the have Ostrich farms one called Safari and they have some of the workers on the farm to ride the birds for the tourist so good.
We do have Zoo also. But place's like Kruger national park animals are free. I also don't get close 🤣♥️♥️🇿🇦🇿🇦
You can ride an Ostrich in South Africa , at Ostrich Zoo's/farms
If you ever come to Cape Town try get to Llandudno beach. The water is cold but imo one of the best beaches we have , not as pack as the more popular ones like Camps bay , Clifton but far more scenic.
There are even more resorts ,in SA very exiting ,lots and lots of resorts🥰🥰🥰
Durban has a game reserve and lion park too
ok. blyde river canyon has a 70m free fall gorge jump, stunning and beautiful, also it has Gods window witch you can see the most stunning views. in cape town is table mountain , cape point and robin island where nelson Mandela were held prisoner for 27 years. in outshoorn is the cango caves very interesting and beautiful. Durban i will give a miss its more hyped up than it actually is. cape ughalas is the most southern point in Africa and a must see with pure white beach and a ship wreck. Kimberley has the biggest hand made hole in the southern hemisphere where diamonds were mined. So many more places that you could see and visit, none said in this video
by the way, we have ZOOS AS WELL, remember not everyone affords to travel far to see animals, so most of the schools especial lower grades, organize trips for the little ones to go see animals at the zoos
You can ride an ostrich. Went to the Cango Caves/Wilgewandel area when I was 14 and rode one. You hold on to the part of the wing that meets the body.
Not so fun fact: if you fall abd it kicks your head, you'll likely perish
Definitely start in Cape Town, I'm biased as I've lived here my whole life lol, then from cape Town you go all along the eastern coast (Garden Route) towards Durban, from Durban you go North, to the Kruger National Park, ending in Mpumalanga which is probably the most beautiful inland region.
Fun fact, we may not ride ostriches but while growing up we heard stories about witches who rode on apes/gorillas' backs as means of transport at night when doing witchy stuff 😂
😂😂 omg! We haven't heard of this before.
Nomkhosi in oudshoorn they do offer people to ride ostriches
@@georgyporgy7252 ooh nice! I had no idea.
@@ThatGirl37343 bra its a oudshoorn thing🤣 i don't trust those birds
Yes you can ride a Ostrich I have done this once I think it's in Oudshoorn or Knysna either of the two.
Much love from Durban💌🙏Y'all most def should come out here and peep the scene🙏
Much lovea
Good Day, if you looking to come to Cape Town. My mother is one of the best tour guides this side. Everyone always requests to have her as she always gives the best time and takes you all around to experiences our culture. So you can let me know when you guys are coming then we can organize for you!
south africa is good destination for staring travelling ;) love your reactions
We'rw glad you're enjoying yourself with us!
If you come to South Africa please come to Cape Town. Its literally the best.
Most of this video covers only the EASTERN CAPE, WESTERN CAPE, and KZN, which span the entire South African Coast. so just land in cape town and follow the coast up to DURBAN or land in Durban and follow the coast down to Cape town. That way you might visit most of these places in case you're struggling to choose.
Hi guys you have to go to kruger park its save you all i have been there plenty times its n special place sorry for my english spelling haha south africa holidays for you guys at least a month thx for react on South africa love your reactions
Love Kruger ❤️. Pilanesberg may be a better option though for a young family and proximity to Jhb.
THEIRS 2 SKI ⛷RESORTS IN SOUTH AFRICA THAT BLEW MY MIND!!
@9:50 I believe that is the Port control tower.
Durban is awesome. But come to the western cape for the vineyards and the drives around the peninsula.
y'all must come and see the lion park where you get to play with lion cubs
Y’all did a great choice picking Durban it’s similar to Dallas its a very American like city with different ethnic groups from SA and other countries in Africa, Indians too, Muslims from everywhere, Christians, Catholics etc, it’s similar to America
For a family friendly holiday i would suggest you book through "The real South Africa" they are a black american company in SA you can check their videos on they channel the The real South Africa.
It would be $22K USD for our family of 5 through their company.😳
@@TheDemouchetsREACT OMG that's a lot, no flights included?
No flights included.😩 It wouldn't be a problem if it was only us, but we aren't leaving our babies behind.
My sweet hunnies, you don't have to be afraid of the gamereserves. Not all safaris are open vehicle. You will be perfectly safe
We won't be scared in the moment.😅
@@TheDemouchetsREACT I grew up in Kruger Park. My parents (and me too, eventhally) worked there. It was a truly blessed life, a real privilege, to spend the best of my life in nature
Please don't sleep on North West, Sun City, Madikwe game reserve,touring a mine shaft in Bafokeng...
I'll second your shout out for the North West. Live in Jozi so it's been my close to home get away place. I may be the exception, but Cape Town does very little for me. Happy to visit and leave. 😊
I never road a hoorse but an ostrich at age 12 was amazing
I rode an ostrich who a school trip to Cape Town when I was 12🥹 so yes, you can definitely ride an ostrich 😍
Cape Town will be good for you guys and we also have a plenty of Zoos here in South Africa!
I stay in Durban, warm beaches. I will think start to visit Johannesburg then Cape Town then Durban these places are long distance from each other and has a lot to see you can't travel to it in a week or 2 you will need more time. Please when you come to South Africa 🇿🇦 make sure you go to the National Parks or Game reserves, the animals will blow your mind they are nothing like the videos you watch plus you will have a guide and in the safety of the safari truck so it safe. I've seen animals 4 times now and I love it I'm still going again. There is nothing like seeing Geralf, Elephants in person and more.
You have to visit a game reserve.. We don't normally go in those open game drive vehicles... Locals take their own cars... And you can close your windows.. Only rule us dont get out of your car - only at designated spots.
So you can get up close and personal, with glass between you. Lol
the "table cloth" over the mountain is formed when the devil and the Pirate named Van Hank are having their smoking competition.
When you go for a game drive it’s true you should never move around, stand around or make noise especially when u get close to the lions or any other big 5. I may be wrong but according to the the guide most of these animals don’t really see humans on the green game reserve cars.
This is not helping😂😂 We'll have to say hello to the big 5 from far far away.
Western cape is so Beautiful.
We also have Zoos and stuff like that. We have a lot in SA trust.
This Video only showed you 0.1 percent of places you need to visit in South Africa.
Come to the Green Canyon (Blyde River Canyon) I'm not far from there and you will discover more than 7 nature destinations that are very busy including God's Window.
Check Sun City in the North West 🇿🇦🇿🇦
They also offer self drive if you can't do a game drive and are afraid of lions getting in. That way your doors and windows are closed but the Lions are right there next to you. But they also offer sage game drives that's closed off
An animal you said you saw in the book is called KUDU and yeah you can ride a Ostrich
Thanks!
Hi there, could you please try the knysa pezula.
There is such a thing as ostrich racing, but it looks very uncomfortable.
I enjoyed this video, even though I missed your Drakensburg comments. For some reason the video just went mute.
I have been to the Bylde River Canyon, Kruger National Park, Hluhluwe uMfolozi, Durban (lived there), Drakensburg (hiking is not for me), Capetown and the Winelands.
U can ride ostriches! You can go yo Ushaka Marine world... it's so nice...
If u coming to jhb... We can have a nice braai or potjie kos.... I'm staying at the Walter sisulu Square.
I want to move there from America one day! God willing
Lions are Kings of the Savannah
Theres too many places to reccomended or tell you guys about, Best tourist route I would suggest would be The garden route eastern cape or I could suggest you land in Johannesburg, rent a vehicle and drive to Durban, spend a day there and stay at a hotel, drive to Port Elizabeth, Sleep over, drive to Mosselbay, Sleep over, drive to Cape town.
The trip between Johannesburg and Durban is extremely long, but I'm sure you'd be able to see allot of South Africa
You must come to Polokwane in Limpopo
The statue is actually a windmill
