DVD: South Africa
South Africa is said to be one of the most beautiful countries in the world. Its ever-changing and breathtaking scenery takes you from the awe inspiring Drakensberg Mountains to the grasslands of Kruger National Park and of course the fantastic beaches. The dark cloud of apartheid held back tourism for understandable reason, but since its breakdown in 1994, travelers have returned to experience the magic of this remarkable land.
Travellers Sami Sabiti and Justine Shapiro return to South Africa to see how much the rainbow nation has changed in the decade since apartheid. Starting in the beautiful Cape Town they then travel to Robben Island to see where Nelson Mandela was imprisoned. After a stop in Kimberley, it's on to the tribal lands of Lompopo for Sami whilst Justine heads east to Afrikaner Oudtshoorn and on to Durban, before meeting the wildlife of Kruger National Park. They end their journey in Johannesburg.
