Best Cities For a Vacation in South Africa
There is no shortage of cities to visit in South Africa. There are lively metropolitan cities like Johannesburg and Cape Town as well as smaller historical towns like Bloemfontein and Port Elizabeth that offer a completely different experience. There are also leisurely safaris in Kruger National Park, bungee jumping adventures in Pretoria and Jo'burg's popular hop on hop off bus tour.
Johannesburg: The Johannesburg travel guide is a landmark in the city. The architecture of the building is the perfect blend of European and African styles with a red brick exterior. The distinctive clock tower is a major landmark for residents and visitors to the city centre.
The famous Gold Reef City theme park situated here offers visitors an opportunity to experience what life was like during the gold mining era, meet animals from all over Southern Africa, and experience many other unique attractions such as a 18H00 daily sound and light show.
Cape Town: Cape Town has many natural attractions, including the Lion’s Head and Table Mountain. The city offers a wide variety of restaurants and other food options, such as seafood dishes.

Bloemfontein has a subtropical highland climate (Köppen: Cwb). Summers are hot with average temperatures hovering around 30 °C. Winters are usually mild and frosty with average temperatures generally not going below 10 °C. Snowfall can be seen in winter nights and mornings.
