Cape Town has a way of overcoming your senses, creeping into your heart. I was here for a week in November. The weather was perfect, the accommodation fabulous, the scenery breathtaking.

How lucky we are in South Africa to have Kruger National Park – one of the world’s most sought-after destinations – on our doorstep.

I’ve just spent six glorious (and very hot) nights in this lovely Indian Ocean country. It’s a poor country, but its tourism industry is growing all the time with accommodation ranging from tiny desert island lodges, sumptuous colonial hotels and 5-star resorts, to friendly backpackers’ and B&Bs, as well as lots of self-catering accommodation.
