South Africa Gap Year

When it comes to diversity, South Africa, stretching from the hippos in the Limpopo River to the penguins waddling on the Cape, takes some beating.

A Gap Year In South Africa will open your eyes to some of nature’s finest achievements and welcoming people.  There’s the deserted Kalahari, the iconic Table Mountain and Cape Point, Kruger National Park’s wildlife-stalked savannah and, running through the east of the country and into Lesotho, the Drakensberg.

Our placement is located close to the Kruger and is perfectly placed to backpack at weekends to see for yourself the greatness of South Africa.
