Explore a country known for its diverse wildlife and breathtaking landscapes. Learn why the nation is a cultural melting pot with 11 official languages. Tempt your tastebuds as you try unique foods at a centuries-old garden. Then dig into service at a local school garden and play sports with the children. Take in the scenery. Watch penguins roam at the beach. Snorkel off the coast, and hike breathtaking Table Mountain. Get your adrenaline pumping while ziplining across a deep valley. Add on a safari to search for lions and African elephants. This program has it all – service, culture, adventure and wildlife.

We saw incredible animals, indescribably beautiful landscapes, and met people with the most wonderful stories to tell.
