Intrepid explorer Elissa visited South Africa recently and loved it.
Here she tells us about the animals you can spot in the wild. She also gives us a few safety tips as well!
p.s. We’re having a few hiccups. If it’s hard to view the subtitles, click here to watch it on our youtube page.
Even though the World Cup is now over, there are definitely still reasons to visit South Africa!

I wanted to give a shout out to Umkumbe Game Lodge where I stayed for 10 days. It is one of several safari lodges within Sabi Sands (a 65 hectare private game reserve connected to Kruger Park with no fencing between the two). You couldn’t ask for better (or funnier) hosts than Herman and Celeste!
In addition, binoculars and a camera with a decent zoom are a must in Africa for checking out their spectacular wildlife. One bird, the Lilac-breasted roller, looks like it came out of a colouring book!
