  This is a guide for the first-time visitor with limited time, who wants to experience the best that South Africa has to offer. The guide recommends the sights worth seeing and places of interest to visit, and advises on where to stay, eat and shop, excursions to take, and the best way to travel around. A short introduction profiles South Africa's history - including the May 1994 presidential election - people, places and wildlife, government and economy. This is followed by descriptions of what to see and do in the popular tourist regions - Cape Town and Winelands, Garden Route, Transvaal Escarpment and Kruger National Park, Durban, Natal and Zululand, Drakensburg, Sun City and the Witwatersrand. The text contains travel tips, useful information panels and colour photographs, maps and climate charts which will enable visitors to make the most of the time available.
