The Winelands, less than an hour from Cape Town and only a 10 minutes drive from the WORLDSVIEW RESIDENCE, give full reign to the pleasures of eating, drinking and visual feasting. Dutch colonial heritage reaches it peak in this region of gabled homesteads sitting among vineyards against a backdrop of slaty peaks.

Mpumalanga is the largest area for viewing the big five with the world-famous Kruger National Park, one of the oldest parks in South Africa, stretching virtually the length of South Africa's eastern border with Mozambique.
The Western Cape's numerous Nature Reserves offer unique fynbos, birdlife and generally only the smaller mammals... however in 1999 the big five were reintroduced to the Garden Route and, in small family groups, can be seen.
