A bit of history<\/h2>\n\n\n\n\n\n

South Africa is well worth discovering for the beauty of its territory, but also for its<\/strong> heavy and complex history, which shaped the country and left indelible marks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The arrival of the first settlers in the 15th century would mark the beginning of several expeditions, wars, and conquests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The afrikaners<\/strong> designating white Africans of Dutch, French, German or Scandinavian origin, will occupy the Cape of Good Hope region and will gradually advocate their superiority over the blacks. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the course of time, a policy based on racial segregation will be put in place, including that of Apartheid in 1948<\/strong> which will be abolished only in June 1991 thanks in part to Nelson Mandela<\/strong>, who became in 1994 the <\/strong> first black President of South Africa.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Many have fallen in love with this country<\/strong> once they have come! This is also our case, and we hope this guide will help you better prepare your future trip or make you want to discover it. A multitude of activities and visits await you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Finally, at the end of the article, you will find suggested itineraries for 1, 2 or 3 weeks and more!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
