EXPERIENCE THE DIVERSITY OF EASTERN CAPE

The second largest of South Africa’s nine provinces, the diverse Eastern Cape landscape ranges from the dry desolate Great Karoo to the steamy forests of the Wild Coast and the Keiskamma Valley.

The Eastern Cape incorporates the previously independent `homelands’ of the Ciskei and Transkei. This is where the `big seven’ roam, and where the tropical forests share their space with abundant birdlife and nature at its most generous.
