This book is an interactive travel journal and memento of South Africa with text that is designed to give an instant overview of a region and encourage research. Based on the classic itinerary from Cape Town to Johannesburg to the Northern Cape (with forays into Mozambique and Swaziland). It can be used by travellers on their own or on escorted tours, learners and educators in the travel industry, agents assisting would be travellers and anyone who wants a concise explanation of a unique and beautiful region. The author, a tour director in Southern Africa for over two decades, has based the content on the expressed interests and needs of the thousands of curious travellers with whom he has worked. Different than other guides, part memory/book/scrapbook and part narrative, this is the commentary every passionate traveler wants: written as if in his or her own voice, filled with pictures and maps, with room for postcards and personal notes.
