Enjoy the country that successfully hosted Rugby and Cricket World Cups and is hosting the 2010 Soccer World Cup!

Use what you save to discover the country the world loves and that Nelson Mandela made famous.


Durban, playground of South Africa and gateway to the Zulu Kingdom is located on South Africa's subtropical east coast. Summer is almost year-round, with average maximums of 35°C in February and 18°C in July.
Mid-summer is humid while winter is short and not very humid with warm days and cool evenings. Durban starts shivering and the locals bring out the winter woollies when the mercury plummets to 15°C! All you really need is a jersey and windbreaker for the coolest days.
The miles of golden beaches, bars, clubs and pavement cafés make this a great tourism destination. It's the gateway to the province of KwaZulu-Natal, also known as the Kingdom of the Zulu, and has two world heritage sites - the Greater St Lucia Wetland Park and the uKhahlamba Drakensberg Park - plus game reserves with the big five, all less than three hours by car from Durban.

The game parks cater for every budget from backpackers and self catering to world class luxury (some of South Africa's game lodges have been acclaimed as among the best hotels in the world). The coast line abounds with holiday resorts and luxury hotels line beaches with some of the best surfing, scuba (with sharks), kiteboarding and fishing sites in the world.

Two hours inland the mighty Drakensberg (Dragons' Mountains) rise 3000m. Here one can walk or do horseback trails, fly fish, camp and rock climb without seeing another person. This world heritage site is also home to a vast proliferation of Bushman rock art dating back thousands of years.

In most respects South Africa and Durban is first world. It has some of the best medical facilities, a free press, state of the art telecommunication, giant shopping malls and one of the world's healthiest economies.

All in all it's a paradise in which to train and holiday.
