South Africa

11 Days, December 6, 2010. The Comprehensive Tour South Africa is becoming an increasingly desired destination by international travelers. It's a country of numerous diversities: scenic, cultural, and - of course - natural. "A World in One Country" is how the locals describe their home. Africans and Afrikaners, Christians, Muslims, Indians and Jews make up a mosaic that's crucial to understanding this newborn "Rainbow Nation."

Jews migrated to South Africa with the earliest white settlers from the Netherlands and Great Britain. The great influx of Jews to South Africa - mainly from Lithuania - began after the discovery of gold and diamonds. Together with an exploration of the wild plains and the rocky coastlines, the canyons and the waterfalls, the hunt for the "Big Five" (Lion, Leopard, Elephant, Rhino & Buffalo) our tour will also walk in the footsteps of South Africa's Jews as we trace their role in South Africa, before, during and after Apartheid.
