Product Description

Product Description
Now in its 4th edition this Rough Guide has been fully updated and revised. Its 16-page full-colour section introduces the author's highlights, from the mysterious Drakensberg mountains to the winelands of the western cape, to whale watching on the southern Cape Coast and pony trekking in Lesotho. A 16pp full-colour field guide provides a quick reference for identifying wildlife in the region. Throughout, there are discerning reviews of all the best places to stay, eat and drink - to suit any budget. Finally, the Contexts section provides an authoritative background on the country's history, wildlife, literature and music.

About the Author

Barbara McCrea was born in Zimbabwe and taught African Literature at the University of Durban-Westville. She now lives with Tony in Cape Town. Donald Reid is author of the Rough Guide to Edinburgh and co-author of the Rough Guide to Scotland. He is a freelance writer and editor who splits his time between South Africa and his native Scotland.

5.0 out of 5 stars Feeling safe with Rough Guide in South Africa, 29 April 2004
My partner and I spent 2 months in South Africa and used Rough Guide, ourfirst break from the other travel books available. I was pleasantlysurprised with the information in it and often had other travellerssharing our book. It's just a little more sophisticated than the rest. Themaps are clear and simple and the history section amazing.

4.0 out of 5 stars Impressive, 9 Nov 2003
By Mrs.J.E.Veart (Norwich, Norfolk United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
After years of persuasion, my husband finally got myself and our boys to SA, well did I impress him with my up to date knowledge of the country and all its fabulous sights! I guided him through mountain passes, to breathtaking beaches and even told him how much to tip the guy who filled up our fuel tank...

Invaluable and reading this at home first prepared me for the wonderful country that it is and not what the media portrays.

Well Done

3.0 out of 5 stars Good overview but would benefit from updating, 10 Oct 2003
By A Customer
Good general commentary on the country, but not always up to date when it comes to places to eat and drink.
