Kruger National Park

With nearly 2 million hectares to explore, unparalleled diversity of animal and plant species to discover and historically and archeological significant sites – The World-renowned Kruger National Park offers a wildlife safari experience that ranks among the best in the world.

Johannesburg

Jo’burg as it is locally known, is the economic hub of South Africa, with incredible diversity and social devices, it is home to the Richest Square mile in Southern Africa; the Apartheid Museum and Soweto, where you can tour Mandela’s home.

Durban

As one of the oldest sea-port Citys in the country, Durban is filled with a rich history and lots of influences from India, there is lots to explore and lots to do. Golden beaches to laze on and a warm ocean, what more do we need to say.

Cape Town

Known as the ‘Mother City’ by locals and tourists alike, Cape Town has lots to offer to keep you busy, including Robben Island; Table Mountain; the V&A Waterfont; the wine and garden route, just to name a few.

Whether it’s your first time or your tenth, South Africa delivers. Explore untamed coastlines, hike dramatic mountain ranges, taste world-class wine, or find peace in a secluded forest cottage. We help you uncover the kind of travel experiences that stay with you.

We’re not another travel agency, and we don’t want to be. Explor is a hand-curated collection of honest reviews, unique stays, scenic road trips, and unforgettable South African experiences. We focus on the places that don’t always make the glossy brochures: family-owned guesthouses, off-the-beaten-path attractions, hidden beaches, mountain cabins, quirky towns, and everything in between.

Whether you’re escaping Joburg for the weekend, planning a cross-country road trip, or just looking for a quiet farm cottage to unplug, we’ve got you covered. Every place we feature has been personally explored or deeply researched, so you can skip the guesswork and get straight to the good stuff.

No fluff, no fake hype, just local insight that actually matters. Because the best parts of South Africa aren’t always the ones with the most stars, they’re the ones with heart.
