COUNTRY DESCRIPTION: South Africa is a parliamentary democracy and is in many respects a developed country, although much of its population lives in poverty. All major urban areas have modern, world-class hotels and tourist facilities. Game parks and areas most often visited by tourists have a wide range of facilities. Food and water are generally safe, and a wide variety of consumer goods and pharmaceuticals are readily available. The capital is Pretoria, while the seat of parliament is located in Cape Town. Johannesburg is the financial capital and largest city in South Africa. Durban is home to Africa’s busiest port and is the number one tourist destination for South Africans. Read the Department of State Background Notes on South Africa for additional information.
Health
South Africa has some of the best doctors and hospitals in the world. As I learned at school, the very first heart transplant was performed in Cape Town. So if you need to be hospitalized you're in good hands. Make sure you get travel insurance since quality healthcare is not cheap.
Malaria
Most of the main tourist destinations in South Africa are malaria free, making South Africa a particularly good destination to travel to with kids. The only areas where malaria is still prevalent are the Lowveld of Mpumalanga and Limpopo and on the Maputaland coast of KwaZulu-Natal, see this map to find out exactly where that is. It does include the Kruger National Park.
