Tour the Eastern Cape with Speirs Tours tour operator South Africa - who will take you off-the-beaten-track in an area not vastly different since the Bushman and his prey roamed, undisturbed. Or since two great cultures, African and Western, clashed in this 'Border' or 'Frontier Country'. From the 19th century, the Eastern Cape's natural abundance set the scene for one of the most protracted struggles in African history. What could not be won through battle was ultimately won at the ballet box in 1994. The Eastern Cape's political sons of the proud Xhosa tribe, Mandela and Mbeki, have become world icons of a united, democratic South Africa. Whether visiting battlefields and ruins of forts, rock art sites, old mission stations, or simply hiking or game viewing, the awesome natural wonder and tranquillity overwhelms time and again. Experience the natural beauty; preserved ancient cultures; historical drama and romance of the Eastern Cape. Discover South Africa!
