Into the Soul of the Waterberg • In the heart of South Africa, less than a three-hour drive from Johannesburg, QWABI Private Game Reserve offers a rich, immersive encounter with the region’s diverse wildlife and stunning landscapes. One of only two UNESCO-proclaimed biosphere reserves in Africa, QWABI is home to some of the most exquisite animals in the world, owing to the region’s ecological diversity.

Sip Sensationally this Summer • Considered one of Franschhoek’s best kept secrets, Backsberg Family Wines offers a sanctuary of taste and tradition, blending over a century of winemaking heritage with a vibrant new spirit. This fifth-generation winery, hogging prime position tucked away just off the main road is open from Wednesday to Sunday, ready to welcome guests interested in exploring its legacy rooted in sustainable practices, innovation and a deep love for the land. As the summer sun bathes the valley in warmth, Backsberg invites you to immerse yourself in an experience where every sip tells a story.

A Touch of the Mediterranean for Your Summer Table • The Mediterranean conjures images of beautiful blue oceans, fields of lavender, acres of olive or lemon trees, charming villages, passionate people with foreign accents, generous plates of food and wine glasses filled to the brim. While all of these would be accurate, the area along the Mediterranean coast consists of 22 countries across three continents and along a shared coastline of 46 000 km, so there is much more to “The Mediterranean” than anchovies and Rosé.
