It offers a relaxed, unspoiled atmosphere with beautiful natural landscapes, outdoor adventures, and a strong sense of local heritage.

The Breede Valley is a picturesque region in the Western Cape known for its rolling vineyards, fruit farms, and the Breede River. It’s famous for award-winning wines, outdoor activities like river rafting and hiking, and charming towns that blend rural tranquility with rich Cape heritage.
Klein Karoo Magazine
The Klein Karoo is a semi-arid valley nestled between mountain ranges, known for its dramatic landscapes, clear skies, and unique desert charm. It’s famous for ostrich farming, historic towns, scenic mountain passes, and a relaxed, artistic culture that blends nature, heritage, and adventure.
South Africa is a diverse and vibrant country known for its breathtaking landscapes, rich cultural heritage, and warm hospitality — from dramatic coastlines and mountains to wildlife reserves and world-class cities.
Visiting smaller towns is especially important because they offer a more authentic and personal experience of the country. These towns showcase local culture, traditions, food, and craftsmanship, while supporting small businesses and communities, and revealing hidden gems that are often missed on mainstream travel routes.

My name is Michele and I am the creator and designer of these digital magazines.
I have been a tour guide in South Africa for over 11 years and, since relocating to St Helena Bay—a much quieter fishing village—I am no longer actively conducting tours.
However, my many years in the tourism industry and the privilege of experiencing some of the most beautiful parts of our country inspired me to begin working on a series of online digital magazines.
I am truly grateful for the wonderful support I’ve received from the various towns — it is deeply appreciated. My intention is to produce more magazines throughout the year, showcasing other regions of our beautiful country.
I hope you enjoy reading and browsing through our magazines and if you would like to participate in future publications, please don’t hesitate to get in touch.
Through our close collaboration with Cape Town Tourism, we’re actively increasing your
exposure to a significantly wider audience.
