International tourists now have the opportunity to go on virtual tours of some of South Africa's top natural attractions thanks to the Mzansi Experience.
The Mzansi Experience was launched by Discover South Africa on Google Maps. Google South Africa created 360-degree imagery of the country's iconic locations, which enables visitors to go on a virtual tour and see the sights for themselves on their phones, tablets or computers.

"South Africa is home to some of the top tourist destinations in the world, home to eight Unesco World Heritage Sites and home to the Kruger National Park, one of Africa's largest game reserves. This imagery seeks to showcase the beauty of the country to those who are interested in virtually traveling here and will hopefully to inspire them to visit in person."
