Sun City

Set within a volcanic crater in North West Province, Sun City is southern Africa's premier entertainment and resort destination, developed by Sol Kerzner in 1979 at a cost equivalent to over $1 billion in today's dollars. The resort's Palace of the Lost City hotel, ranked among Africa's most opulent properties, sits within 25,000 hectares of the Pilanesberg National Park where visitors can see all of the Big Five on game drives — offering 30% lower accommodation rates than the average luxury safari lodge in the region.
