Road Trip's Podcast - Travel, Touring and Holidays in South Africa using the Road Trip mobile app
Tourism to South Africa: South Africa is a world-class tourist destination. These podcasts are a way to create interest in South Africa as a holiday and travel destination. We highlight interesting and cool history, explain monuments and memorials, put the history into context, and we hope to make your road trip through South Africa more interesting! Road Trip SA is a mobile app to help tourists find monuments, museums, statues and thousands of POI's. All the listings on the app have a photo, a brief description and some history of that spot. We hope to encourage downloads so clients can explore our history and culture. The narrator of the podcast has a tour and safari company called "Touch Africa Safaris"- http:///www.touch-africa-safaris.com
