| Travel Safety in South Africa
Some helpful do's and don'ts: Travelling in South Africa Many visitors to South Africa have never been here and don't know anybody in the country. Many people have no idea what South Africa is like and how easy travelling here really is. So to be safe and to make their trip comfortable, they book with one of the countless touroperators they can find on the internet. Unfortunately, there are many bogus touroperators who use the easy access of the internet to get rich quickly. Many tourists are caught paying horrendous prices for substandard services. It's important to do one's home work. The internet offers endless possibilities to compare prices and products. If a traveller knows more or less what he wants to do in South Africa, he can plan his own trip very easily by contacting the respective service provider via email and make his booking. Once you have planned your route and made your bookings for your accommodation and activities, you rent a car which you pick up at the airport. Drive during the day and be at your accommodation at night and no harm will come to you. You can organise your own trip for a lot less money and a lot more freedom and fun. Busy times in South Africa are always the times during the Transvaal or Gauteng School Holidays. During these days accommodation prices rise dramatically and bookings should be made well in advance. Outside the Gauteng School Holidays accommodation is pretty much readily awailable. Our roads are better than First World quality, they are in excellent condition, wide, straight and seldom very busy with traffic. Everybody in South Africa speaks English, many speak German and, a whole new experience for Europeans, South Africans are friendly and helpful and have impeccable manners. Every visitor is treated like a king! Check it out! | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
