SOUTH AFRICA TOURS
South Africa is a country known for her cultural diversity, natural landscapes, and magnificent wildlife. The safari experience is among the best in Africa and there are a number of sought-after game reserves to choose from.
Whether you prefer beaches or mountains, historical sites or trendy city life, there is something for everyone to enjoy. Kwa Zulu Natal and Cape Town are fantastic starting points for a South African holiday and if time allows, we recommend you incorporate both.
This is a colourful and vibrant destination that often sees travelers returning because there is so much to see and do and it is close to impossible to experience it all in one trip.

What is the best way to handle finances in South Africa?
We recommend traveling with credit cards/ debit cards that can be used at ATMS. This is a much better option than traveler’s cheques. Not all banks charge foreign transaction fees but please check with your credit card issuer. Please also advise your bank prior to departure that you will be using your credit cards in South Africa. There will be many opportunities to withdraw cash and this is a better way to manage your money safely rather than travelling with large amounts of cash on hand.
Is South Africa Safe?
As with most places around the world there are always going to be areas that should be avoided. Knowing these hotspots is vital for any travel destination and this is usually avoided by booking your holiday through a trusted tour operator or agent.
