RE: A well-rounded weekend

in Weekend Experiences6 years ago

I'm sure there is and we would still like to get there for a look. We'd like to do one of those eco-tours, you know, when you stay in those plush tents at night and drive around looking at the wildlife in the day. Probably not an authentic experience of course, but something we've always been interested in.

Sort:  

Depends on which province you wish to visit Cape/Namibia have winter rain season best to visit November to February, KwaZulu-Natal where I reside is summer rainfall best to visit May to August.

Each region will have eco-tours on offer, many do arrange to/from transfer from airports, always ask before making bookings. Some will offer camping or slightly cheaper accommodation, to more expensive outdoors tents on private game farms, all depends on how much one wishes to spend financially.

Yes, it always comes down to the money I guess. We did some research a few years back and ended up going back to Europe instead on that occasion. I wish now that we had done the Africa thing, but we can't go back in time I guess. I hope it happens though.

Whenever you are ready put out an ask here in Hive there are many South Africans spread across the provinces who I am sure will give you good information.

South Africa is a cheap destination for most countries, it all depends on what type of experience you are looking for.

I will do so, there's a few South Africans around the place, certainly enough to give me a better clue about the place.

Feel free to give me a shout if you ever decide on KwaZulu-Natal.

Personally I feel travel to airport, rent a car, go directly to spots outside of any city, like Australia a couple of hours drive to get anywhere.

Oh we drive left side of road like yourselves, automatic SUV for ease of travel through parks a good option. Have an awesome weekend.

I will do so and thanks for the offer. This is why I like hive...People are nice. Good to hear you aren't crazy and drive on the right like some other weirdos! Lol.
