Excellent value for money

A trip to South Africa is very affordable as the South African rand offers great value for money against major world currencies such as the dollar, the euro, the British pound, the yen and the yuan. You can afford to travel around if you’re on a budget, however if you’d like to treat yourself with some luxurious accommodation and food you'll be surprised how affordable it is.
