South Africa recommended for value for money

Holidays with great value may be found in South Africa

South Africa offers value for money to holidaymakers, according to Rhino Africa.

Travellers looking for a good value destination may want to head to South Africa, it has been suggested.

According to tour operator Rhino Africa, the country has a strong currency and may additionally appeal to Britons for being in the same time zone as the UK.

Searching for cheap holiday insurance could also be beneficial when it comes to cutting costs.

Cape Town and Kruger National Park are the most popular South African destinations for British holidaymakers, as people tend to combine a beach break and a safari in one trip, Rhino Africa said.

Anton De Wit of Rhino Africa commented: "Cape Town ... is a bit like Barcelona. You can do a normal safari without malaria issues and next year we are hosting the World Cup."

He added that South Africa's diverse attractions mean holidaymakers can enjoy "the whole world in one country".

British tourist arrivals in South Africa rose by 6.8 per cent in August 2009 compared with the same month last year, according to South African Tourism.ADNFCR-2301-ID-19478873-ADNFCR
