Hello,

If you could provide a bit more information, it would be easier for us to make some suggestions that might help you.

When are you going? What is your budget (per person, per day)? What are you interested in doing in SA (seeing Cape Town, tasting wine, going on safari, driving the Garden Route, shark diving)? How many people are travelling, and what are their interests?

Cheers,
Julian

For such a specific question, how about a specific answer: South Africa.

Hi

I would advice you to spend a couple of days in Johannesburg. Check out the Aparthied museum, Soweto, Constitution Hill etc. A safari in the Kruger park is also very nice :-) Check out my trip report from Johannesburg here: http://gardkarlsen.com/johannesburg_...frica_2004.htm

Cape Town is a beautiful city that has a lot to offer. If you have the time you can also drive along the coast...the so called Garden Route :-)

Regards
Gard

Thanks Gard and everyone for their advice. My budget is less $1500 - $2000 for all expenses (hotel, food, travel)

THere will be only 1 person traveling

If I have 2 weeks in S Africa, should I stay in CT the whole 2 weeks or go to Johans and CT
