What budget for activities and outings South Africa?
South Africa is the only destination in Africa that offers affordable safaris. The national parks do not require as high a fee as those in Kenya or Botswana, and accommodation is not limited to luxury lodges or bush campsites, a wide range exists, for all budgets. Some sensational activities such as paragliding, diving, bungee jumping remain more affordable than in France... Perhaps the opportunity for a big thrill?
A trip to South Africa is a real opportunity to do activities. For mountain lovers on a tight budget: the inevitable hiking. For those who love water sports, there is surfing, kitesurfing and canyoning along the rivers. The sports activities are relatively accessible in terms of price, you can have a lot of fun with less than a hundred euros of activities budget, and they are generally very well organized
The thrill-seekers will be the happiest: paragliding, sky diving, parachuting, bungee jumping, giant zip line, or of course diving in front of the great white shark... Here nature is a playground.
The less adventurous, for a budget sometimes a little more expensive, will opt for wine tasting directly in the vineyards with extraordinary views and why not a spa
There really is something for every budget. The markets are often cheaper, but you have to know how to bargain. On the other hand, more and more so-called "local" objects and clothing are arriving directly from China. That said, you still keep the merchant alive... But small designers are often the best way to buy local
Partying in South Africa doesn't require a huge budget. Don't think that life is cheap either. Even if it is cheaper than in Paris, some trendy places in the big cities are quite similar to Western prices. To go out for less, we go to the shebeens, the small bars in the townships.
What budget to eat South Africa?
There is something for everyone, but eating out in South Africa is quite affordable, especially by European standards. You can eat on the run for nothing at all, or indulge in a six-course gourmet meal, accompanied by local wines, with a great view and attentive service for a very reasonable price.
