Accommodation South Africa: Cape Town Accommodation
Cape Town has large numbers of hotel, guesthouse, and bed and breakfast rooms. But in peak season availability becomes a big problem. Peak season is from mid December to January. Book your accommodation as early as possible if you want to visit Cape Town during this time. For some places that means reserving more than a year in advance.
Cape Town also is a fast growing international conference and convention center, especially in February, March and November. So if you happen to be booking during one of these times you may have to be flexible (most of the accommodation at the V& A Waterfront will be booked if it is a big convention). So again you’ll be well advised to reserve early.

Accommodation South Africa: Johannesburg Accommodation
Johannesburg, THE big city of South Africa, is more a business city than a tourist one. It does however have very interesting historic and cultural sites, like the
Mandela Museum
the Apartheid Museum and the Cradle of Humankind, World Heritage Site.
It is also the shopping capital of Africa. Many Africans from other countries flock to Johannesburg to shop throughout the year, and especially at Christmas.
Though it has a reputation for being unsafe, we lived in Johannesburg from 1993 through 2006 and thank God never had a problem. Having said this, be alert. You are in a big city that does have crime. And some of the best weather on earth – well over 300 days of brilliant sunshine with low humidity. So especially if you are in transit to Cape Town or safari and want good, convenient accommodation South Africa's big city is a great option.

Pretoria Accommodation
Pretoria is the executive capital of South Africa. It is where the President of South Africa has his executive offices, the Union Buildings. It is a lovely city, a lot quieter than bustling Johannesburg.
Pretoria is also known as the Jacaranda City because of it has thousands of those trees lining its streets. Thirty miles north of Johannesburg, both cities are about the same driving distance from Johannesburg International Airport (now OR Tambo International Airport) so you can stay in either.

Port Elizabeth Accommodation
Known as the Friendly City, Port Elizabeth, now part of the Nelson Mandela Municipality, is a wonderful, family oriented city. Though the third largest South African city, it is still has a small town feel with a great beach and boardwalk. Safe and clean, we love it!

Finally, learn more about one of the most exciting ways we've discovered to go on safari. Going on safari under canvas - an African tented safari. Why? Because you hear nature more intensely & can see the stars as well. And it is luxurious, or it can be basic. We have found it to be simply wonderful to
experience African tenting safaris in South Africa’s national parks, game reserves and conservation areas.
