South Africa Car Rental
South Africa is an excellent choice for holiday car rental, a vast country comprising of widely varied landscapes from serene beaches to rugged mountainsides, and a fantastic number of animal species makes for a great safari.
Cape Town
The city of Cape Town is the top destination for people travelling to South Africa, visit the Cape of Good Hope for it's unique position between the Atlantic and Indian Oceans, and take a swim on either side. With miles of coastline South Africa has some of the most dramatic coastal cliffs and beaches found anywhere on earth. Table Mountain nearby to Cape Town is a great day out, phenomenal views can be achieved from locations easily reached by car for those who do not wish to hike in the heat.
Scuba Diving, Surfing & Windsurfing
Port Elizabeth and Jeffrey's Bay in the Eastern Cape are worth visiting for the watersport activities, the best scuba diving and surfing locations. Many old wooden shipwrecks can be found off the coast, due to it's position on the old shipping route between Europe and Asia many were forced to brave the treacherous waters, but this now makes it paradise for scuba divers. The waters off the coast are ideal for surfing and windsurfing, with Jeffrey's Bay being the top location.
On Safari
Inland there is also a lot to do, with fantastic wildlife to be seen in the popular Kruger National Park, a huge array of animal species are found in South Africa, including many endangered ones. The Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park is located in the middle of the Kalahari desert, an incredible place to find hoards of antelopes, wildebeest, buffalo.. and their predators - lions, leapards, cheetahs, hyenas. Many people visit South Africa wishing to go on safari, especially to see the 'Big 5' - elephants, buffalo, leopards, lions and rhinos, but there is an awful lot more you can see, probably the best and safest place to go on an animal safari is here in South Africa.
South Africa boasts the best developed road system in all of Africa, highways connect all the major cities and destinations and much is accessible by smaller roads. Enjoy the thrill of driving on dusty roads through the countryside with very little other traffic around. Remember, in South Africa, drive on the left hand side of the road.
