Essential tips for your trip to South Africa

So much of South Africa's appeal lies in its landscape and scenery. If you want to enjoy the great outdoors, the best time to visit is March to May and September to November. These are called the shoulder seasons, when the weather is cooler but still very pleasant, averaging between 20 and 25 degrees. The peak season is November to March, with hotter temperatures and higher tourist numbers, so this is something you should consider when you rent a motorhome in South Africa.

    Malaria is a problem in South Africa and is endemic in certain areas, so do your research before you travel so you know what to take with you. Some areas and activities are more mosquito-attractive than others, but generally, you should be prepared wherever you are in the country. It's just something to think about when you rent a campervan in South Africa.

  • Driving in South Africa
    Driving in South Africa

    South Africans drive on the left-hand side of the road. The road surface condition varies in rural areas, and you will also need to be aware of wildlife straying onto roads in and around game reserves and national parks. Wildlife is easier to spot during daylight hours, the only time you should drive your campervan in South Africa.

Best Campervan routes in South Africa

The Garden Route
The Garden Route is a 200-kilometre stretch of coastal plain and one of the world's most spectacular drives. Its varied landscapes include gorges, mountains, forests, and the Indian Ocean. This drive is located between Cape Town and Gqeberha. Holidaymakers can visit wine farms, take short safaris in game reserves, and enjoy scenic stops. The route follows the N4 highway between Mossel Bay and Storms River, starting from Cape Town.

Route 62
Route 62 is South Africa's equivalent of America's Route 66 and runs from Cape Town to Port Elizabeth, a journey of 751 kilometres on the N2. It is a popular route for those that choose motorhome rental in South Africa. This journey is a mixture of incredible scenery, charming towns, and stop-off points, including the Montagu Hot Springs, the Robertson Wine Valley and the Inverdoorn Game Reserve, home to the Big Five.

The Drakensberg Mountains
Also called uKhahlamba, this rugged and mountainous scenery is spectacular. Cathedral Peak has numerous hiking trails and ancient rock art, and in the Royal Natal National Park, visitors can hike to the Amphitheatre and the Tugela Falls. The A1 is the main route through this area. The Sani Pass in the highest reaches of the mountains is only suitable for 4x4s.

Sites of interests and excursions in South Africa

Knysna
Knysna is a great stopping point on the Garden Route in the Western Cape. Unspoiled with stunning beaches, this coastal town has a laid-back atmosphere. There are plenty of water-based activities and hiking along trails in the Knysna Forest, which has a canopy of giant trees, streams, and rare birds.

Stellenbosch
A trip to South Africa is not complete without a chance to sample some wine. The Cape Winelands are located less than an hour from Cape Town, and the picturesque town of Stellenbosch is dotted with excellent vineyards and interesting colonial Cape Dutch architecture. In Franschhoek, a wine tram takes visitors to the wineries in the Franschhoek Valley.

Blyde River Canyon
Blyde River Canyon is one of the largest green canyons in the world with magnificent rock formations and spectacular waterfalls. It's a location worthy of a few days' stay, and visitors can team a visit to the canyon with a safari in Kruger National Park. The best travel option is the Panorama Route from Graskop stopping at Bourke's Luck Potholes, the Three Rondavels, Pinnacle Rock and God's Window. This is an excellent location for hiking, mountain biking, and white-water rafting, plus there are hot air balloon trips over the canyon itself.
