Local Tips
- 1South Africa is moderately priced and offers a lot of value for money, especially with a strong US dollar/rand exchange rate.
- 2Safety varies significantly by area, and it's worth being upfront about this: South Africa has one of the world's higher crime rates, and petty theft, car-jackings, and armed robbery are genuine risks in parts of Johannesburg and other urban centers.
