- Please note that prices are dynamic and may change in the peak season and on blackout dates.
- Please do not litter and keep the destination clean.

- Images are for representation purpose only.
- Kindly carry a valid photo ID proof. All foreign nationals must carry their passport as a proof of identity.

- If in case any traveller wants to or decides to leave the trip in the middle, all the expenses from the point onwards will be borne by the traveller. Neither the operator nor Vacation Kart will be held responsible for such decisions or for any refund.
- It is recommended that you purchase travel insurance. Please note that the travel insurance is not included in the package price.
- If you're travelling with children, it is recommended to carry a copy of their birth certificates. If only one parent is travelling with the children, an affidavit from the other parent, providing consent for the trip, is required. The step has been taken by the South Africa Government to prevent child trafficking.
- While credit and debit cards are widely accepted, there are still a few places in South Africa that only take cash. It’s best to keep a small stash of notes and coins for purchases at corner stores or buying things from market traders.
- Public Wi-Fi is fairly easy to find in larger cities and more touristy towns, but if you’re planning on wandering far from the main population centres, it is worth picking up a South African SIM card on arrival at the airport.
- South Africa is generally a healthy and safe destination, but there are some health risks and challenges that you should be aware of and take precautions against. One of the common health issues that travellers may face in South Africa is malaria, which is prevalent in some parts of the country, especially in the lowveld areas of Mpumalanga, Limpopo, and northern KwaZulu-Natal.
- South Africa requires a valid International Certificate of Vaccination or Prophylaxis (ICVP) documenting yellow fever vaccination ≥10 days before arrival in South Africa for all travellers aged ≥1 year, travelling from or transiting for >12 hours through the airport of a country with risk for yellow fever virus transmission.
- The South African National Department of Health recommends that travellers practise mosquito avoidance year-round in malaria risk areas (Kruger National Park & KwaZulu Natal) and take malaria chemoprophylaxis during September–May.
- For a summer holiday in South Africa, you should pack light clothing suitable for hot and humid conditions. Avoid clothes made from thick denim, nylon or polyester because these become sticky and uncomfortable on sweltering hot days; rather choose cotton clothes that breathe easily.
- Bring a warm wind-proof jacket for the evenings, particularly if you are planning a safari tour in South Africa. It gets nippy on the open safari vehicles after the sun goes down. Long-sleeved shirts and long pants are recommended for a safari.
- Bring a good pair of sneakers for walking and for the safari trips, as well as casual sandals or flip-flops/slides. A wide-brimmed hat or peak and sunglasses are essential.
- For a winter holiday in South Africa, you need a combination of clothes. The days are usually fairly warm and pleasant throughout the country unless a cold front is moving through the region, but the temperatures drop rapidly as the sun is setting. Bring a comfortable warm jacket, bennie, gloves and closed shoes for late afternoon or night Safari tours.
- It is highly recommended that you take out comprehensive travel insurance for a holiday to South Africa, which should include cover for medical costs and medical evacuations.
