Have you adopted a penguin yet? :)

Hi,
I'm planning a trip to Kruger Park in July, and I have two important questions:
1. I'm looking for a guided tour for 1-2 days in the park, so if you have any recommendations. I'd also like to take a night tour (I've already booked two nights in Mopani station).
2. We have a problem on our last night - we booked an early flight (7:00) from the Mpumalanga (Kruger) International Airport, so I guess we won't be able to spend the night in the reserve. Do you have any recommendations for a place to…

Can anyone suggest accommodation (clean en suite facilities) in Knysna and Storms River in September. Should we book accommodaton in advance? any other recommondation for accomodation along the garden route? Thank you

Hiya,

Does anyone know how far and how easy it is to get to the bus station from J'Burg airport.
I'm landing at 6.50am and need to get to Phalaborwa by either an internal flight or bus. I don't really want to come out of J'Burg airport becasue of the problems but it's cheaper to travel by bus. The other thing is the bus leaves at 9.30am so might miss it! Would I have to prebook the bus ticket or turn up on the day?

Thanks

7 days in southern africa

I'm going to south/southern africa as part of my around the world trip. how should i spend these days:
1. 2-3 days in Capetown
2. 2-3 days in Voctoria falls/game park
3. 1/2 day in Jo'burg

Can anyone recommend what to do for one afternoon in Joburg? I have a one-night stopover and get in about 3pm. I wanted to go to the Apartheid museum but it's a monday so it'll be closed. Any suggestions of things to do?

Would it be difficult for a Canadian with Medical work experience as a lab tech in the fields of blood services and transfusion services to find work in Cape Town with a hospital, private lab/clinic or a medical organization?

Does anybody know of any Mark Warner style resorts in SA either in Durban, the Berg or Cape Town area?

I have posted on the Botswana branch but no responses so maybe someone in SA can advise. I have read conflicting reports about the need for a Cholera vaccination before entering Botswana. Can anyone advise whether this vaccination is required for Botswana (entering from SA) and whether vaccination certificates are requested at the border (Gabs). Would a listing of vaccinations suffice, rather than certificates.
