Hi friends,
I am planning to visit South Africa at the end of next year. I am going there with my friends.
My questions are:
Which is the best season for travelling to South Africa?
Where can I get a reasonable price hotel?
Before going there I want to book hotels through any travel websites.
My friend had suggested me one travel website www.asiarooms.com I find the site very informative and contains a vast list of hotels.
But I am little confused if it is ok to book hotels through that site?

Hi Richard,

When is the best time to visit South Africa? To some extent this depends on where you are planning to go. However, for the most part - March to May is probably the best time for most regions. The weather is cooler mid to low 20oC in the Cape, slightly hotter & humid along the Kwa Zula Natal east coastline, the highveld (Jo'burg / Pretoria) is still quite warm & the lowveld (Kruger National Park) usually high 20's to low 30's (degrees centigrade). The hottest & usually wettest months range from November - January.

Where to stay. Again this depends on where you're going, but there are plenty of options for both those on a tight budget & the less cash strapped traveller. Here are a few S.A. websites which might help.
