Honeymoon to South Africa during October 2011

South Africa Review

A great tourist destination. They really know how to look after tourists and make sure you stay is as trouble free and comfortable as possible. I was expecting everything to be very cheap in cost compared to rip off Ireland but found it to be reasonable for eating out especially when away from Cape ...
