Fly to Johannesburg, South Africa For Less
Whenever I think of South Africa, I think about how quickly time passes by. The South Africa of 10 years ago is much different than the South Africa today. While the country still faces its share of problems and challenges (which country doesn’t?), it is a pretty exciting time to live in South Africa and an excellent time to take a holiday there.
You can fly to Johannesburg from London for £375, which is not exactly a bad deal considering the distance you’ll be traveling. Johannesburg is the largest city in South Africa and one of the 40 largest metropolitan areas in the world. The city is in the headlines a lot for its crime, but that shouldn’t deter you from paying a visit. Crime happens all over the world. The smart traveler won’t be affected by it and since you are reading this blog I know that you are a smart traveler (my apologies if my writing is making you dumber).
Johannesburg is not traditionally associated with tourism, but it is a central hub if you want to go elsewhere in the country and it does offer enough sites to hold your interest for a while. It will also be the home of the 2010 World Cup, so if you take advantage of this deal you’ll be able experience the city before it becomes transformed for global football fans.
For the absolute best information about Johannesburg and about the rest of the country, I fully encourage you to take some time to explore the excellent content on the South Africa Logue.
