Can’t explain how significant this trip to South Africa. As an avid solo traveler, which country to visit as my 1st experience in Africa so I chose this country due to its recent history with Apartheid and current social& developments. Plusit was the easiest to maneuver without a tour guide. The ease of Airbnb bookings, uber, nightlife, safari tours, steady infrastructure, strong economy and of course Tin...der, South Africa was the best option. No regrets….
Having the opportunity to travel through South Africa visiting Johannesburg and Cape Town for 2 weeks – gave me the chance to experience the uniqueness of each city, people and culture. Also, meeting the different members from the following tribes: Zulu, Xhosa, Sotho, Tswana, Pedi, Venda, Ndebele, Tsonga, Pondo and Swati with 11 distinctive languages with clicking sounds. Awesome to hear and listen. Importantly, ate some wild game animals like Impala, Kadu, Ostrich and Springbok.
Johannesburg
Great time in this city and experienced the good, bad and ugly. Amazing nightlife with a variety of party and lounging options with tons of attractive eye candy, safari tours as well as cool as locals who are more than willing to show you around.
Party areas are in Sandton, Maboneng Precinct, Braamfontein
Airbnb is accessible with quality and luxury lodging options. Preferred neighborhoods are Sandton, Newtown and Maboneng which are close to the action.
Uber is accessible all over the city except in the CDB (Central Business District) where the taxi drivers are beefing with Uber drivers. Yes, my uber driver was attacked while I was in the car. Shit was wild.
Visited and party in Soweto Township was fuckin amazing. Hanging out in this township was fun and safe.
Cape Town
Chilled city with a lot of outdoor activities to do like mountain climbing, lounging at the beach, township visitation, wine vineyard tours, clubbing and etc.
Party areas are in Camp Bay, Waterfront and Long Street with tons of attractive eye candy of all races.
Airbnb is accessible with quality and luxury lodging options. Preferred neighborhoods are Long Street, Camp Bay or Sea Point which are close to action.
Visited Langa Township with a local during the day.
Volunteered as Father Christmas for a group of kids from a local township and gave gifts. Amazing experience and highlight of my trip.
Tinder is amazing
Overall, this was an amazing solo trip experience and highly encourage others to visit South Africa. There is much to see and do and you will have a blast.
