Past Wednesday we chatted about ways of Getting around in South Africa. 

Below some great tips and advices on taking different transport options in South Africa: 

  1. STICK TO THE BUDGET

A3 Decide how much time U wish 2 spend travelling, your budget & where you want to go. Those factors impact transport choices. #TravelChatSA

2. USE REPUTABLE TRANSPORT PROVIDERS

A3: Use reputable providers, & common sense when travelling to ensure safety. Ensure that a family member knows your itinerary #TravelChatSA pic.twitter.com/4ErVkwx3zr
