5 important things you should know about South Africa

1

It's South Africa.

Are you a glass half full person? You need a country that brims with optimism. Our flights to South Africa take you to the land that gave the world vuvuzelas, the Rainbow Nation and Nelson Mandela. A country built on hope, reconciliation and, let's face it, some of the sexiest scenery on Planet Earth. The sounds of Africa and its bush. The smells of the jungle. The sight of an endless sky.  

2

It's convenient.

Fancy a long weekend? Why go to Paris when you can go to South Africa? Sound mad? It's not. It's almost on the same time zone as the UK so there's no jet-lag. Plus an overnight flight sees you wake up under African skies. And that is something. Or you can always go to the Costa Del Usual. But where's the fun in that?  

3

It's the Big Five.

Lions, buffaloes, rhino, elephants, leopard. Which one scares you most? The bad news is they can all run faster than you! The good news is South Africa has probably the best-run game reserves in the world, with experienced guides, amazing game drives, hikes and horse rides, putting you closer than ever to the most fearsome animals on the planet.   

4

It's a world in one country.

Every country says this. But sometimes this claim is true. Where else would you find the inimitable Table Mountain, the chic beauties of Camps Bay, tribal villages in the Eastern Cape, the super-scenic garden route, the wines of Stellenbosch, semi-arid Kazoo or the bustle of Johannesburg, the powerhouse of Africa. Plus a world's worth of colourful people all living under the same sky.   

5

It's less than you think.

Flights to South Africa cost a lot less than you think. Even the benefits of business class are often within the reach of the average holidaymaker. Plus the weakness of the rand means you'll be getting mega-bang for your buck. You can choose to fly from London and Manchester on your way into Johannesburg, Cape Town or Durban.

Call us today to book your South Africa flights from many UK airports and to tailor-make your holiday down under. Don't forget to check out the price of our business class flights too. We can also help with hotels, car hire and a host of extras.

I was very pleased with your team especially since I couldn't change my flight while in South AFrica and you did it so quickly and efficiently. Thanks a lot and will use you again, easier than the net and far more friendly.

I can't thank Marcus enough. It was all just so easy. And the fact that I get to speak to someone promptly when I call, makes it all the better. The advice was always right, and I never felt like I was being "sold" anything. It was an amazing trip for me, and I WILL book my next flight, wherever I choose to go, with DialAFlight. Thanks
