5 countries in Africa South Africans can visit without facing much restrictions
With many countries around the world restricting entry to South African travellers, some who are itching to travel are planning sizzling getaways to select destinations on the African continent. Not only is it a few hours from home, but it also boasts a string of attractions that celebrate culture, history, cuisine and incredible landscapes.
John Ridler, the PR and media manager for Thompson Holidays, said there were many reasons to visit Africa.
“Africa remains one of the leading destinations in the world. Some of the factors include beautiful weather, affordable prices and shorter flying time. In terms of Covid-19, many destinations open for travel boast wide open spaces away from crowds and perfect for social distancing,” he said. Ridler said travel during the pandemic was ever-changing.
“Travel while the opportunity exists and you will less likely be disappointed,” he said, cautioning people not to book holidays in advance. Ridler said travellers exploring outside South Africa should be in regular contact with their travel agent and monitor the news surrounding their travel destination.
