Time of the year I would suggest from November to about March is summer so temperatures are a little warmer, but more likely to rain. From about April till September is our winter, so its a little chillier, not snowing weather, but definitely cold.

Places I would recommend with regards to travelling South Africa, is definitely go to Cape Town, it is beautiful there and the night life is quite busy. Durban has Ushaka, which is a marine world. Other places would include Gold Reef City - theme park, Sun city - Holiday Resort, The Kruger National Park - Experience wildlife and possibly the big 5. There are a bunch of cultural tours in and around Johannesburg. I would suggest you search for those to see which one would interest you the most.

Transport wise, either rent a vehicle, or you are able to catch ubers to most places. This give you the ability to travel without worrying about a care.

With regards to food, we have a whole assortment of it. I would say definitely try biltong and wors, possible pap (mielie meal)...um not to sure what other foods you would like to try.

I hope that answers all you questions. If you have any more, please feel free to ask :)

It depends where in South Africa you want to visit. I am from Cape Town, a popular tourist destination. There are many things to do. There are beautiful beaches, cultural tours, markets, shopping, a variety of food from fusion, contemporary to traditional dishes. You can do outdoor activities...swimming, cycling, hiking, mountain climbing, shark cage diving, paragliding. There is a also a nice light life. There really is something for everyone in Cape Town. Message me if you need more specific information. :)
