Questions and answers for a trip to South Africa

Are there entry requirements for South Africa or the need for vaccinations?

Although, to the best of our knowledge, many travelers do not get vaccinated before arriving in South Africa and do not take anti-malarial medication, we recommend consulting a travel clinic. In 2019, the requirement for birth certificates for children was abolished.

When to visit South Africa

It is recommended to come to South Africa all year round. It is recommended to read in advance about seasonal activities. For example, in 2025, the cable car to Mount Shulchan will be closed for most of July and August. The whale season in South Africa is from July to November. The north of the country receives summer rains but the winter is dry. In the highlands it is cold in winter and in Cape Town the weather is similar to Israel. The Durban area is hot and humid most of the year. On average there are 7 rainy days a month on the Garden Road.

An international rental license is not required. The use of credit is common. Withdraw money only inside the bank branches and do not ask anyone for help. Rands can be pre-ordered to the Bank of Israel at the Bank Hapoalim counter. The DRAP conversion is usually at a less favorable rate. We recommend stocking up in advance with about 3000 rand cash per person
