Seasons for Travel?

Is there a best season or time to visit South Africa? Does it become more affordable in Winter when there are less travellers or is the Summer months better as there are more things to do? The truth is that there is no best or worst time to visit as it depends on what you want to do?

Best Game Reserves?

When you think South Africa, you immediately think game reserves and wildlife. However, the most popular game reserves are in the north of the country such as the Kruger National Park (which is the biggest one BTW). Does this mean that you have to travel all the way up north to see wildlife in their natural habitat? Definitely not!

“I hired the Happy EX 3 van. It was great, everything I needed. I loved driving it and served us well. What I want to highlight is the agility from the business. I called in on short notice to hire a vehicle over the weekend and the staff were so helpful. They accommodated my request on short notice and also allowed me to hire for 2 days. Without their openness and agility, I would not have had such a lovely time”

“Thank you for all the help and helpfulness from the team! We couldn’t have asked for a better vehicle for our trip; everything went very smoothly. We were very pleased that we already had all the equipment we needed for our adventure. We recommend them and will definitely be back!”
Shane Dean
“Made a last-minute dot com decision to hire a Happy Camper Van for a 2-night camping trip – what a great decision it was! The van is easy to change from seating to beds, loads of space for all the extra stuff we needed to pack. While it’s a big vehicle it was an easy and comfortable drive. I’ll definitely be looking for more opportunities to book a camper van from Happy Campers. Thank you, Zane, for the friendly, helpful service. You have another “Happy Camper Gang”.
