  • Spend some time getting acquainted with your rental. Fix your seat and mirrors, find the lights and blinkers, and get a feel for its handling before you set off. And remember to stay on the left side of the road in South Africa.

  • You'll be using the South African rand (ZAR) here. As well as your credit and debit cards, consider bringing some cash for minor purchases.
