Back home after 10 days in South Africa. Let me share what I found.

Arrival and first impressions: Taxi from airport was straightforward. Checked into my hotel near undefined.

Day 1-2: Explored the area, got the lay of the land. Noticed some tourist markups.

Days 3-5: Had some incredible experiences. The undefined area was surprisingly quiet.

Prices: In line with expectations. Some room for negotiation.

Tips for others: Don't flash money around.

Would I go back? Definitely, this is now in my regular rotation.

I was there in January and can add some detail:

Prices: Exactly as described. I spent about $80/day on the hobby side.

Girls: Mostly locals. Quality was above average.

My favorite spot was a place recommended by another member here.

One tip: Go early in the evening for first pick.

Spot on with the prices. That's exactly what I paid when I visited in February.

I was there in February and can add some detail:

Prices: Exactly as described. I spent about $50/day on the hobby side.

Girls: Mostly locals. Quality was good.

My favorite spot was the freelancer area near the hotels.

One tip: Late night you get the best deals.

How's the daytime scene there compared to Germany?
