I agree. The exchange rate favors the US visitor. Plane fare is by far the most expensive item. When planning a trip to Africa it's definitely not just for diving however. You really need to take in as much of this beautiful country as you can. Although my trip was primarily to research new dive sites for our website and build relationships with other shops to help promote dive travel there, you also need to experience a safari at Krueger...

Jeez, you don't know what a divers roll is? Where have you been? Ok, neither do I.......

Very nice

Diving in S.A. is far cheaper than most places here are examples Single dive = R180.00 including a divers roll. Non Diver Accommod R180.00 per dive (Airfill included but no gear) Gear rental R35.00 per item per day Full Gear R225.00 per dayation per request. Tiger diving = R900.00 including a divers roll. Personalized DVD for Tiger diving = R500.00 Divide these figures by 8 to get the rough dollar price and about 10 to get the Euro price L.O.L.

Oh man wow thanks! Thats impressive. I would love the opportunity to do that some day.

hey, We were in SA in July, had our Great White trip cancelled twice cos of the weather - gutted!! The exchange rate isnt as good from the UK now as it was about 18 months ago, but its still really cheap. Only problem is that the flights can br pricey, especially this year with the Lions touring. Without doubt though, I would recommend South Africa for diving or a normal holiday....stunning place (and really cheap Nando's!!!)
