Just spent a couple of weeks playing 7 courses on the Garden Route. The courses are outstanding in design and condition and the fees are affordable, especially in comparison with Spain and Portugal.The welcome is warm and friendly. Pre- round breakfasts are a must at about a £5, halfway house beers at £2 - 500ml. Accommodation and eating out is excellent value. Wildlife on the courses is interesting - antelope,eagles, hyrax, monkeys, baboons and more. Memories of close encounters with elephants and rhinos in a "Big 5" wildlife reserve will last forever. I am already planning a return.
The sharp contrast between the luxury on display and the poverty in the townships is disturbing. However, with the rarest of exceptions, the workers at golf, restaurants, bars and car hire are black Africans. The money you spend is supporting their employment.
The programmed power cuts can be a pain. The lengthy flight is tiring especially when you can't sleep.
