The currency situation in South Africa favours the travel providers. In October 2022, 1000 rand still had an equivalent value of around 55 francs, now the exchange rate is a good 47 francs. This corresponds to a loss in value of almost 15% and eases the budget of Swiss travellers.<\/p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=&#8221;4.10.7&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.10.7&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.10.7&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<p>The demand for South Africa tours is correspondingly high. Not only at Knecht, but also at other Africa specialists. \u00abWe are currently 20% up on last year and 15% up on 2019,\u00bb says Dominic Eckert, owner of Dreamtime Travel, on request.<\/p>\r\n<p>The loss in value of the South African rand has a direct impact on the travel budget of the Swiss. Holidaymakers can plan longer stays, visit more sights and even include additional adventures in their itineraries.<\/p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=&#8221;4.10.7&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.10.7&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_image src=&#8221;https:\/\/kapweine.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/safari-1.jpg&#8221; alt=&#8221;safari&#8221; title_text=&#8221;safari (1)&#8221; url_new_window=&#8221;on&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.10.7&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.10.7&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;0px|||||&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<h5>\u00a0<\/h5>\r\n<p>Various forms of travel are in demand, with safaris and road trips making up a significant share of bookings.<\/p>\r\n<p>No matter which form of travel you choose, South Africa offers a wealth of experiences that will make your stay unforgettable.
