Cape Town, My City.

 Compared with the same time period last year, research undertaken by the Royal Bank of Scotland reveals that visitors to South Africa will find the country  a whopping  22 %  cheaper!
 
With the current exchange rate, holidaymakers from the UK will find SA the most affordable vacation option this year, the bank reports.

For example, for £500 tourists can now get an extra R1,200, which is enough to add one more night’s luxury accommodation to the tab.

Iceland and Mauritius, at 18% and 16% cheaper this year, come in at second and third place.

When it comes to Europe, Hungary is discounted by 12%, making it the cheapest in Europe and fourth over all.

Finally, completing the top-5 is New Zealand, where visitors get an extra 11% compared with a year ago.
 
The bank also revealed that the exchange rate on both the US Dollar and the Euro have also improved, they have done so at a smaller margin than other currencies compared over the year in the survey. If you’re shopping in the States you’ll be paying 4 % less than a year ago, while the Euro is a negligable 0.4% less expensive.

So if you like to get value for money, come to sunny South Africa – you  can stay for 22% longer at the same price as one year ago!

And considering how much SA has to offer, that’s a real bargain!
