How much money should I allow for my meals?

At safari lodges and camps all meals are included in the price of your safari. City stays in South Africa usually only include breakfast. Meals are very reasonable when compared to prices in North America. 

 

In South Africa, a really outstanding dinner may cost you ZAR500 per person. That’s roughly US$50 and we would easily pay more than that in North America! For a simple lunch allow ZAR 200 per person (about US$20).

 

Beer is about ZAR30 (US$3) per bottle and wines start at about ZAR100 (US$10) per bottle in a restaurant.
