Explore the Beauty of South Africa: A Journey from Lions to Penguins
South Africa’s Tourism Opportunities Showcased in Budapest
On April 3, a special event took place at the Radisson Blu Béke Hotel in Budapest, where Travel with Flair (Pty) Ltd (TWF) highlighted South Africa’s tourism opportunities. Representatives from the South African Embassy, TWF leadership, and the local office provided insights into why this destination is worth exploring for travellers.
South Africa’s Ambassador to Hungary, Ganga Tele, opened the event and emphasized the country’s captivating landscapes, natural beauty, and rich cultural heritage. He also mentioned that Hungarian travellers can visit South Africa for up to 30 days with a visa, and the embassy offers full support to them.
Johanna Makgalelele, co-owner of TWF, encouraged the audience to visit South Africa at least once, stating that anyone who experiences the beauty and hospitality of the country would surely want to return.
Piroska, a Hungarian and head of TWF’s Budapest office, shared her experiences of living in South Africa for 35 years. She highlighted the country’s modern cities like Cape Town and Johannesburg, as well as its 12 UNESCO World Heritage sites. Piroska also mentioned that South Africa’s climate, lack of mandatory vaccinations, and time zone alignment with Hungary make it a convenient destination for travellers.
TWF’s services are now accessible in Budapest, Washington, and Dubai, offering support to travellers exploring South Africa. Piroska recommended planning at least a two-week trip to truly explore the vast country, which is 13 times larger than Hungary.
The event also featured discussions on motorcycle tours in South Africa, the country’s cuisine, wine industry, and nearby destinations like Lesotho, Eswatini, Zimbabwe, and Botswana.
TWF’s offerings extend to fishing excursions and unique experiences for travellers, including romantic and adventurous possibilities for newlyweds. The event concluded with a raffle and networking session, leaving attendees inspired to explore South Africa’s incredible attractions.
TWF and its partners invite curious travellers to discover the beauty of South Africa and experience its wonders firsthand. As the saying goes, once you visit South Africa, you’ll surely want to return.
