It is a lesser known fact that from May to September there are some exceptionally good low season specials to be found in Cape Town.
Many guests choose to combine time in Cape Town with a safari in the Kruger National Park. Winter months on safari are traditionally associated with providing some of the best game viewing. Unlike Cape Town, the Kruger Park experiences summer rain, therefore between May and September you are traveling in the winter when there is little chance of rain falling.
This means that the bush is dry and the vegetation low. This means that visibility is better and it's easier to see the animals. The lack of water means that animals are restricted to areas where there is water such as rivers and dams. This in turn means that the rangers and guides have an easier job at finding the animals! During the day the temperatures rise to the early thirties, but no cloud cover means that during the evening the temperatures plummet. During the day you can expect to see crystal blue skies with no clouds. Bug wise safaris in the winter are better and the risk of malaria is greatly reduced.
Cape Town winters are not as bad as people are often led to believe. Yes, if you are looking to spend the day on the beach then you will be disappointed! However you are almost guaranteed one or two fine days giving you the chance to go up Table Mountain and explore Cape Point. Cape Town has some fine restaurants and these often offer winter special menus. The days are cold and require a jacket and the area is prone to rain, but we personally think that nothing beats a great glass of Cabernet Sauvignon at one of the great winelands cellars.
