That's great, but neither of us have been before, and we have no idea what to do when we get there. Looking for a top notch hotel, and suggestions on what to do. I don't mind a mini-safari, if there is such a thing, for example. Either that or we'll hop down the Cape Town where I'm rather more familiar. What concerns me the most are the crime horror stories like people being hijacked in their cars, or am I being a bit over-sensitive?
Security is fine here as long as you do not wander around alone.
Everyone drives and you should avoid downtown...

Best place to be is the Sandton area...Intercontinental is there as well and it's very comfortable, especially on Club floor
