South-Africa was amazing, a very beautiful country with many bird species.
We (me and my family) went with a travelling agency, so I don't really know about prices, but I can ask my parents if you want. Travel was good, we had a small bus and one flight from Johannesburg to Port Elisabeth, distances are quite big.. Accomodations were very nice, not too basic.. I'm sorry my English isn't that good, if you want to know anything else, please ask..

Your English is very good Egretta!:t:

I agree South Africa is amazing; one of my favourite countries. I loved the area around the Tsitsikama Forest in Nature's Valley. Found it hard to tear myself away.

Thanks.. yes, that was one of the best things we've done, too bad we only had 3 hours or so, but it was an amazing place, very beautiful.
 
Cheers Chris, good report - and cracking pics! What sort of prices were you looking at? Bummer about the rockjumper....
