Essential information for your trip

Visa Requirements

Travelers from many countries need a visa to enter South Africa. It is recommended to apply for the visa online before you travel. The visa cannot be purchased upon arrival. Check the official website for the specific requirements of your home country and allow sufficient time for processing.

Best Airport

OR Tambo International Airport in Johannesburg is the largest and best-connected airport in South Africa. It offers numerous international and domestic flights. Alternatively, Cape Town and Durban may be attractive, depending on which regions you want to explore by motorcycle. Check the flight connections to choose the best option for your itinerary.

Local Currency and Payment

The local currency is the Rand (ZAR). While credit cards are widely accepted in major cities, it is advisable to also carry cash for smaller shops or rural areas. Many tourist areas have ATMs that can be used with international cards. Plan your budget accordingly and check the exchange rates.

Vaccinations and Travel Insurance

Travel insurance is strongly recommended and should cover medical emergencies, theft, and cancellations. Certain vaccinations such as Hepatitis A, Typhoid, and even Yellow Fever are recommended depending on the time of travel and location. Check current health guidelines in advance and consult with a doctor to be well prepared.

License Requirements

An international driving permit is recommended if you wish to ride a motorcycle in South Africa. It is important to carry your domestic driving license and a copy. Note the left-hand traffic rules and check the requirements of the rental company. A local driving license is usually valid for a maximum of 12 months.

Buying a SIM Card

SIM cards are easy to acquire in South Africa. Major retailers, airports, and mobile service providers offer them. A ID card or passport is required to purchase a SIM. There are numerous prepaid plans with data packages that are well-suited for mobile internet. Compare the options to find the best package for your needs.
