Matkailuvinkit

Varaa hyvissä ajoin varmistaaksesi haluamasi päivämäärät Crystal Springs Mountain Lodgessa, erityisesti etelä-afrikkalaisten koulun lomiensa ja huippusesongin aikana. Vuoristosijainti tarkoittaa viileämpiä lämpötiloja kuin ympäröivät alueet – ota kerrokselliset vaatteet vaihtuville sääolosuhteille. Pilgrims Rest on noin 6 tunnin ajomatka Johannesburgista; suunnittele sen mukaan, jos ajat autolla. RCI-jäsenten tulisi varmentaa vaihdon saatavuus hyvissä ajoin ennen matkapäiviä. Historiallista kaupunkia tutkitaan parhaiten jalan; käytä mukavia kävely-kenkiä. Harkitse vierailua syksyllä (maaliskuu-toukokuu) tai keväällä (syyskuu-marraskuu) optimaalisille säaolosuhteille. Kaupungin ravintoloiden varausten etukäteissuunnittelu on suositeltavaa, sillä vaihtoehdot ovat rajalliset.
