Safety Tips

Welcome to KwaZulu-Natal. As our guest your enjoyment and wellbeing are of utmost importance to us. We want your visit to be special, we want you to leave us with great memories, and we hope that you will return over and over again.

As is the case in other provinces and other countries, there are a few basic precautions you should take to ensure that your stay is as pleasant and safe as possible.

At your accommodation establishment:

• Never leave your luggage unattended.
• Store valuables in the establishments safety deposit box.
• Keep your room locked, whether you are in or out.
• If someone knocks, check who it is before opening the door.
• Hand the keys in at the desk whenever you leave.

In the street:

• Avoid ostentatious displays of expensive jewellery, cameras and other valuables.
• It is definitely not advisable to carry large sums of money around.
• At night steer clear of dark isolated areas.
• It is better to explore in groups and to stick to well lit busy streets.
• Plan your route beforehand.

• If you want to call a taxi, your hotel or the nearest tourism information office can recommend a reliable service.

 

In the car:

• Plan your route in advance
• Keep the car doors locked at all times and wind the windows up.
• Lock valuable items in the boot.
• At night, park in well-lit areas.
• Never pick up strangers.
