Getting a local SIM card in South Africa

Interesting report but I think you may have overpaid. Next time try asking locals for recommendations.

I was there in February and can add some detail:

Prices: Good value overall. I spent about $150/day on the hobby side.

Girls: Mostly locals. Quality was varied.

My favorite spot was an agency I found online.

One tip: Go early in the evening for first pick.

Great report, thanks for sharing. I had a similar experience when I was there last month.

Adding to this thread with my own experience from 3 weeks ago:

Things are much the same as always since my last visit in pre-COVID.

Biggest change: More competition means better service.

Still a great destination. Solid 7/10.

Spot on with the prices. That's exactly what I paid when I visited in February.
