TRAVELLING across South Africa can be an exciting way to explore new places, meet people and experience different cultures.

- LUTHO PASIYA

For teenagers, it is important to plan carefully and stay safe while enjoying the adventure.With the right preparation, a trip can be both fun and secure.

The first step in planning any trip is research: Learn about the places you want to visit, including local customs, transport options and popular attractions. South Africa offers a wide range of experiences, from beaches along the Garden Route to wildlife safaris in the Kruger National Park and cultural tours in cities like Cape Town and Durban.

Knowing what to expect can help you plan better and avoid surprises.
