1time Airlines, at R659, offered the cheapest flight from Cape Town to Johannesburg, and Shosholoza Meyl the cheapest train/bus. 1time R659 is also the cheapest Cape Town to Gauteng flight price we've surveyed since 9 Oct 2009 when Interlink Airline were cheapest (note that prices in these surveys are often fairly high, as we only check airline prices on late Friday afternoon).

Hariharan emphasises that Engogo River Water Lodge near Newcastle is "the best place I have ever been to" (Ed: Coincidentally our top January travel posting involved Stephen Hayes writing about his childhood experiences in Ingogo, near where Hariharan enjoyed himself. I would love to visit the area sometime). Hariharan stayed in one of 3 cottages by the side of a river stream passing through the valley with a backdrop of the Drakensburg Mountain ranges. To top it all there was no cellphone coverage, leaving him completely cut out from the world (a good feeling).
