Take First Group\u2019s quick quiz to discover which destination you should be visiting this December!<\/em><\/p>\n

South Africa is a popular tourist destination for good reason. With options ranging from the beach to the berg and into the bush, our country offers a smorgasbord of gorgeous, world-class holiday destinations. But, with so many options, how does one choose where to go this December?<\/p>\n

\u201cMarking off holiday time on your calendar can give you something to look forward to, but proper planning is key to ensuring that you have the time of your life,\u201d says Shaun Lamont, Managing Director of First Group Hotel and Resorts. He adds that it all starts with choosing the right destination. \u201cGoing on a beach holiday when you hate the sand isn\u2019t wise, and neither is\u00a0 going on a holiday to a secluded, off-the-grid cottage in the bush if you prefer all amenities that come with staying at a 4-star resort.\u201d<\/p>\n

So, what do you do? Shaun says that First Group have put a fun quiz together to help guests take the guessing out of where to go this festive season. You can take the quiz here:<\/p>\n

                               <\/p>\n

                              Mostly As: The Bush<\/strong><\/p>\n

                              If you answered mostly As, then an escape from the noise and fast pace of city life is possibly what you\u2019re after. Along with a good dose of rest and relaxation, a bush holiday (AKA safari) is likely to be right up your alley. Get ready to enjoy the fresh air, marvel at the stars and get up close and personal with the wildlife.<\/p>\n

                              Mostly Bs: The Beach<\/strong><\/p>\n

                              If reading a book while basking in the sun with your kids (or friends) frolicking in the surf sounds idyllic, then you possibly answered mostly Bs. So, heed the call of the waves; grab your sunscreen, hat and sunnies, and head to the beach for long, lazy days and gorgeous sunsets. While there\u2019s so much to see and do at seaside destinations, there really is no rush in Africa – so be as active or as lazy as you like.<\/p>\n

                              Mostly Cs: The Berg<\/strong><\/p>\n

                              Those who answered mostly Cs are likely to enjoy wide, open spaces and majestic scenery, toasty fires and glasses of gluhwein. So, if this is your idea of fun, then lace up your hiking boots and head into the mountains. Plus, if you taking the kids, many berg resorts have action-packed kids\u2019 activity programmes, as well as child minders on hand, so parents can relax, knowing that the kids are entertained and safe.<\/p>\n

                              \u201cWhere ever you choose to go, make your decision soon as hotels and resorts are almost at capacity and you don\u2019t want to miss out on making magical, lasting memories with your friends and family this festive season,\u201d Shaun concludes.<\/p>\n
