🚨Important Travel Advisory to consider when traveling from Cape Town International Airport as a tourist visiting South Africa.
Perhaps this can save a life🧵
Cape Town is a splendid place to tour - when done right.
Concerningly, misinformed tourists are placed in grave danger when guided by Google Maps and perhaps other apps through highly dangerous areas. The quoted story is far too common.
