subject: All About The South Africa World Cup 2010 [print this page] Thanks to their excellent Group 6 qualifying stage, England have been confirmed to be competing in the Fifa 2010 World Cup in South Africa. South Africa is proud to be the first African country to host the football tournament, and spectators are looking forward to seeing what it can offer while enjoying some top-class football.
It's a race to get everything booked in time, as obviously flights, accommodation and travel is going to become increasingly expensive and scarce as the competition approaches. Book early is the key, but when you don't even know when or where your team is playing, sometimes it can be hard to commit.
The draw for the group stage of the competition will be made at the start of December, and this is fan's first chance to find out in which stadiums their team will be playing their three group games. Demand is likely to greatly increase once the names have been drawn, so it's the best idea to book early. 8 of the 9 host cities are easily accessed through Johannesburg, with Cape Town only hosting 8 of 64 matches.
Accommodation is going to become full quickly, so make sure you book early if you are planning on attending. Internal flights are already becoming hard to find, so it might be a good idea to reserve a rental car now to ensure that you can travel from city-to-city to following your team.
And if you have some time between games, there are many great things to do in Africa, from relaxing at the beach, learning about the country's history, wildlife as well as sports from surfing to golf.
If you're looking for travel specialists to help you organise your travel to South Africa, try to pick one which is a genuine expert and not just a travel company now offering South African holidays solely thanks to the World Cup. Experienced South Africa tour operators will have a more detailed understanding of the country and it's infrastructure, helping you make your holiday as pain-free as possible.
Match tickets can be obtained from the Fifa website, but apart from watching football, South Africa can offer you a variety of great activities, including safaris, adventure travel and tours of the extensive wineries. A World Cup in South Africa is an interesting prospect for those who plan to attend. The rest of us will have to look forward to seeing some of South Africa on television.
