For the winter, bring layers, including sweaters, jackets, and long pants. Remember to pack a raincoat or umbrella for the occasional showers. Don't forget sunscreen, a hat, and sunglasses, as the sun can be strong, even in winter.

    Consider taking public transport, such as the MyCiTi bus service, which offers a reliable and affordable way to get around the city. For longer distances, you can opt for the train or a shared shuttle service.
