Emergency Numbers
Travelling in another country can be a concern for many visitors, especially when they fear that if they are in an accident, or need medical attention urgently, or fall victim to a crime, contacting an emergency service will be very difficult. Fortunately the Western Cape authorities understand this, and have tried their best to make it as easy as possible for anyone to get assistance as quickly as possible.
