Toilets Etiquette in South Africa

Public toilets in South Africa are usually Western-style, and in cities you should expect to carry small change or a card for paid facilities, while in rural areas or informal settings the standard can be more basic. In many homes and guesthouses, toilet paper is used and flushed normally, but in some older or rural places you may be asked not to flush paper, so look for a bin or follow the host’s instructions.
