Get on a plane. With a hotel for a few nights and a flight it will cost you less than $1,000.
You can do all the research that you want on Google, but until you are on the ground, it does not mean that much. You have to eat at some restaurants, see the people, get a feeling for what is happening locally.
Let some people on BP know that you will be in SA for a few days and set up some meetings. Get their opinion of the area so that you can make up your mind.
