Looking at the SA matches (allegedly March/Apr 2022).
Playing with the idea 12 days (Cape Town then up to Pretoria/Joburg). My calculations are that the critical break-even-pint is number 170. That is a little disappointing, if I'm honest. 12 days averaging 14/day is probably beyond me at this stage of my life.
However, if I were to compare that trip to the standard long weekend in France, the sums would probably prove very favourable.

Book yourself into a vineyard / wine farm for a few days
You should be able to catch a few local amateur games also which are to a high standard.

For those thinking of making the trip in the Spring, the Munster Rugby Travel Ireland official tour in a few weeks is two and a half grand (Euros) for nine nights.
Includes quite a lot of stuff and looks decent value.

The sofa was the best for both games today - at least I could get a pint!
