Where to go .... ?

A few years back the wife and I got on our motorcycle and rode from Cape Town to St Lucia, and then back via another route - with NO pre-planning. As the sun started setting we looked around for a place to stay over. BEST trip we ever did. BUT, this was "out of season".
Now I am toying with the idea of doing the same in December, this time with the 4x4.
Worst case, we are totally self sufficient and can sleep in the back of the bakkie on some deserted dirt road ....
Few questions, to those that have done this -
- which "areas" would you aim for, and which would you avoid" in December ? (thinking climate, and scenery ...)
- Would you attempt something like this in peak season ? (not that I have too much of choise ... most of my leave must be taken in the builders holiday)
- any other advice ?
Ek het dit ook op die ander forum geplaas, maar sal graag ook van die Hilux familie wil hoor .....
