Connect with nature as you walk with powerful and respect-commanding rhinos at the Rietvlei Nature Reserve, followed by an authentic South African braai lunch. Meet a famous local sculptor who will personally show you his creations in a serene garden setting and spend a night on the town in Mamelodi, a township northeast of Pretoria. The following day visit Freedom Park, the Voortrekker Monument and the Union Buildings before winding down at the hotel with sundowner cocktails at the pool.

The Cradle of Humankind is on your doorstep where you can trace the origins of the human race by visiting the Sterkfontein Caves, paying respects to ‘Mrs Ples’ and other recent magnificent archeological finds. A trip to the Maropeng Visitor Centre is a must where we end the day with sundowners on the pool deck as the African sets on another glorious day.
