Lesedi Cultural Village Day Tour
The ‘Rainbow Nation’ of South Africa is very unique from any other country in the world. What makes this country so unique is that it is comprised of over 12 different ethnic groups. The Lesedi Cultural village is a colorful and vibrant journey into the various tribal homesteads and culture that make up the majority of South Africa. The cultural village is a fantastic way to get on overview of South Africa’s tribal history. The Lesedi Cultural Village Day Tour lasts for approximately 2 hours.
And if the visual stimuli was not enough we finish the tour with a demonstration of African drumming and traditional dancing. African drums hold a special place in the hearts of the Zulu and Xhosa people. Drumming in the rest of the world is associated with making music sound better. In South Africa, the drum represents a more symbolic and historical meaning. Combined with a traditional ritual dance, the drums are a vital part of any ceremony from births to deaths to weddings. The loud pounding of many drums is a powerful way of stirring up emotions especially before going to battle. And the only battle you will experience is the fighting for leftovers from lunch.
Sterkfontein caves Day Tour
The enchanting and ancient Sterkfontein caves have been attracting visitors from all over the world for more than 30 years, thanks to their incredible limestone formations and the discovery of the oldest human skull known to man. This incredible subterranean cave system is located beneath the rolling hills of African bush situated in the World Heritage site known as the ‘Cradle of Humankind’.
The guided day tour through the Sterkfontein Caves will be an unforgettable sightseeing experience as you wander through majestic caverns, explore archeological sites, marvel at the stalactites and stalagmites and enjoy the crisp clear air of an ancient cave system. The caves are only an hour’s drive from Johannesburg. The most recent discovery is that of an almost complete ape man skeleton named ‘Little Foot’. The fossil is believed to be nearly 4 million years old.
