Activity Description

Step Back in Time. Embrace the Present.

Journey through the origins of humanity with a day trip that blends archaeology, adventure, and vibrant cultural discovery. Begin your experience at the Cradle of Humankind, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the world’s richest hominid fossil sites. Explore the world-renowned Maropeng Visitor Centre, where interactive exhibits, underground boat rides, and ancient fossils tell the story of our shared beginnings.

From there, continue to Lesedi Cultural Village, a vibrant showcase of South Africa’s diverse cultural heritage. Immerse yourself in the traditions, music, dance, and daily lives of five distinct cultural groups: Zulu, Xhosa, Pedi, Basotho, and Ndebele. Guided by locals, you’ll walk through authentically recreated homesteads and enjoy a powerful performance of traditional dance followed by a delicious pan-African feast.

This experience is perfect for those looking to connect with the deep roots of our past and the rich, living cultures of South Africa today.
