Best Of Cape Town’s Beach Holiday Adventure

Itinerary:

Day 1-2:

After your picked up by our tour manager from your hotel you will set off from Johannesburg in an easterly direction, past Witbank and Middelburg, to Lydenburg. From there, your route continues to Ohrigstad and the Blyde River Canyon, and your stop for the next two nights, Aventura Blydepoort. Once ensconced in your two-bedroom chalet, why not take some time to discover what the area has to offer, including the famous Canyon, Bourke's Luck Potholes, God's Window and Pilgrim's Rest. There are also numerous activities in the resort such as pony riding, swimming and Putt Putt (miniature golf).

Pilgrim's Rest is located on the scenic Panorama Route in the northeast corner of South Africa's Mpumalanga Province. This quaint little village offers the visitor an interesting selection of cultural, historic and eco experiences in an atmosphere reminiscent of the early pioneers.

The Blyde River Canyon is the third largest canyon in the world and its spectacular peaks and ravines mark the drop from the great Highveld plateau to the Lowveld. At the centre of the canyon are the fast-flowing Blyde River and various smaller tributaries. The canyon is home to a diversity of plants, many endemic to the area, as well as many animal species.

Bourke's Luck Potholes are a natural water feature marking the beginning of the Blyde River Canyon. They have occurred where the Treur River plunges into the Blyde River and the resulting swirling whirlpools have caused waterborne sand and rock to grind huge, cylindrical potholes into the bedrock of the river.

God's Window is a lookout providing a superb view of the Lowveld. At the top of the walk is a lush natural rain forest with beautiful indigenous trees, ferns and flowers.
