Get in a flap

If you're feeling adventurous, you have to give ostrich riding a go. A short flight to George takes you to Oudstshoorn, the ostrich capital, where visitors experience a take-off with a difference. We've got more tips on seeing South African wildlife up close on our blog.

The Cradle of Humankind

Take an underground boat ride and travel the history of humankind. This fascinating attraction is built on the site where a two-million-year-old skull was found. Head to our blog for more tips on seeing all that Jo'burg has to offer.
