Half Day Cradle of Humankind Tour

Our accredited Tour Guide will collect you from your pickup point, in a private air-conditioned minivan and drive for +/- 45 minutes to the Cradle of Humankind sites. Sterkfontein Caves (UNESCO world heritage site) will be our first stop. There are scheduled Guided Tours on an hourly interval into the caves. Your Tour Guide will get you tickets and usher you into the small exhibition / waiting room where a local Site Guide will start the tour of the caves from. The tour involves walking up and down stairs into the caves and bending over at some sections. Comfortable, non-slippery walking shoes are recommended. There site has a coffee shop, bathroom facilities and free Wi-Fi for your convenience.

After exploring the Sterkfontein Caves, your Tour Guide will take you on a short drive +/- 15 minutes to the next site, Maropeng Visitor Centre. Once again, you will get tickets and be handed over to a local Site Guide who will take you on a tour of the center on an hourly interval. At the Visitor Centre, there's also an option of taking a self-guided tour of the exhibitions with your accompanying Tour Guide facilitating that. The site also has a restaurant, clean bathrooms, free WIFI and curio shops for your convenience.
