Dine in the wild at the Neck & Deck Restaurant, located inside the Bothongo Rhino & Lion Nature Reserve in the Cradle of Humankind region. From its open‑air deck you’ll enjoy views across the bushveld and spot passing giraffe, zebra and other plains game as you relax with a meal. The menu offers everything from generous breakfasts and light meals to burgers, pizzas, main courses and sundowners. The restaurant also features a specialised wine and champagne cellar for adults. For families, the setting is ideal: a dedicated children’s play area and even a seasonal swimming pool mean the younger ones are well‑entertained while you enjoy your meal. One unique highlight: you can purchase food to hand‐feed the resident giraffe “Skye” right from the deck (subject to availability).

Step into one of South Africa’s most iconic heritage sites on this tour to the Voortrekker Monument for a guided tour, set majestically atop a hill just outside Pretoria. You’ll explore the monumental granite structure which honours the pioneering journey of the Voortrekkers between the 1830s and 1850s. Inside, admire the vast Hall of Heroes, home to the world’s largest marble frieze depicting the Great Trek in 27 panels — a striking visual narrative of history. You’ll also visit the cenotaph and the dome viewpoint, where on certain days a shaft of sunlight falls directly on the stone, creating a moving moment of light and symbolism. Outside, wander the surrounding grounds and nature reserve; from the upper levels of the monument enjoy sweeping views across Pretoria and the surrounding landscape. This outing offers a memorable blend of architecture, history and panoramic vistas — ideal for travellers who appreciate meaningful landmarks and photo‑friendly spots.
