6 lekker things to do in Limpopo
Whether you’ve been seeking an adrenaline-packed jaunt or a memorable trip with your loved ones, look no further than the captivatingly diverse Limpopo province.
Limpopo’s unparalleled charm lies in its irresistible blend of rich history, vibrant culture, and breathtaking landscapes. This is your 1-stop guide to a trip that’ll turn you from a Saffa to a very satisfied ‘Saffari’.
Here are our top 6 things to do in Limpopo province:
Polokwane
Kickstart your journey at Polokwane, Limpopo’s bustling heart. Boasting excellent facilities, Polokwane is more than just your pit stop for padkos. It’s the perfect launchpad for your Limpopo exploration. Spend a day at the Polokwane Game Reserve. A 5-minute drive from the city centre, it’s as close to a ‘drive-thru’ wildlife safari as you can get!
Debengeni Waterfall
From Polokwane, take the R71 towards Haenertsburg. This road is so scenic that you’ll think you’ve accidentally slipped into a postcard. With every twist and turn, there’s a landscape that demands your camera’s attention. No, really, even your teens will look up from their phones. For couples, a pit stop at Debengeni Waterfall offers a perfectly tranquil and romantic spot. Ideal for marriage proposals… Hint, hint.
Haenertsburg
Next, head to the charming town of Haenertsburg itself. Known for its delightful festivals and irresistible strawberry farms, it’s a sweet spot for the whole family. Couples can indulge in romantic walks through the Magoebaskloof forest while kids can channel their inner Sir Percy Fitzpatrick, hunting for elusive gold nuggets. Just kidding, but the gold panning at Pilgrim’s Rest is a must-do!
Phalaborwa and the Kruger
Your next stop: Phalaborwa, also known as the ‘gateway to the Kruger National Park’. Yes, that’s right: The world-famous Kruger. An early morning game drive followed by a sunset boat cruise at the Olifants River are sure to give you something to talk about at your next family gathering.
Echo Caves
Not far from Phalaborwa, the Echo Caves are a must-visit for any brave-hearted caver. Here, the echoes of your laughter will be just as loud as the kids’ squeals when they hear they’re visiting a real-life bat cave! Just remember, dads, no Batman costumes allowed!
Bela-Bela
A place so nice, they named it twice. Before you bid adieu to Limpopo, visit Bela-Bela, known for its hot springs. What better way to end your journey than with a rejuvenating dip in these therapeutic waters? While you’re at it, enjoy a sundowner as the African sun paints the sky with hues of gold and crimson.
In Limpopo, every dorpie has a tale, every farm stall has a tannie with the best homemade koeksisters, and every stop is an opportunity to create memories that last a lifetime.
Let’s get real for a second. South Africa’s roads are often challenging, so don’t forget to make sure you’ve got car insurance that’ll allow you to enjoy the open road without worries.
