We offer those additional adventures (included in 5 days and longer safaris!):

Trip to the Drakensberg Mountains:
Half a day on route home is reserved for a tour of the popular scenic 'Panorama Route' of the Blyde River Canyon area in the Drakensberg mountains, stopping at all the major view spots such as: God's Window, Lisbon Falls, Bourke's Luck Potholes, The Three Rondavels and the historic gold mining town of Pilgrim's Rest. 

Activities such as Quad-Biking, Horse Riding, Hiking, Hot Air Ballooning and White Water Rafting can be arranged for the super active visitor.
The Blyde River Nature Reserve on the edge of the Drakensberg mountains is perhaps the most spectacular of all the scenic wonders of Africa. The views are breathtaking and they are full of extraordinary natural wonders such as God's Window, a deep gash in the mountain wall which presents an awe inspiring view of the Escarpment above and the valley floor 1000 metres below. Close to God's Window, the 46 metre high Berlin Falls where the Sandspruit River cascades down a rocky cliff like a graceful, willowy curtain into a still pool of emerald green.

You will see natural wonders like the unique Bourke's Luck Potholes, huge cylindrical holes and channels carved into the dolomite rock face, where the Blyde and Treur rivers meet. These rivers were named by the country's early forefathers and the area along the Blyde River Canyon (third largest in the world) is steeped in South African history. This odd formation, visible from the walkways over the gorge, is thought to have been fashioned over thousands of years by whirlpools created at the confluence of the two rivers where sand and pebbles whittled away at the rock. 

The spectacular Blyde River Canyon towers above the canyon floor in sheer vertical cliffs of orange ochre, soaring to 700 meters above the river. Beneath the cliffs the mountains appear to be swathed in bolts of luscious green cloth cascading into the dark blue waters of the gorge below.
