This fascinating insight into the traditions, knowledge and modern-day
life of the San involves accompanying a group of qualified San guides.
Our guides will lead you in a truly unique experience that will last
between 2 and 3 hours and include all of the following:
- Photo Gallery and Audio Visual film – This new exhibition looks
at the reasons why our San ancestors chose to distinguish special
places in the landscape by creating ‘rock art’ (images
painted or carved into rock) that can be interpreted today in order
for us to understand more about ancient San beliefs and customs.
- Interactive Discussions with San Guides – Most tourist activities
which focus upon the San rarely provide visitors with a chance to
meet the San themselves. At !Khwa ttu, our guests can enjoy direct
interaction with our San members of staff and will hear honest and
realistic accounts of the past and present lives of the San. Visitors
can also hear examples of our famous ‘click’ San languages
being spoken and can find out more about many of the modern-day initiatives
that the San are now involved in.
- Get on board a open vehicle to spot our game – Take a drive
through the our idyllic landscape. !Khwa ttu is a 850ha game reserve
and is home to a wide array of indigenous animals such as Eland,
Zebra, Oryx, Bontebok and Springbok.
- Enjoy our Nature Trails - Leave the vehicle
behind and join the professional San guides on an easy nature walk.
Learn about the secrets and traditional stories of the past. Listen
to the experiences of contemporary San as they tell you of their
own memories of hunting, gathering, tracking and knowledge of fauna
and flora.
- Enjoy a Refreshing Drink at the Boma– your San hosts will accompany
you to our beautifully designed Boma, constructed of natural materials.
Nestled at the highest point in the landscape of !Khwa ttu you will
experience breathtaking views of Table Mountain to the south and
the Langebaan lagoon to the north. Sip away and relax as you enjoy
the peace and tranquility of our treasured land.
