The Cradle of Humankind Local Tourism Association Review

A very interesting place to visit. But everything there contradicts what we know about God and how the world was created as a matter of fact according to the place there is no heaven nor hell nor God. But I went coz we went with work as an outing. I won't visit it again because it challenges my belief and it challenges God.

Lots of interesting exhibits, activities and things to learn.

From the staff and welcoming, through to the accommodation and food, will definitely be returning.

if you're in the area you have to go into the Sterkfontein caves, it's a must see...

I found the caves and museum to be fascinating and very educational. It was definitely worth the visit (if you're into that sort of thing)

What can I say ohh!!! my God that place is amazing, and beautiful. That's all I can say i really enjoyed thanks to my husband

Second time here. Very interesting. Make sure you don't have time restrictions when you visit!

Not so nice. Had a year end function there its boring

Definitely a place worth visiting - insightful & a pleasant meeting with the ancestors.

Oh my, this is a must see when in Gauteng. A very good way to spend your week end with family or friends

Excellent museum and amazing bronze statues of the long walk to freedom

Awesome experience. Got to see giraffes and wild boar just a few metres from me.

Beautiful place to visit. With a lot of information, about pre-historic man and animals. Restaurant is good.

Best place to learn about human origins. Great for a family getaway

A very nice experience... Although we go to stay away from groups.. They are too noisy. The overall experience was exiting.. The ride you get is rather mind blowing... Although you wish for more. The gravity Bridge was something that made us laugh... It's impressive. There is a lot to see and learn..

It is a nice fun filled place. The tour guides are highly experienced and the site is very interesting.

Interesting place. I especially recommend children of school age, but adults can learn a lot here. Note: The caves have episodes where you have to go on all fours ...

So much more than I expected. It's a world class tourist attraction.

Great for the whole family to enjoy cycling in the open.

Very interesting and a 'must to see' where and how we came about. Loved the ride on the inflatable through the ages.

This is a world-class must-see for locals and visitors. Not the usual static displays with ageing models (as I expected), but wall-to-wall interactive and well designed exhibits including a boat ride through time, spinning vortex, and many more hands-on experiences that held the attention of a 6yr old, 14yr old and 48yr old for hours!

Great story of early people, even 2+ million years. Week presented. Fabulous

I would give it a five but the rausturant service is poor, the one near the dam

RESTAURANT AND SERVICE VERY GOOD...FRIENDLY RANGERS AROUND THE PARK...VERY TOURISM FRIENDLY BUT
VERY DISSAPOINTED IN THE ANIMAL ENCLSURES AND OBVIOUDLY ONE ALWAYS FEELS CHEATED WHEN YOU DONT SEE RHINO
LUCK OF THE DAY I GUESS
OVER ALL A VERY GOOD DAY OUT IN THE BUSH...

The friendly staff and the beautiful wildlife just make the place just wonderful.

My roots, my father's, sisters place of birth. Peace of mind. We are only three of my siblings who were not born here. The tranquil still oozes peacefully.

Experience the current theories on the history of the earth in a high quality, interactive walk through time complete with a vortex that literally blows your mind. The outside bronze statue exhibition entitled Long March to Freedom is a must see emotional and powerful display of 100 life size icons. The restaurant has the best views of the Cradle of Humankind, offering an excellent carvery buffet on Sundays. Great for families, with lots for kids to do. Educational and fun for young and old.

Incredible place, you have to visit it to live the unique experience that it gives and feels to be in this place.

Very educational / It is about an hour and a half from Pretoria is a fascinating place recommended for children and adults

An intense touch of the wildlife. Great, friendly guides.

A must see. The guides are passionate and knowledgeable. The centre has a few (good) unexpected surprises.

Serene, scenic and absolutely secluded. Good for out of office business and family outings

Loved the experience of the underwater ride, was very fun, the museum exhibitions was very interesting and can keep someone busy for a very long time if they like educational games. Definitely ideal for kids to learn a bit more about humankind

Beautiful views from the viewing deck. Awesome place to visit to get in touch with history of mankind. Proud to be South African.

The boat ride was awesome. Historic and informative.

Nice place. Very interesting to see where our story started.

Very informative as well as interactive for the kids.

Beautiful heritage site that boast of collecting the most artefacts. Getting to the place can be tricky due to the poor signage.

Wonderful experience. Guides are very knowledgeable and engaging.

The staff are excellent!!!! But you will have to go experience the cradle yourself

I enjoy science and biology but this museum was disappointing and over priced. Save your R200 and do something else with your money!

Incredible place for those who want to know a little more about humanity's history
