Gems of the panorama route

The Panorama Route along the Blyde River Canyon is arguably one of the most beautiful destinations in South Africa. Here, in the north eastern part of the Great Escarpment, the inland plateau declines abruptly and opens up to breathtaking views of the plains of the Lowveld. The most spectacular stretch is the Blyde River Canyon, which is the 3rd largest canyon of its kind in the world. Experience the wonder of God’s Window, with views of the Lowveld that go on forever and the spectacular rock formations that were shaped eons ago by erosion at Bourke’s Luck Potholes.
This tour also includes a boat cruise on the Blyde river, where a qualified guide takes you to the very rare Kadishi Tufa Waterfall. Hippo’s, crocodiles and an abundance of birdlife, including African Fish Eagle, are among the wildlife to be seen.
