Uncover Our Origins: Cradle of Humankind Day Tour JHB

Wonderful experience at both sites. The guides were knowledgeable and enthusiastic about their topics. We went off season midweek and there was virtually no at the sites. Our driver for the day, Pastor, was excellent. Could have spent more time at Maropeng as there is so much to cover.

Ben was a great driver, on time and pleasant. To tour guides a each site were very informative and all were very social. Highly recommended

From start to finish, Marvin looked after me so thoughtfully and professionally. As a solo traveller, that meant more than I can say. His knowledge of the history was exceptional — not just facts and dates, but real depth, context and insight. He brought everything to life in a way that felt meaningful and personal. I learned so much, and it never once felt scripted or rushed. What truly stood out, though, was his genuine love for his country. It shines through in the way he speaks, the care he takes, and the pride he clearly feels. That passion made the entire experience richer and far more memorable. I felt safe, engaged, and completely immersed from beginning to end. If you’re considering this tour — book it. And if you’re lucky enough to have Marvin as your guide, you’re in very good hands. Thank you again, Marvin

Marvin is a really good guide. Provided me with very powerful and helpful information and is a friendly and nice person. I really enjoyed the experience.

A well organised day to an exceptional centre with the opportunity to learn about human origins is forefront.

I enjoyed the tour and most especially the cave. What a sight to see! I would recommend buying the slushy drink after the cave. So good! Marvin is a great guide/driver. He did a wonderful job of communicating and keeping me abreast of any changes. He is friendly and a very safe driver. If you're fortunate enough to have Marvin as your tour/driver, it will be a smooth experience.

Mr Marvin was excellent! It was an amazing tour. We went and saw some cool caves and rock formations then went to Maropeng, totally recommend!!

The trip was sold as a "Full Day " After visiting the cave and the Humankind exhibit the tour was over....it was only 12 noon. Not the Full Day promised. The regular rate is $159. I was charge $189 since I was solo and was booked less than 24 hours ahead and could not cancell. For only a morning tour I feel gipped. BEWARE. The two exhibits are wonderful go girl see them.

Fantastic day out, we really enjoyed ourselves and we were well taken care of by Rudzani! He was so informative and welcoming, definitely recommend his expertise

My husband and I arrived 2 days early for a tour in Namibia and used the opportunity to explore Johannesburg. This full day tour, with Michael as our driver, was a stress free way to visit the Cradle of Humankind. The caves and visitor center are a big drive from Jo'burg city and Michael delivered as safeky and on time to every stop. I would highly recommend this tour if you are interested in visiting these areas.
