No visit to the Lowveld is complete without a stop over at Harrie’s Pancakes in Graskop. The signature pancake is thick, fluffy and absolutely delicious. Try it plain with cinnamon sugar or indulge in one of the deliciously filled savoury or sweet pancakes 😜

THE OYSTER BOX - UMHLANGA. This iconic hotel is well worth a visit. Superior service, exceptional location, delicious buffet breakfasts, perfectly presented high teas and the best curry selection in the area!

We are blessed to live in a beautiful country that offers so many incredible places to explore.

Robertson, just under two hours from Cape Town, is such an amazing valley to visit. So much to do, taste and see 😍

Privileged to have explored the valley again for the past two days and am grateful to have connected with old friends and to have made some new ones!

Thank you to Robertson Tourism and some of the amazing attractions/eateries/guest houses/wineries in the area for showcasing your valley and your awesome offers.

I was fortunate enough to join a bunch of fellow tourist guides on a walk through Salt River today exploring some of the incredible street art.

Baz-Art is a NGO harnessing the power and creativity of art to build communities. Salt River street art is a collaboration between Baz-Art and local as well as international artists.

The 3km long walk showcases some amazing talent and each art work tells a story.

Well worth the visit.

Characterised by rock formations and endless fynbos-dotted plains, the otherworldly Cederberg is a place like no other.
