Maropeng: Official Visitor Centre for the Cradle of Humankind World Heritage site reviews

Truly a wonderful place to visit, the atmosphere was nice and chill, the staff was warm and welcoming. The tour guide truly knocked it out of the park, very knowledgeable, and a natural and interesting presentation of all the information. …

A must see if you’re close by and are interested in history, evolution and enjoy museums. R100 for a basic tour and a tube ride underground into a simulated cave that show cases the elements of life. …

Very cold when we visited but it was a great breakaway visiting the motherlands of humans... Tour guide was awesome and energetic. And the caves ride was awesome and scary... Love you bed and enjoyed it though
