Tsietsi was an excellent guide to the Cradle of Humankind. He gave us a simple and informative background in a humorous manner which made all the party very relaxed and interested. The Museum itself kept us interested for more than 2 hours, and there was opportunity for lots of activities for children and fun-loving adults to engage with. You come away with a lot of food for thought after this very enjoyable visit. Highly recommended, the morning was very quiet for a visit compared with later in the day

Loved this place but I was disappointed that I only got to stay there for an hour or so. It was part of a tour and this was the only time they allowed so I felt like I missed out on seeing so much.

This was a 45 minute drive from the Montecasino, Sandton area. Watch out for GPS error on entrance and follow the signs to Maropeng (Brown signage) for correct entrance!

We arrived at 10.45am and were joined by 7 other people for our tour. Danny was our tour guide and was very knowledgeable. Exhibits were well presented and the short lazy river added to the mix of exhibits.

The viewing platform at the top of the restaurant gave you great panoramic views.

We would have loved to have visited the caves but unfortunately it was closed for our visit (by all accounts they’ve been closed for a while).

There is a large hands on section which is great for kids and adults alike.

It said to book online which we did, but when we arrived you could pay at the door too.

We spent 1 hour at this attraction.
