Travel Tips
South Africa has introduced new coins and notes, but old coins are still common so it's hard to become familiar with what you're jangling. The R200 note looks a lot like the R20 note, so take care.

3 hour drive from Johannesburg International Airport to Panorama Route
See key map (G/H 7). Situated on eastern side of Mpumalanga.


The Panorama Route is one of the most beautiful and popular travel destinations in South Africa. It leads through the rugged mountain range of the northern Drakensberg in the Mpumalanga province of South Africa. The Panorama Route passes the north-eastern part of the Great Escarpment, the inland plateau declines abruptly and steeply and opens up fantastic views of the plains of the Lowveld a thousand metres below. This view is most reliable in the dry winter months. At other times the spectacle is often impaired, since the escarpment is a barrier for the clouds coming from the east, rising at this point and bringing a lot of rain.

An area of great history and scenery than anywhere in the world, and a journey to South Africa would not be complete without a visit to this gold and coal mining towns. Attractions range from trout fishing towns to old wagon routes and monuments over the famous Long Tom pass to the picturesque towns of Lydenburg, Dullstroom, Sabie and Graskop and pioneer mining village of Pilgrim's Rest in 1870.

Travel through "Gods playground" to Gods Window overlooking the green Lowveld. The most spectacular stretch of the Panorama Route is the Blyde River Canyon. From many well-positioned vantage points one has a view of the 33 km long gorge, which starts at "Bourke's Luck Potholes" and ends at the "Three Rondavels". The Potholes are very impressive rock formations that were shaped millions of years ago by erosion. The bizarre swirl holes developed when the once rapid river carried masses of sand and debris.

Situated in a malaria area, visitors are advised to take precaution during the summer and rainy months (September - March) in South Africa when visiting the Lowveld of Mpumalanga. (Information can be obtained from Africa Explore Tours & Safaris or any medical practitioner in your country).
