Heritage Day in South Africa is all about embracing the diverse cultures, languages, and traditions that make our nation so unique. What better way to honour this day than by indulging in a dish that’s as rich in South African history as it is in flavour? Enter the bunny chow - a classic South African meal with humble roots.

Trip of a lifetime
This was a most incredible experience. Can not say enough about the luxurious lodging, quality of food and the outstanding service. Everything was perfect. Memories of a lifetime. Saw the big five and then saw things like mating leopards, newly born elephant and packs of wild dogs. Incredible.
