Everyone craves a little adventure in their lives. Adventurous activities allow us to step out of our comfort zones and push us to experience new things. A holiday break is perfect for discovering adventure and trust us, there is something for everyone.
If you looking for activities to do with the family and kids over the school holiday break, look no further:
Here are 5 adventure fill activities you can do over the upcoming vacation break
1. ScooTours
Test your balancing skills with this one. Take the kids and their friends to enjoy an exhilarating (yet safe) downhill descent on the Monster Mountain Scooters.
This is not an extreme sport, but it definitely feels like one! Gravity bikes are non-motorized and propelled by gravity which is a fun and unique experience for the whole family and great for kids’ parties.
With branches across South Africa, there’s little doubt you’ll find a location near you. P.S: You can save R151.
2. Tsitsikamma Canopy Tour
You might start your experience with a scream, but you will end it with the biggest smile on your face.
Zip-line across the Garden Route and have the adventure of a lifetime. Who wouldn’t want to explore the Garden Route in a new and thrilling way?
Enjoy a 2-2.5 hour zip-line trip in the heart of the Tsitsikamma Forest, for only R725.
Discover more of the Garden route with things to do in George.
Before we go on, hiking is also another great outdoor activity you can enjoy. So with this in mind, why not take a look at the 6 best hiking trails in Pretoria?
But let’s continue.
3. Sandboarding South Africa
Strap up and get your adrenaline pumping as you slide or carve down the Atlantic sand dunes in Cape Town.
Don’t worry; there is no fitness or professional experience level needed. All you need is the board —which is supplied— and of course, a sense of adventure.
So get hiking up those dunes to be able to board down at an incredible speed to grab this adventure at a deal you can’t say no to.
4. Acrobranch
Are you up for an obstacle course challenge? It’s a great way to spend time outdoors and burn off extra energy.
Acrobranch is a treetop experience; suitable for the entire family. A unique adventure moving from tree to tree in lush, green forests. Obstacles include awesome tree-top high ropes and tricky crossings (with ladders, tunnels, walkways and bridges).
A two hours of fun and adventure with Acrobranch would cost R380 but we want you to enjoy this adventure at an extra saving spoil.
White River Rafting
Jump into a 2 -man, inflatable canoe and challenge your upper body strength to be in control of your own boat with rafting. Just be prepared to paddle your arms away!
This is a great team-building activity but can be enjoyed by young and older individuals. So, put your teamwork skills to the test with this one! Bonus: you can save R451 on this adventure.
What fun-filled adventure will you be doing this holiday break?
