Father’s Day is around the corner, and just because we are entering the cold winter season, that does not mean you need to stay indoors with your dad this year. Our country has loads of adventurous destinations that you can visit to ensure that your dad has the best Father’s Day ever.
Revisit history at the Apartheid Museum
If your dad has a love for history and exploring some of the world’s most famous heritage sites, then visiting the apartheid museum is something that he will enjoy – after all, this happens to be the year that Father’s Day falls on the same day as Youth Day, making the day extra special.
Here you can explore multiple exhibitions giving you a close look at what South Africa was like during the apartheid era. What’s amazing is that the museum is open on Sundays as well as public holidays.

Lion and Safari Park
If your dad is someone who constantly chooses to switch the channel to watch his favourite animal programs on the Natural Geographic channel, then it is time to switch off the television screens and give him a real-life experience that he will never forget.
The Lion and Safari Park located in Broederstroom, Gauteng has a whole list of activities for all age groups guaranteed to exceed one’s expectations. Some of these activities include self-drives, guided tours, quad biking, horseback riding, mountain biking, and many more – what is even better is that children under 12 enter for free. There is also a restaurant that you can visit while the African terrain acts as your backdrop.
