Escape From Johannesburg

Standerton, Escape From Johannesburg

"As all towns in South Africa they battle with poor service delivery but I still enjoyed my stay and my focus was to finish my work and I did!"

Dinokeng Game Reserve, Escape From Johannesburg

"Nog jong reservaat, maar ek glo dis 'n uitstekende alternatief vir diegene wat die bos-ervaring binne Gauteng wil geniet."

Fouriesburg, Escape From Johannesburg

"Clarens and Fouriesburg are a piece of heaven. The surrounding hills and rock formations are so stunning. Fouriesburg is also close to Clarens with its special and quaint shops to admire. The Golden Gate National Park is a must to see as well. Best to drive in from the Bethlehem side as the roads from Ladybrand and Ficksburg are not in a good condition. It would also be nice to see the gates in and out of the Golden Gate Nature Reserve staffed as valuable income is being lost there. Such a stunning area. A must to see."

Parys, Escape From Johannesburg

"Yes we were very impressed with Parys. It was neat and clean. We enjoyed seeing the mini Eiffel Tower and lovely quaint shops in that street, as well as the wide Vaal river banked by its beautiful trees."

Dinokeng Game Reserve, Escape From Johannesburg

"Veral tydens Covid lockdown kon ons wat woonagtig in Gauteng is nogsteeds 'n bietjie wegkom en die "wildtuin" ervaar."

Leeuwkloof Valley, Escape From Johannesburg

"Nice area to get out of the city and experience the bushveld."

Dinokeng Game Reserve, Escape From Johannesburg

"Lovely lovely lovely!"

Dinokeng Game Reserve, Escape From Johannesburg

"Reserve is well maintained. Dirt roads are well kept and easy to travel in a non-4x4. A real treat right in Gauteng! Well worth the trip."

Parys, Escape From Johannesburg

"Alles maak vroeg toe. Het ongelooflik lekker geëet by Hoi Polloi restaurant."

Parys, Escape From Johannesburg

"Pragtige dorp wat se rivier besoedel is met rommel. Veral by die ou brug. Parys se loopvlak (sypaadjies) is baie ongemaklik en gevaarlik. Die toenemende swaarvoertuig deurgang hou 'n gevaar in vir besoekers en verniel die pad. Die winkels is interessant en bied 'n wye reeks te koop aan. Sterkte aan almal met die noustrop ekonomie."

Rustenburg, Escape From Johannesburg

"Rustenburg is usually a nice place to visit more over the summer time. Have all sorts of places for every occasion."

Dinokeng Game Reserve, Escape From Johannesburg

"Perfek geleë naby aan Pretoria. Wonderlik instandgehou met vriendelike diens en die Groot 5. Beslis 'n besoek werd!"

Dinokeng Game Reserve, Escape From Johannesburg

"Mooi reservaat, paadjies baie goed opgepas en was maklik vir ons om rond te ry al het ons nie 'n 4x4 nie."

Parys, Escape From Johannesburg

"Parys is 'n lieflike klein kunsdorp."

Hartbeespoort, Escape From Johannesburg

"The place was so neat."

Dinokeng, Escape From Johannesburg

"Great place overall!"

Dinokeng Game Reserve, Escape From Johannesburg

"Ons het permitte gekoop om self rond te ry in verskeie areas insluitend die Dinokeng Reserve - in drie dae het ons slegs twee volstruise, zebras en bokke gesien. Die wild was nogal teleurstellend. Die piekniek-stal se winkeltjie is swak georganiseerd en die dames wat daar werk is uiters onvoorbereid. Sal nie weer besoek nie."

Parys, Escape From Johannesburg

"Lovely little town, with so many quaint antique shops and coffee houses."

Dinokeng Game Reserve, Escape From Johannesburg

"Ons het in die Dinokeng Wildreservaat gaan ry op die selfry-roete en het so baie wildlewe gesien! Baie ontspannend en pragtig."

Hartbeespoort, Escape From Johannesburg

"Wegbreekplek."

Dinokeng Game Reserve, Escape From Johannesburg

"It's a false sense of going to see the Big 5. You see the Big 5 only when you pay for a game drive because they are in that part where you not allowed to self drive. On the self drive we saw the usual animals which was exciting on day 1 but after not seeing any Big 5 after day 3, you start wondering if they exist and then learn you need to pay for a family to drive in the "proper" game reserve."

Potchefstroom, Escape From Johannesburg

"Kort 'n goeie skoonmaak, soos al ons groter dorpe."

Dinokeng Game Reserve, Escape From Johannesburg

"Die grasse (dekgras) was baie hoog. Die diere eet dit nie en dit verhoed dat ons die diere kan sien. Hoekom word daar nie bietjie uitgedun nie?"

Parys, Escape From Johannesburg

"Agteruitgang is diodelike sigbaar vir verskeie redes seker."

Dinokeng Game Reserve, Escape From Johannesburg

"Ons was net verbaas om in ons omgewing paaie wat "toe" is te kry, merkers is sommer net met stukke karton toe geplak wat selfdrive nogal 'n uitdaging gemaak het. Spesifiek merker 45 na die bird hide uit Arlington-weg."

Hekpoort, Escape From Johannesburg

"Daar is baie om in die area te doen. Staproetes en aktiwiteite. Mooi area ook."

Dinokeng Game Reserve, Escape From Johannesburg

"Mens moet in ag neem dat dit 'n jong reservaat is."

Dinokeng Game Reserve, Escape From Johannesburg

"Ons was teleurgesteld met Dinokeng omdat daar op die webblad Groot Vyf en roofdiere geadverteer is, maar in die vier dae wat ons die selfdrive route gery het, het ons geen Groot Vyf of roofdiere gesien nie. Ons het wel kameelperde, zebras, vlakvarke, koedoes, rooibokke, elande en swartwildebeeste gesien. Die piekniekplekke wat beskikbaar is lyk netjies, maar is glad nie omhein nie en as daar wel so iets soos roofdiere in die langgras wegkruip sal dit nie veilig wees om uit te klim nie."

Bobbejaansberg Private Nature Reserve, Escape From Johannesburg

"Hoogs aanbeveel. Nie 'n ver geryery met kinders nie en wonderlike wegbreek tydens die inperking."

Dinokeng Game Reserve, Escape From Johannesburg

"Roads are all well maintained and well marked. Easy to drive on. Needs a sightings board or app that is well publicised to guests in the reserve."
