The Cradle of Humankind has become one of Johannesburg biggest attractions. Its unbelievable that the oldest human fossil in the world and fossils of 2 million years old are still been found to this day.
We have put together a comprehensive day at the Cradle of Humankind that includes a visit to the Lion And Rhino Park. A wild game drive is always a good way to start or end an African experience. The tour is fun and relaxed. Everything can be adjusted to suit your requirements and schedule.
Cradle of humankind has more Australopithecus fossils than anywhere else in the world," said geologist and geophysicist Darryl Granger of Purdue University.
Now, new dating techniques suggest that the remains date back nearly 4 million years – making them even older than the famous Australopithecus afarensis individual Dinkinesh, nicknamed Lucy.
Multiple ancient hominin remains from caves in South Africa may be much, much older than previous estimates suggested.

Shane drove us from our Johannesburg Hotel to see the Cradle of Humankind, where we learned about the hominid fossils found in the region and the Rhino and Lion Park, where we saw lions, cheetahs and wild dogs very close-up. The carnivores were fed at 1:00 pm on Sunday, and Shane knew just where to park to have a front-row seat!
Shane provided excellent conversation during our drive, discussing South African history and his interests in cycling, hiking, and other athletic activities. He was everything you would want a guide to be. We learned a lot and felt well cared for every step along the way.

We absolutely loved Shane. We had a perfect day with him. He is super knowledgeable and has a fun personality. The Lion Park was awesome and Shane knew the folks that worked there and the spots the animals often were. We highly recommend this tour, we wouldn’t have changed a thing.

The tour was well thought out and well executed. The museum is interesting but it should be maintained a little, there are some sections that are not perfectly functional, but overall it gives a nice idea of human evolution and more... the best are the animals, it is incredible to see them so close up and thanks to the precious narration by Shane I was able to get a lot of useful information and some unrepeatable photographic shots. Good humor is at home with Shane, I had a fun and exciting day!

We had a great trip with Shane.
He first took us to the Cradle of Humankind and then to the Rhino and Lion Park. Sadly we did not see any rhinos, but the lions and wild dogs were spectacular and Shane made great efforts to get us the best views as he knows the park and it's routine very well!
Afterwards, he kindly dropped us off at JNB for our flight to CPT.
It was an amazing experience and Shane's knowledge and experience was very beneficial. Many thanks Shane.

It was an amazing tour, and the guide, Shane, was friendly and gave us a lot of information. The tour started by visiting the cradle of humankind museum, then visiting the Rhino and Lion reserve. I enjoyed a lot.
Much of love to this beautiful country (South Africa) from Kurdistan Region of Iraq, Erbil
