Cango Caves

Loved the caves. First time back since 1989 when I was 8 years old. Now I took my children. Caves are still very well preserved. We had a great guide. Kids loved it. One can see that tourism took a knock during Covid with restaurant and shop still closed. This is such a valuable tourist attraction and asset to South Africa. Hope many South Africans can see this in their lifetime .

Had a lovely experience. The guide was well informed and friendly. The tour was fun, even though there was lots of walking involved. The breathtaking scenery took your mind completely off the exercise and humidity. Would highly recommend a visit to anyone.

A wonderful experience of this national heritage. The whole set up to the tour is excellent and efficient. I was highly impressed by the reception building and facilities they were clean and very well maintained. The caves are a true wonder and we were blown away by the history and the story of how they were discovered. Our guide was excellent. Funny and knowledgeable. I would suggest taking a bottle of water on the tour and due to COVID we were unable to book the Adventure tour which takes you through the much tighter and smaller chambers. Booking is essential if you want to get in and the tours leave every hour on the hour between 8-4pm.

A beautiful experience that everyone should have. I visited the Cango Caves on a Sunday afternoon. It was empty. I didn't mind as we had the entire place to ourselves. Our guide was absolutely fantastic in articulation and presentation of facts and answering questions. Currently, the adventure tour is not available, but once it opens, I am going back! Definitely an experience for the entire family.

The Cango caves are about 30 km outside the quaint town of Oudtshoorn. You have to book tickets online. Alistair was our guide and well knowledgeable. We did the Heritage tour which can be done with a low fitness level. Caves are well maintained with paved walkways. Price was R150 per adult and R100 for children. Bring your own food and drink since the curio shops are closed. Toilets are clean. Park at level 1 or 2, to be near the entrance.

Loved it. Been there a few times many years back. Covid has required the groups be smaller and the tours to be shorter.
But still great to see.

Booking is essential.
Tours are just on a hour.

Always such an awe-inspiring experience. Our guide was absolutely amazing. Absolutely a must see as you won't see anything like it anywhere else. Highly recommend the adventure tour if you are able.
