North West

The attractions of the North West Province defy imagination: from the historic and cultural centre of the city of Mafikeng and the old-time atmosphere of the small towns of Groot Marico to the big game, predator and bird viewing in numerous reserves and underground scuba-diving sanctuaries.

The North West Province is a region of bushveld, savannah and farmland. With game viewing in malaria-free nature reserves and guest farms, bird watching, hunting and fishing, the attractions of North West tourism spoil you for choice.

Attractions:

Mafikeng, the capital of the North West Province, is a mainstay of tourism. For many however, the chief attractions are the small towns which constitute this province’s soul.

A typical example is Groot Marico, steeped in the old-time Bushveld atmosphere made famous by the stories of Herman Charles Bosman.

For the adventurous, scuba-diving in Wondergat (wonder hole), South Africa’s deepest natural sinkhole with its own unique fish species, will seal an unforgettable experience.

And of course Sun City and the impressive Lost City offer a resort holiday of the luxurious kind.
