From colorful flowers to unique plants and trees, Mother Nature puts on a show at National Botanical Garden. You'll be wowed by the many plant species and the effort that's gone into the displays.

National Botanical Garden is the perfect place to begin your day of discovery in Pretoria. This showcase of plants comes recommended by fellow travelers, but it's not the only spot to see here. Allow some time for other sights like Silver Lakes Golf Course, Willem Prinsloo Agricultural Landbou Museum, and Sammy Marks Museum to really experience what the area has to offer.

10/10 Exceptional! (6 reviews)
Rockfig’s outstanding feature is the wonderful staff who made our stay so much fun. We wish we could have taken them with us for our entire trip thru South Africa. The food was absolutely endless and always beautifully prepared and presented. Our excellent guide, KG relentlessly, and successfully, searched the bush for excellent sightings. A+ to one and all at Rockfig!

9/10 Wonderful! (10 reviews)
This lodge is exceptional. The staff here make you feel comfortable and well cared for. The game drives are well organized and incredibly eye-opening. I couldn’t recommend this place more. My wife and I stayed here for 5 nights and it is now near the top of our most memorable experiences. I have to commend one person in particular however. If you get a guide named Petrus, you will not only get a knowledgeable and passionate guide, but you will also spend time with an exceptional human. From his commitment to customer service, to his willingness to connect on a personal level with his guests. We thank him from the bottom of our hearts for making every game drive feel like the best experience.
