Swartkrans has yielded the largest sample of Paranthropus robustus, and it is also significant for the discovery of the earliest evidence of the use of controlled fire in Southern Africa, dating back 1-million years.The tour costs R350 per person and includes a sumptuous picnic
.Please note the tour is strictly for adults only.

The Sunday carvery lunches will be available every Sunday from 12h00 to 15h00 at a cost of R125 per adult.
