Eastern Cape Adventures

Loading player...
Chantelle is a local Eastern Cape Tour guide
She enjoys guiding visitors to the Valley of Desolation and Camdeboo National Park.

Cradock is a place of literary legends, war heroes and anti-Apartheid struggle icons. But it is perhaps best known for street level, day-to-day, warmth and kindness – so typical of much of the Eastern Cape.

It's the dream you didn't know you had... to two-step down a quiet Karoo street lined with quaint cottages, or "Tuishuise" and an elegant hotel. This is Die Tuishuise and Victoria Manor in Cradock and these restored cottages are pure Karoo peace and serenity and a beautifully restored historic boutique hotel.

More than two dozen Tuishuise line Market Street up to the Victoria Manor, a grand old colonial hotel that welcomes you with hearty country fare, an indulgence of superb traditional Karoo and South African food - evening meals are by candlelight. Décor is inspired by the 1800s and the droves of adventurers who passed here en-route to the Hinterland.
