Maropeng

One of Gauteng’s favourite heritage attractions, the award-winning Maropeng Visitor Centre has welcomed more than a million visitors since it opened in 2005. Adults and children alike can enjoy the underground boat ride where the four classical elements that made life possible can be experienced. Then visitors are taken on an interactive and educational journey through millions of years of human evolution. The exhibition features fun installations that teach visitors about pre-historic animals that inhabited Earth before they became extinct, as well as bipedalism, the ability humans have to walk on two legs. The Maropeng Visitor Centre is open seven days a week from 09h00 to 17h00. The last boat ride departs at 16h00.
