Where is Dinokeng you ask?


This area is a hidden gem just north of Pretoria. It makes for a great weekend away LESS than 1 hour from Johannesburg or Pretoria, a criteria we all bound to because of time restaints and busy schedules.

The area has been under transformation over the past couple of years.. with the development of the BIG 5 Game Reserve, still in progress. The Greater Dinokeng area covers approximately 281 000ha of rural land incorporating Roodeplaat, Cullinan ,Rayton and open bushveld north of Moloto Rd.

The attractions are plentiful, with affordable bush getaways, adventure, culture and history therefore catering for all interest and occassions.

African Chapter recently joined a site visit to various "off the beaten track" highlights adding to a very informative insight to the area, which anyone can incorporate into your package.


This included a Refilwe Cultural Tour visit incoporating stops at Vukuzenzele Agric Project and Tshepong Centre, where many purchases took place in support of Beadwork crafts,a project operated by disabled people. Another fascinating historical stop is the Cullinan Diamond Tour where a surface tour is offered sharing information on the history of the mining of diamonds. An underground Tour is also offered with more indepth information and experience.

Currently African Chapter Tours offers the following in the area, with our preferred suppliers whom we have received many great reviews on, from clients who have visited.
