Cape Coast, Ghana Road Trip


Cape Coast, Ghana Road Trip

I found myself in Ghana, back in 2014. Whilst there we decided to head out for an awesome road trip from Accra to Cape Coast. This is what happened!

We rented out a car, got a driver we set of...


The first stop was a beach side hotel called Kokobango...we had breakfast by the beach. very nice that!




We took a scroll down the beach, to let the food settle. It was all very pretty!






Along the way we met some locals doing there fishing run.




After a long walk, i decided to rock a hamok and cool down.


We then headed for Kakum national park. Its green, very green!




We paid about 40 Ghana Cedi to go along the canopy walk, it was all very exciting.








After all that we headed for Hans Cottage Botel for a spot of food. We had the most interesting experience. The place has live crocodiles and you can literally touch them...given you tip the attentant ofcause - and you still have a hand afterwards ;)






The drive was about 2 hours to and fro, due to ridiculous traffic - On a saturday...But it was worth it!

Mapungubwe Day Trip

Mapungubwe, at the very tip of the northern most part of south africa. what a beatiful place. I took the trip with 3 of my friends. We drove in from thohoyandou via makhado. Along which is an awesome road - The N1. Along the road there is a tunnel and a stop site for great photos.   The road heading to musina via the N1 is breate taking, the landscape, the mountains. Its all increadible   Finally, after a long 4 hour drive we made it to the site Mapungubwe is a national park, as such we had to pay a conservation fee of about R60 pp. Which wasn't bad. We also paid an extra R190 pp for the Heritage tour. Which you definately must do! The wild life obviously does not match up to the kruger national park (Nothing does) - But it was spectecular none the less. The Tree top walk was included in the cover charge. it was great. At the very end was the all mighty limpopo river. Stunning! The Mu

We preped up for the hour long drive from johannesburg to magaliesburg We slept over at an overnight camp site called Magalies Sleepy river. A very cool, well resourced place. We paid R70 pp for an electrified campsite. We had a braai, set up camp, brought along a Telescope for star gazing, had a lekker fire going, roasted marshmellows. It was great! The next morning we went exploring around the camp area. The river was very bueatiful, so was the surrounding.

Orlando, Soweto Towers So i decide, hey - lets get the blood flowing right...i hit up google and bamm! Bungee jumping, i'm like why not right. So i drive down to orlando, soweto bungee towers. They converted two old power towers into an awesome adrineline site. I went to the reception, Paid a R480 admin fee + an optional R100 for photo's. They don't allow cameras on the towers, so if you want a good selfie, you have to pay for the photos We started wit prep from the ground and got transported up by an elivator - That's when the fear started #HeartRacing  From the top of the towers the view is amazing... As you wait for your fate to be decide, don't look down! - You will start questioning yourself and start thinking, what am i doing here - i could DIE! The guys will hook you up and you take the long walk accross a shaky rope bridge that looks like it's going to fall or break at any point. By then, you are ready to dump a load of your
