What To Expect

We will arrive here at around 11am-12pm. Situated inside the Bothongo Rhino and Lion Nature Reserve the Wonder Caves are a site to behold and are our first stop into this fully packed day tour. The Wonder Caves are said to have been discovered by Italian miners in 1898 where they mined out approximately 15% from the formation and brought them to the surface. Mining was stopped in 1902 due to the outbreak of war and low productivity. This is the 3rd largest chamber is South Africa, the largest being Cango Caves and second largest Sudwala Caves. The cave is entered by going down 87 stairs at a 45 degrees angle dropping 22 meters below the surface. You will then go down an elevator with a drop of a further 18 meters into the cave. The Wonder Cave is said to be UNESCO World Heritage Site and is a Natural Wonder dating back to 5-10 million years old

Our Guide Gabriel picked us up from Indaba and took us on a tour of the Rhino & Lion reserve and took us to the wonder cave. We had lots of lovely talks about the history, politics and economy of South Africa. We booked via Get Your Guide and enjoyed our last day of our holiday at the park.
Very cool and quiet experience!

I went to Johannesburg for very short time and I have half day free, this tour allowed me to enjoy the Wonder Cave and the natural reserve. They picked me up at the hotel at 10am and I was back around 3:40pm. Because no one else booked the tour on that day the transfer to the reserve end up being just for me; if you are a women travelling alone and would like to experience a safari day I’d recommend the company, they were attentive and made sure I had a great experience. The wonder cave is unique and worth visiting.
Wonderful tour, excellent guide

Gorgeous views and sunshine. Friendly, helpful and knowledgeable tour guides. I didn’t expect to see so many animals as we saw. And the cave- it’s really a wonder cave, full of evolutionary magic. Special thanks to the Moja Tours guide Mr Marvin, who took me to that tour. He provided extra knowledges and kindness to make the day memorable.
