This was my favourite and yet least favourite part of my Grootbos visit. How can it be both? I’m sure you are wondering…..
Our tour guide was Bongani, and we did the safari in the morning just after breakfast. This was my first time going through a flower safari, I didn’t even know there was such a thing before. There’s a first time for everything! The safari gets you to admire nature in a visual sense and aromatic scents. The plants are not only beautiful to look at but it gives one an opportunity to learn the different types.
We got to stop and Bongani set up a picnic where juice and homemade cookies were on offer.
As I mentioned before, the ride is quite bumpy. I had my phone in pocket during the ride and somehow it got out. I found myself without a phone. That was the least favourite part of the safari but it was my fault.
