We really enjoyed our visit to Acrobranch. My sons enjoyed climbing around on the different obstacle courses they have in the trees. The big zip line was an absolute hit with dad & the kids despite them being a little nervous. The boys enjoyed the other 4 zip lines but the big zip was the winner hands down. Its a wonderful outdoor adventure that keeps everyone entertained for hours and well worth the price. The staff were fantastic and have loads of patience with the kids, big and small. Remember the park is a cash free zone so pay online when booking or take your bank card. We will certainly be returning soon.

Been to Wild Waters more than once, and it's enjoyable everytime we visit. I like the picnic facilities provided, and the kids enjoy the waves everytime. Good place to spend quality time with family.

What a wow!!! I had my child's birthday at Happy Island on the 30th March 2019 and we were hosted by Cedric. He is an excellent host and he really made us feel at home. We could ask him for anything (from ordering food to bringing us a knife to cut the birthday cake) he never had any issues. He made sure we had everything we wanted. We were treated like royals. We will definitely come back to Happy Island it's the best place in South Africa. The kids can't stop talking about my daughter's party - they had so much fun. The nicest thing is that they could swim and enjoy the water slides the whole day. The sea waves were more fascinating for them than anything in the world. Keep up the good work Cedric you are an absolute STAR!!!

At first I thought It was a lie, that there is never a place like that in Mogale City. I had to pack my travelling bag and hit the road to prove myself. My mind was blown away by the beauty of the place. I mean the way they built the place is like a dream. The island is indeed a treasure within the borders of Mogale City. What I love about the destination is the fact that it is within the Cradle of Humankind, then this makes the whole tour complete, as this can be a last stop of the tour if started at Maropeng, proceed to Sterkfontein Caves, then head to Rhino and Lion Nature Reserve then lastly to Happy Island Waterworld. When I was approached to be their WOM (Word Of Mouth) I could not believe it, I then started right away. Mobilizing for them. Since then the place became my home . I fully recommend the place for friends and family. I mean the place has a room for everything and can accommodate anyone. Great environment, food, beautiful view I mean it is worth been added to the bucket loist of travellers.
