Explore the subtropical farming area

 

Are you on holiday near Letsitele?

If you are staying in Tzaneen or Hoedspruit, this unique bike ride is perfect for you!

 

We will collect you at your accommodation and transport you to the start of our tour outside Letsitele. 

The ride will start with a cycle to a citrus packhouse (if it is packing season) to experience the working of citrus farming.

Letsitele is well-known for the vast amounts of citrus produced and exported.

From the packhouse we will continue through Orange tree groves along the canal to the Kaross embroidery.

Kaross was started by Irma van Rooyen to create opportunities for rural women to make a living through their embroidery skills.

Indulge yourself in the beauty of the embroidery followed by a typical South African lunch.

After lunch, we will take you back to your accommodation.
