Enjoy the splendour of the third largest Canyon in the world. Unquestionably being the largest ‘green canyon’ due to its lush Subtropical foliage. An interpretation tour by a tour guide will take you to the you to the rare living Kadishi Tufa waterfall and the Three Rondawels. An abundance of wildlife will keep you distracted while learning more about the natural history of the Blyde Canyon.
The Blyde River canyon supports large diversity of life, including numerous fish and antelope species as well as Hippos and Crocodiles, primate species and a diversity of birdlife such as the African Fish Eagle, African Finfoot and much more.
Possibly the best view in the whole of the Blyde River Canyon is of the “Three Rondavels”, huge, round rocks, thought to be reminiscent of the houses or huts of the indigenous people, known as rondavels. The Canyon is famous for the Kadishi Tufa waterfall. At 200m (around 660 feet) in height it is the second tallest Tufa waterfall on earth. In the case of the Kadishi Tufa fall, the formation that has been produced strikingly resembles a face which is crying profusely, and is thus sometimes known as the weeping face of nature.

We really enjoyed the Blyde River Canyon Boat Cruise. It was a wonderful experience from start to finish, and the scenery was absolutely beautiful. Our skipper was very friendly and helpful. He took the time to show us all the interesting sights along the way and explained everything to us. He made the trip enjoyable, relaxing and very interesting. We had such a lovely time and would definitely recommend this boat cruise to anyone visiting the area. Thank you for a wonderful and memorable experience! Our skipper was the big boat ????? - Hester

A superb experience. Well worth the money spent. Friendly and knowledgeable guide. - Karen
The booking procedure and the trip itself went very smoothly. We were staying in Graskop so it involved a four-hour round trip (by car). Unfortunately, shortly before we arrived at the park gate we received a message to say the ride had been cancelled owing to strong wind. This possibility needs to be kept in mind. Fortunately, we had a day spare. So we made the trip again the following day! But we were not disappointed in any sense. We really enjoyed seeing the canyon from the boat and felt it was worth all the effort. - Kenneth
