One of our Destination Experts recently experienced the beauty of Kagga Kamma Eco-Lodge & Spa tucked away in the heart of the Cederberg, as part of a travel trade visit hosted by TPF Hospitality. 🌿

Surrounded by extraordinary rock formations and breathtaking landscapes, Kagga Kamma offers a unique opportunity to slow down, reconnect with nature and appreciate the beauty of the African wilderness.

From scenic nature drives and exploring the reserve's remarkable surroundings to stargazing beneath the vast night sky, the experience offered a wonderful insight into what makes this destination so special. One of the most memorable moments was viewing Saturn and its beautiful rings through a telescope! 🪐✨

Beyond discovering the destination, the visit was also a valuable opportunity to strengthen partnerships, exchange destination knowledge and experience first-hand what Kagga Kamma has to offer travellers.

A wonderful few days of discovery, meaningful connections and unforgettable experiences in the Cederberg. 💚

Our team recently had the opportunity to experience a Cape Malay cooking class at Faeeza’s Home Kitchen, where food, culture and tradition come together. 💛

We rolled and folded our own samoosas, made chilli bites, enjoyed koeksisters, and learned more about the flavours and traditions behind Cape Malay cooking. 👩‍🍳

Faeeza’s love for cooking is rooted in growing up in Bo-Kaap, surrounded by the Cape Malay dishes her mother prepared. Today, she shares that passion with visitors from around the world through her cooking experiences.

And after all the cooking? We had the pleasure of sitting down together and enjoying everything we had made. 😋

Thank you to Faeeza for welcoming us into her kitchen and sharing a taste of Bo-Kaap with us! 💛
