• Lesedi Cultural Village - Lesedi Cultural Village is one of the best tourist attractions in South Africa, allowing visitors to really explore the glorious diversity of the people of this land.

Set amid rocky hills and bushveld less than one hour’s drive from Johannesburg, and on the way to Sun City, Lesedi Cultural Village offers visitors a chance to encounter people of Zulu, Xhosa, Pedi, Ndebele and Basotho origin.

Each of these families lives here permanently, looking after cows, chickens and tourists, and tours through their homes offer interesting cross-cultural comparisons of the customs and social organization of the different cultures. If you’re staying overnight, you are welcomed by the family of the homestead in which you will be staying, and the head of the house then becomes your personal guide for the duration of your stay.

You’ll meet real people (not actors in fancy dress), enter their homes and listen to stories about their individual cultures and rituals of daily life.

Immerse yourself in the tales of our forefathers, observe our traditional dances, and participate to become a part of the South African Tribe. Lesedi – The Beacon of Illumination – is a diverse African community, an hour’s ride away from Pretoria and Johannesburg. This location vividly presents five of South Africa’s rural ethnic groups through its mock villages. You will be acquainted with the Zulu, Pedi, amaNdebele, Xhosa, and Sotho tribes, who theatrically showcase their longstanding cultural rituals. There are two performances daily at either 11.30 or 16.30. Delight in the traditional song and dance in the communal living area, known as the boma. You are welcome to stay for a meal after enjoying the spectacle, where you can savour a classic dish.
