A TREE TOP TANGO<br />
A visit to one of South <strong>Africa</strong>’s Canopy Tours promises an eco-adventure that<br />
is enough to give any thrill-seeker goose-bumps, while satisfying nature lovers<br />
at the same time. At each location, a system of platforms has been built high<br />
among the trees and linked by a series of cables slides. Here, tourists, nature<br />
lovers and outdoor adventure enthusiasts are guided through the heights of<br />
previously inaccessible natural marvels, without disturbing these pristine habitats.<br />
Professional, trained guides point out the highlights of the fauna and flora at each<br />
stop, making sure that even the tiniest detail is not missed. South <strong>Africa</strong> now<br />
boasts six Canopy Tour destinations. These include the very first site in <strong>Africa</strong>, in<br />
the Tsitsikamma Forest, as well as Karkloof, Magaliesberg, Magoebaskloof, the<br />
Drakensberg and now, Malolotja, Swaziland. For more information, visit<br />
