  • North-West Province
    © Lonely Planet Publications 509 North-West Province From safaris to slots, the pursuit of pleasure is paramount in the North-West Province. And with the top three reasons to visit less than a six-hour drive from Johannesburg, this region is more than fun. It’s convenient. Gambling is the name of the game here, although not always in the traditional sense. Place your luck in a knowledgeable ranger’s hands at Madikwe Game Reserve and bet on how many lions he’ll spot on the sunrise wildlife drive. You have to stay to play at this exclusive reserve on the edge of the Kalahari, and the lodges here will be a splurge for many. But for that once-in-a-lifetime, romantic Out of Africa–style safari experience, South Africa’s fourth-largest reserve can’t be beat. If you’d rather spot the Big Five without professional help, do a self-drive safari in Pi- lanesberg National Park. The most accessible park in the country is cheaper than Madikwe, and still has 7000 animals packed into its extinct volcano confines. Plus it’s less than three hours’ drive from Jo’burg. When you’ve had your fill betting on finding rhino, switch to cards at the opulent Sun City casino complex down the road. The final component of the province’s big attraction trifecta is the southern hemisphere’s answer to Las Vegas: a shame- lessly gaudy, unabashedly kitsch and downright delicious place to pass an afternoon. Madikwe, Pilanesberg and Sun City may be the North-West Province’s heavyweight at- tractions, but there are more here than the province’s ‘Big Three’.

  • Pro-Poor Tourism Facilitation at Sun City
    Summary: PPT facilitation at Sun City Summary of initial scoping report INTRODUCTION The aim of the Pro-Poor Tourism (PPT) Pilots project is for the PPT team and site partners to identify and implement linkages that bring benefits to poor people, and make business sense to the operator. The initial (‘scoping’) stage of PPT facilitation involves understanding the current linkages between the tourism company and local (poor) stakeholders, and identifying the needs and assets of the company and local stakeholders. Building on this, the next key step is to identify the type of linkage or linkages that should be developed and with which local partners. From there, PPT facilitation supports the partnership through stages - from making joint commitments into implementation. Initial scoping reports have been prepared for each partner site by compiling information gathered during 20031, in order to provide background information for prioritisation and implementation of PPT actions. These cover 1. stakeholder analysis (identification of needs and assets of company and community); 2. assessment of existing linkages between stakeholders; 3. discussion of potential linkages. This report is a summary of the full scoping report (which is available on request). What is PPT facilitation? PPT facilitation is a service provided to a tourism company and its local stakeholders, to assist in building linkage(s) between them. The support facilitates the process of developing a joint vision, exploring mutually beneficial linkages, planning tasks, and achieving successful implementation. The facilitation format is flexible but provides a generic tool that will be adapted to each site. It can be applied to the creation of a very specific linkage concerning one product, or to building a long-lasting partnership with many components.
