Planning a bachelor or bachelorette party in South Africa doesn’t have to be stressful or expensive! This party is one of the highly anticipated parts of the wedding celebrations. Which is a welcomed break from the wedding planning stress!
Why not do something different with the bride or groom-to-be? And arrange an adventure-packed day for them with their friend group! Here are some different and exciting activity ideas in South Africa for the big send-off:
Paintball
Paintball is the perfect activity for a group of friends who want to use the groom-to-be as target practice! Offering a variety of games such as ‘capture the flag’ and ‘King of the Hill’. This strategic game is sure to be a hit with the groom and your friends!
Paintball Locations: Hazyview, Paarl, Wilderness, Plettenberg Bay, and Port Elizabeth.
Horse Riding
For the equine lover, a leisurely trot through forests, farmlands, and bushveld, is a treat! Kurland Park Horse Trails located in Plettenberg Bay offers a ‘Ride, Wine, and Dine’ trail. This trail ride includes a meander to the Newstead Lund Family Vineyards, to enjoy a tapas lunch and wine tasting. Upgrade to the ‘Wine Route and Pamper’ package that includes a massage at Kurland Spa – bliss for the bride-to-be!
