Lesedi Multi Cultural Village is set amongst the pristine bushveld and rocky hills less than an hour’s drive north of Johannesburg. Be part of traditional Africa for just a short while.

Situated at Lesedi are four traditional homesteads – The Zulus with their fighting sticks and cozy beehive huts, The Xhosa with their perfectly thatched rondawels and distinctive white blankets, the rhythmic drums and whistles of The Pedi tribe and the conical straw hats and thick, colored blankets of The Basotho.
