Blyde Dam Boat Cruise - Pensioner

Swadini, Hoedspruit

Activity Description

Please note that this service and special price is only valid for pensioners

Blyde Canyon Safaris, together with the Moletele community, offer scenic boat trips on the Blyde Dam. This is your opportunity to see the famous Three Rondawels and the Blyde River Canyon from the angle it’s supposed to be seen: while you’re on the water, at the base of the towering mountains that form these breathtaking sights. Tick off those last couple of birds that have been eluding your bird list and enjoy seeing the hippo’s and crocodiles that make this dam their home.

We are passionate about nature and preserving the few untouched pieces that remain in South Africa. We aim to offer everyone the opportunity to experience the beauty that the Lowveld has to offer. We run several activities and excursions and through our sister company, Blyde Adventure Camp, adventure and leadership camps for large groups.

We offer daily trips at 9am, 11am, 1pm and 3pm. Join one of our trips or book the entire boat for yourself. Use our friendly online booking system on this website, or contact our office to make your booking.

Customer Reviews

Was a great day. Such a beautiful part of the world - Val


The Tour Guide was knowledgeable about the history of the Dam and the Flora and Fauna of the Area. The Speed of the Boat was perfect for Pensioner not fast .The View of the 3 roundavales was amazing - Archim


The boat trip was excellent. Guide was friendly, courteous and informative. He even took the trouble to talk to us when we moved to the upstairs viewing platform. I would highly recommend. - Mark


My wife and I booked pensioner rates for the trip and the cost was very good. The whole trip was excellent (apart from the two noisy women sitting behind us). The sightings of birds and animals was unexpectedly pleasing. The guide was superb - knowledgeable and personable. Thank you. - Glen


It was scenic. Although we did not saw any crocodile or hippo. Wheater was cold - Roelf
