Experience the awe of standing at the Point of Human Origins. Visit this world renowned archaeological site with early evidence for modern human behaviour.

Our tour is a dual journey – one in space and time, and one within. Our main goals are to create awareness of the original human design, to awaken the human spirit, and to inspire people to discover themselves and to change the way they behave towards all life on earth.

Please note that ALL tours and cave visits by appointment only. The sites are not open to the public.

Fitness level – The only access is via a series of steep wooden stairways and boardwalks (some 200 stairs each way). The climb back up can be taxing unless you’re mildly fit.
