ORLANDO TOWERS

WE MAY HAVE TAKEN IT TOO FAR WITH THIS ONE....but its 100% the one thing that has to be in your TOP 10 on your BUCKET LIST.

In FITNESS TRAINING & ACTIVITIES this month we decided not to go with the norm, as we wanted to focus on EXERCISE disguised as REALLY FUN DAYS OUT!!! You know, where you are having so much fun and are so distracted that you don't realise how much energy you've burnt, or how many calories you've lost, and where you wake up the next day and think , 'OMG, what did I do that I am so stiff???!!!"

That, that's what we are going for, exercise disguised as fun, shouldn't it always be...?! 

Please meet your ultimate challenge...
 
This is one serious full-on day outing that will leave you breathless, tired, exhilarated, and fully charged to take on life and anything it throws at you, bugger lemons, bring me something more hard-core...LIKE THROW BUSES AT ME!!! 

We did this, and we LOVE IT. 

The ORLANDO TOWERS VERTICAL ADVENTURE CENTRE was the brain child of Rob Woods, back in 2001.Now owned and managed by NICO MYBURG who has 20 years on extreme sports experience, motivated by introducing people to the world of adrenaline. 

They have taken the cooling towers in SOWETO and made them into the best playground you'll ever find, its amazing what they have brought to this game, and its includes, Bungee Jumping (100m) between the towers, the worlds highest SCAD Freefall, in the towers from 70m up, the SWING in between the towers, the ABSEILING or RAP-JUMPING down the outside of the towers, to the WALL-CLIMBING up the towers, and they even added PAINT-BALLING....its a full-day, BUT WORTH EVERY BIT OF FEAR YOU HAVE WHEN YOU ARRIVE....it becomes full-on ADRENALINE PUMPING POINT-PROVING, LIFE CHANGING, MIND-ALTERING FUN....oh, and there's BASE JUMPING, just because, why not?!

At the end of a hellish day, there is an awesome restaurant aclled CHAF POZI, its a Shisa Nyama Restaurant & Shebeen with the best AFRICAN BRAAI styled food, entertainment and some of the best DJ's you've heard in a long time. (Maybe we enjoyed that part because we could drink afterwards.) But that was the cherry on the cake, didn't expect to want to stay into the late evening.

Seriously, do yourself a favour, go check out orlandotowers.co.za, you may be scared, but you will never ever regret it...DO IT!!!
