Grande prison de Drakenstein
Arrêt à : Prison de Groot Drakenstein (prison Victor Verster)
Sur le chemin du retour vers Le Cap, nous nous arrêterons environ 10 minutes à la prison de Groot Drakenstein, où Nelson Mandela a passé les deux dernières années de ses 27 ans d’emprisonnement. Contrairement aux prisons de haute sécurité précédentes, celle-ci servait de centre de transition pour les prisonniers politiques en voie de libération.
Vous aurez l’occasion de prendre des photos à côté de l’emblématique statue de bronze grandeur nature de Mandela, le poing levé, symbole d’espoir, de dignité et de liberté. Elle marque l’endroit même où il a été libéré le 11 février 1990.

Nous poursuivrons ensuite le trajet d’environ 1 heure et 15 minutes jusqu’au Cap, où vous serez déposés à votre hôtel, concluant ainsi votre journée en beauté.
