Grootbos Foundation Hospitality Students Explore Babylonstoren

Last week, our dedicated Hospitality students had the incredible opportunity to visit Babylonstoren, one of South Africa’s premier 5-star tourism destinations.

While their mentored practicals are primarily held at Grootbos Lodge, this field trip provided them with invaluable insights into the operations and excellence of another top-tier establishment.

Experiencing the inner workings of Babylonstoren not only broadened their horizons but also enriched their learnership year, offering them fresh perspectives and inspirations to bring back to Grootbos.

Thank you to Babylonstoren for hosting and contributing to the growth of our future hospitality leaders!
