Interesting place to visit. We mailed our postcards here. You can buy them and the postage stamps in their souvenir shop
I really enjoy it every time that I come here😊 I always learn something new or see something different than I used to. The post office tree is absolutely beautiful and I love the story and history behind the shoe. If youre a geocacher or someone that loves history then this is the place for you. I think this shoe inspired the whole geocaching thing and its so cool because I live in Mossel Bay. I wish they had the actual shoe tho. Highly recommend visiting
The history is amazing! Just think its over 500years ago and you can stand exactly where Dias stood! Almost the same view he had! With a replica ship close by you can just experience the adventure and excitement!Have a walk around and vist the shell museum. Have a bit to eat and buy a gift !
Well laid out, informative and a lovely garden. A jewel.
Now it makes you wonder what was that tree after over there to grow in such a manner....🤭
Near bortlomeou museum. Historic importance . Lots of greenery scenic views of mossel bay town
The history behind it. Way of communicating. We have much to learn.
Historical. But new history is also forced down as well. So be educational to your kids as the crimes of the past is put to the front as very important and the line of discrimination can very easily be crossed.
Quite interesting thing to visit. The 500 year old milkwood tree is huge, about 40 metres wide - we thought we were looking at a whole lot of bush then realised it is all one tree! Small entrance fee, I think it was R15, and lots of marine related stuff to see.
One of best atttraction place in our town,nice restaurants,hotel rooms,conference hall,nice big garden with sprawling green lawns overlooking beautiful Santos beach...
This is a must see tourist attraction, especially if youre a botanical o marine person.
Learnt a lot with a beautiful garden. Upkeep and funds would help this place a lot.
Very interesting. Worth the time to see the tree and all the other interesting things on display.
Excellent diaz museum. the post offoce tree itself is rather plain. inside you cam go inside the boat and a amazing range of old collections
Great that the tree is still there. Worth a visit
Nothing much exciting.. Museum is good
Good memories. Always nice to visit
My granddaughter enjoyed the boat and shells but not much else at museum. The garden tree markings are not good as they do not indicate plants well as when plant dies out and other scrub pops up wrong signage.
Amazing to see the replica of Bartholomew Diazs ship.
South Africas first post office can found under this 500+ year old tree. When posting your mail / postcard here, you get a special frank on your letter!Surprise your friends and loved ones with a letter!
I love our countrys history ! For the R20 entrance you really get youre moneys worth ! Cute aquarium and nice museum !
Very interesting and well looked after. 500 years and older!!!!!
Well worth visiting this part of our history. Not quite what one expects and rather tucked away, but worth the stop. And the view of Mossel Bay bay on the way in is stunning as well.
Nice Museum with lots to see. The Karveel ship is something special. (You can get on it and explore).
This is interesting although just worth a quick visit while visiting the Diaz museum. Not worth a special trip on its own
This may or may not be the actual tree, so says the sign at the tree. Even if it is there really isnt much to see. There are other older or larger trees around. Very skipable.
The historic value of the museums is thorough and include other explorers and detail such as Vasco da Gama and the development of ships throughout the centuries. There is also a shell museum where different crustaceans are displayed and described.
Amazing to see something living that is 500 years old.
Lovely when all put together.Lots of informationAll a little run downToilets absolute disaster. Shows the general disrespect for maintenance
Much more to see than just a tree. Visit the shell museum and touch the live seastars and crabs!
There isnt too much info at the venue except a legendary story of a letter beibg posted at this tree. I have taken groups to this venue and it seems that as a guest I was more informed about the scenery than the so called guides. If I had worked here I would have at least done some research on the surroundings (anyone can use the internet nowadays!) There is even free wi fi spots in town so all you need is a wi fi capable device and there you go! Other that that the area is maintained pretty well.
Incredible..post deliveries those days.
Very interesting to see history in real life
Amazing to have this piece of history still alive and growing
Lovely to hear the history but not much to see...
Somebody needs to invest some time and money and get this historic place back to its former state. First time back in 5 years and was disappointed in how much the place has changed.
Total waste of my money and time. Its a tree, that for the first 10 minutes in the area thought was just a normal tree and not THE tree, nothing special about it.
The place is very dear to me as I went there for first time 25 years ago on my honeymoon
It was excellent. I will spend time there again.
Very informative. Fascinating Shell museum
Great to send a postcard. What an experience again
Great Amount of history is tied to this tree. Grab hold of the opportunity to take a picture with history!
Very informative. Very helpful and friendly staff.
Wanted to visit but people were on stay away
Very interesting to revisit the History of Mossel Bay.
Large museum compared to size of town
This is where the first travelers left a shoe with a letter in, tied to a branch of this Milkwood tree 500 years ago.
Interesting museum complex around this tree
Fascinating storie, kept nice and clean
History Milkwood tree at the Mossel Bay museum.
