Tourism signage going up in Richmond!

Richmond Tourism Organisation is pleased to see the first phase of our tourism signage project being implemented in partnership with Richmond Local Municipality.

New tourism member information boards are now in place along the R56, showcasing local accommodation, attractions and tourism businesses, together with our website richmondtourism.org.za.

Our Welcome to Richmond / Hambani Kahle entrance signage has also been installed, giving visitors a much-needed Richmond Tourism welcome as they enter and leave our town.

Thank you to Richmond Municipality KZN supporting the implementation of this phase of the tourism signage programme.

We look forward to the completion of the remaining tourism signage identified through the RTO tourism development programme, which will further improve visitor navigation and connectivity between Richmond's tourism businesses and attractions.

Discover Richmond – The hidden gem you'll never forget.

Eco friendly at its best👌💚

The Duma Manzi Green Fact File 🌿

💧Every effort is made to conserve water – our showers are fitted with water reducers, reducing water flow from 15 litres per minute to 9 litres per minute.
💧Our toilets are filled with an innovative water saving mechanism of water bottles in the cistern which has reduced the water usage by a third when flushing toilets.
💧Our pools are part of a pilot project by Eskom and use an ozone aerator – a first in South Africa to be tested at Duma Manzi Eco-Lodge & Spa.
💧We are responsible for pumping water out of the river and purifying it in our on-site purification system, as well as installation of waste treatment facility.
💧100% of all cleaning supplies are non-toxic and biodegradable.
💧We make use of water conscious laundry programmes, whereby guests have their linens changed every 3 days as opposed to daily.
💧Organic gardening practises in the reserve grounds (non- use of non-organic pesticides, herbicides, and fertilizers).
💧Grey water is pumped into holding tanks and re-purified for use in irrigation of the reserve plants.
