It was a big evening for Heia Safari Ranch at the recent West Rand Tourism Awards gala event at Silverstar Casino. Heia Safari Ranch was established in 1970 and was one of the first tourist properties in the Muldersdrift area. Heia will be celebrating it’s 40th year in the tourist industry in 2010, certainly an excellent achievement by any standard.
Although the property has remained almost the same, Lake Heritage and the Franz Richter Dam Wall were completed in 2006. The dam wall is the largest hand-built stone dam in the world. The lake has been declared the “cleanest dam in Gauteng” and will once again host the largest inland swim in Jan 2010.
Against this background the awards that Gaby Burgmer and her daughter Bianca walked away with at the ceremony are a true testament to their ongoing commitment to service excellence.
”I would like to dedicate these awards to my father, who dedicated his life promoting tourism in this area” said Burgmer after receiving her final award.
Heia Safari Ranch won the following awards:
1] Unique Leisure experience award
2] Special award for commitment to tourism
3] Finalist for “Al fresco” restaurant
4] Winner established hotel in the 3 star category
Both mother and daughter, together with their dedicated and committed staff have pledged to continue to make Heia Safari Ranch an excellent tourist destination for both local and international travellers.
