The act of giving gifts is one of the most traditional and uplifting gestures we as humans can do. Sometimes though, it can be stressful and tinged with regret and that all too familiar panic buying. You know the feeling? You arrive home only to realise, you’ve bought the wrong thing entirely.

Fortunately, there is an easy solution at hand. Celestial Gift Experieces has made it their business to bring you uniquely crafted, once-in-a-life time gift ideas. Established in 2005, Celestial Gift Experiences are the premier gifting agents in South Africa. Each experience has been carefully researched and tried and tested, giving you peace of mind and comes with a Happiness Guarantee. What’s more, if you feel your recipient would prefer to elect their own experience for themselves, a user-friendly gift voucher option is available also.

Gifts for men can be notoriously dull, this is often why they have drawers full of solo, lonely single socks with no match in sight. Don’t fall into that trap again, the socks, undies, or tie. The Extreme Dune Thrasher Experience for Two is thrilling and can be shared with a best bud, father / son or colleague. In fact, just about anyone who loves excitement. The Dune Thrasher is an imported V8 high performance vehicle with 5.7 litre engine, independent air suspension and full spec racing seat belts. Tear up the sand dunes in Atlantis just 30 minutes from Cape Town where the scenery itself is breath-taking.

For a gift for husband, you can’t go wrong with the 5 x Golf Lessons with a PGA Instructor. This package is available either in Johannesburg or Cape Town. The lucky recipient will benefit from 5 private 30 minute coaching sessions. The coaching system applied here is used to train elite players as well as juniors, ensuring all golfers improve both performance and enjoyment of the game and is fully comprehensive.

The full Moon Ziplining with Game Drive, Bush BBQ and Overnight for Two in Cullinan is a top favourite gift for him. The beauty of this overnight package is you can both share in the experience together, combining romance and adventure. Situated in a picturesque miner’s village near Pretoria, begin with a game drive exploring lush bushveld, followed by a delicious bush braai and canopy tour of the Muningi Gorge. Professional guides will direct you between the four slides averaging eighty metres in height, totalling 1.5 kilometres. Speeds of up to ninety kilometres per hour have been clocked, now that’s impressive! Rest in luxury at the Cullinan Diamond Lodge for your well earned overnight stay.

For the nature enthusiast and for a completely altruistic experience the CSI Rhino Volunteer Protection package over three days is one of the most perfect of gift ideas. Located in the Limpopo Province this conservation programme aims to increase public awareness and protection of this magnificent creature. The majority of the farms have four of the big five on their land including lion, leopard and buffalo. This package is for one person, and may be sharing accommodation with another person. A single room upgrade is available upon request at time of booking. Camps are fully equipped with electricity and hot water and meals are included.
