    What a lovely place. This is a very good place to take your children to. You're pay at the gate as you enter. All rides are free. Children really enjoyed it here. Only downside is that under 3 is difficult to get rides. They have areas to play. Good food sold here. Not cheap food.

    What an awesome experience! The kids absolutely loved this place. It kept them busy for hours. The entrance fee was not bad considering all the rides the kids have access to. There are plenty of shade and tables to sit while watching the kids play. We had the beef burgers which was very nice and the hot dogs were perfect for the kids. Will definitely recommend this place and go back again!

    It's an amazing place for kids. It's like heaven for kids. If you thinking of having a party for your child thus is the place or just a day out with the kids this is also the place to be. If SA Rugby Team captain brings his kids here it must be an amazing place.

    Bugz Play Park in Cape Town offers a vibrant playground for little wildlings, catering to a range of ages and interests. While not the most expansive facility, its clever layout and diverse activities pack a punch for a few hours of energetic fun. Crawly Critters to Climbing Crews: For toddlers, the dedicated soft play area is a safe haven of colorful shapes and textures to explore. Older adventurers can tackle the jungle gyms, rope bridges, and slides, each offering varying levels of challenge and thrill. The park also boasts a ball pit, a mini-soccer field, and a designated arts and crafts corner for quieter moments. Fueling the Fun: Parents can refuel at the on-site cafe while keeping an eye on the action through large windows. The menu offers a selection of snacks and drinks, including kid-friendly options and healthy choices. Birthday Bonanza: Bugz Play Park shines when it comes to birthday celebrations. Themed party rooms and packages cater to different interests, from pirate adventures to fairy tea parties. The friendly staff handles the setup and decorations, allowing parents to relax and enjoy the festivities. Verdict: Bugz Play Park provides a reliable and engaging option for a fun-filled day out with little ones. While the overall space might feel a tad compact, the variety of activities and dedicated party options make it a solid choice for active families.

    This is a perfect place to take the kids. They many fun activities that children love, it is a family friendly environment and you can book to have your child's birthday there. Note that there is not many activities for adults, so it might not suit you if you want a place with adult games. The staff is very friendly and helpful. You can grab food inside but you are only limited to hot chips , burger or hotdogs. It was not clear whether one can bring their own food however bags do get searched as you enter.

    We've been frequenting Bugz Playpark since 2018 and our girls love it. In 2019, we also bought the annual passes and went when we could despite it being an hour's drive away for us. Going again last week brought back happy memories. Kudos to the management and maintenance team as the equipment are still functioning well (just older), the park is clean, the trees have grown nicely and provided nice shade. The indoor play area is still well set up and lovely to see. Fun activities for children under 12 years old, nice seating around the park, ample shade, pleasant music in the background and most of all, happy children (most of the time). Recommended!!

    An excellent venue to use for your child's birthday. Lots to do. Lots to see. Just make sure that you keep a close watch on your child_ can very easily stray off.

  • 3/5 A D. 1 year ago on Google
    Family visit from USA plus local friends. Very cute park. Food took a very long time. Maintenance is needed/upgrades. Staff was very nice. One complaint is that we didn't know the closed so early (4pm). We arrived at 3, but we had a large group of kids 8 and 2 adults and didn't want to disappoint. They charged us the full price for 1 hour for kids to play. I dont think that was fair at all. In USA they reduce the rate after certain hours.

    Took my kids to Bugz Playpark and they absolutely loved it they had a little petting zoo that the kids loved. And they enjoyed the train ride getting to see the park as they go around. They have this cute sections for kiddies parties. Water park for those hot sunny days. Your kids will be fully entertained for as long as you are there. Staff are super friendly and helpful. My kids absolutely enjoyed it and definately wants to go back again. Food is halaal.

    Took my 4 year old to go visit Bugz Playpark in Joostenberg Vlakte,and what an amazing experience for the whole family to have fun at from rides outside like “Swing Horses” and “Toddler Tractors” and even a “Zippy Slide” and “Pedal Bikes” to the biggest jungle gym for the toddlers to have fun on to water activities “Rowing Boats” and even a little worm train for the kiddies and loads more that you can view on their website as they also have a indoor play area with slides and many more for the cold and windy days and even a little petting Zoo where the little ones can pet the little animals – You can also host parties at the venue as they have mutable themed little venues for the parties like a “Barbie Party” or “Ballet Party” or “Dinosaur Party” and loads more to choose from and the party packs include your little station to be decorated and party packs for the kiddies and a Lunch and park admission fee and Freebie rides all for around R 249.00 per child. And the staff is super friendly and helpful. The park is nice and clean and well maintained and the kitchen makes the best food I had a chicken wrap and it was absolutely amazing =) Worth the visit with your whole family

    The owner and her son were very attentive to customers. The set up of the place was very child and parent friendly. Places for parents to sit in shade and watch their kids. Lots of trees. Plenty of activities. Simple food: hotdogs, boerewors rolls and chicken strips. General stuff like sodas and sweets.

    This is such a fun play place for kids under the age of 12! They have various play areas with different activities. Some indoors and some outdoors. They have a lovely shaded water play area safe enough for even toddlers to enjoy. There are a couple of eateries but the menus are limited to fries, snacks of donuts. The drinks menu is more expensive with delicious milk shakes and slushes perfect for a hot day. Most of the park is shaded and there are quite a few seating areas or spots to throw down a picnic blanket. It is most definitely stroller and wheelchair friendly. There are quite a few private party areas that are themed and decorated. All in all it provides a lovely fun day out for kiddies.

    Excellent value for money! My kids are 6 and 8 and played for 5 hours!! Unlimited rides, enjoyable childrens' music, clean (incl bathrooms), good value for money food (and freshly made), helpfull and friendly staff. I will definity come again! And bring a friend or two. Also caters for birthday parties! That two is well priced. Enough shade and benches and tables and chairs for the adults to sit and relax. Plus next to a beautiful nursery if you want to go and enjoy nature.

    It's a day of fun for all kids under 12. Rides, slides, swings, animals and water fun. Restaurant doesn't have a variety of food but the kids seem to be happy with a hotdog and chips. Also a small petting corner. Go early, it gets busy.

  • 4/5 Safwaan D. 2 months ago on Google • 8 reviews New
    Lovely kids play park. Lots of fun rides and activities. Ideal for toddlers aged 3 and up. Food and snacks can be bought at the park. Gets really hot on summer days so pack in sun cream!

    It was super busy during the holiday season, and queues were long as can be expected. Loved that they had mist sprayers all over the place to help with the heat and everywhere was very clean

    We had so much fun! Loads of different areas to play. Clean and secure. Baby changing stations in the bathrooms. Big indoor play area for the under 2 age group. Will visit again!

    I've visited this establishment 3 times and each time it seemed to improve. It was clean, well staffed and the rides were well maintained from what I could tell. The environment is spacious, and there are a variety of places to set up for the day. The food and beverage outlets cater to most cravings and are well stocked. Convenient for parents, fun for the kids.

    Bugz Playpark is great for kids. The little ones had loads of fun. I like that you have both indoor and outdoor game areas.

  • 4/5 Tintininacan 1 year ago on Google
    This was a great family day out. Rides were super. Lots do do for the kids. Only gripe i have is the food was very poor. I have many Halaal friends and the selection and quality of food was aweful. It seems you are forced to purchase from their restaurant as our bags were searched for food items. I am a person who is careful what i eat, so the foods on offer were not suitable for meor our grand kids

  • 4/5 Simone S. 1 year ago on Google
    My kids absolutely loved it here. They really do cater for all ages. We planned to go for only a few hours but ended up spending the whole day here. I would give 5 stars, but their cafe really needs work. The food is way too overpriced for what they offer.

  • 5/5 Kimberleigh Chante J. 1 year ago on Google
    Ampful parking. Clean bathrooms. Alot of activities for kids to do and parents can join in on the fun. My nephew really enjoyed his time here. Very affordable. Staff super friendly. Worth the drive and time. Perfect for families and outings. You could actually spend all day here. Seats everywhere for parents to relax and eat.

  • 5/5 Clint Gary B. 1 year ago on Google
    A wonderful place for the whole family, young and old. I liked the setting, staff were very friendly and helpful. There are many things to do and places to explore, my kids loved their time in the park.

    I would love to thank Bugz Play park for making my son's birthday one truly to remember.The kids had loads of fun and even the adult's too.And the food was exceptional especially those chicken strips will be coming back for those 😁Keep living the BUGZ life 😄and the great work.will definitely be coming again

  • 4/5 Charlene H. 2 years ago on Google
    Absolutely love this place - it features everything that kids love - from train rides to inflatable waterslides, jungle gyms, mud kitchens, rowboats, pedal cars, a huge treehouse and even an animal petting zoo! The soft serve parlour sells the most delicious milkshakes, ice creams & doughnuts (a must try!) Only downside for us was that they've changed their fee structure and now charge a VIP day pass fee of R150 for ALL children aged 3 to 12 years (previously R45 per child!), regardless of whether the child will be making use of the rides (there is plenty for them to do and enjoy free of charge inside, other than the rides) and regardless of you arriving only an hour before closing time (which does not allow you enough time to queue for any rides). Rides close at 15:30 sharp and the park closes for the day at 16:00.

    Best experience ever for the kids. The Beef burger 🍔 was good.. Unathi from the kitchen was a joy, happy funny lady. Thank you.. To many more pleasant visits🎊🎉. Would have given a five, if you guys close at 5pm, at least.😊

  • 5/5 Karma69 1 year ago on Google
    Disneyland for my toddler! Loved his day here, and left exhausted and ready for a nap 5 hours after we arrived!! Safe and secure, where one can relax and either watch or engage in activities with your little ones! Great for Father & Son time on a Saturday off. Will be back soon!

    Great place for kids to have fun, also great for functions for kids, really enjoyed seeing my kids and other kids having fun

  • 2/5 Carlo L. 2 years ago on Google
    This is truly a place for children! We were 2 families that visited the park. The kids did enjoy themselves they were disappointed with the swimming arrangements or lack there off. They did get by with the water slide and the other activities that was on offer. The food was surprisingly good and at an affordable price. The drinks unfortunately was super expensive after it is so hot within the facility. I feel the water prices are to much after paying R150 per child x3 and 4 adults for R50 each I thought they could compromise with the water prices as it is so extremely hot wothin the facility. There isn't much to do or hangout spots for grownups and that was a bummer for me personally. I know, I know you bring your kid or kids to have fun but atleast cater for grown-ups aswell. Overall it was a good experience for the kids, but won't be going back anytime soon as it isn't parent friendly.

  • 4/5 Linette Kay-Oakley W. 2 years ago on Google
    Bugz was very enjoyable especially with two lively todler boys. They enjoyed the water features and all the sand pits alot, the food was nice enough but the best part was definitely the soft doughnuts and ice cold sluchpuppies. Over all a great place to entertain kids.

  • 5/5 Arddyn P. 2 years ago on Google
