Overview

A firm favourite among visitors and locals alike, South Africa’s famed Garden Route offers a generous dose of the great outdoors, where nature and adventure combine in one perfect playground. Country roads perfectly frame both the rolling farmlands and endless flora and fauna. The landscape dramatically changes; from wine farms to untamed wilderness, Tsitsikamma forest to mountain ranges – as the kilometres pass.

There’s optional bungy jumping and even waterfall ziplining for the thrill-seekers and beachtime or a quick swim in the warm waters of the Indian Ocean for the nature-lovers. Add in hiking in Tsitsikamma National Park, the sounds of silence in Cango limestone caves and prime game viewing at Addo Elephant National Park, home to the densest population of wild elephants on the planet. Plus, you’ll come nose-to-beak with the planet’s largest birds in the feather capital of the world - Oudtshoorn, and observe the biggest land mammals on the planet in the Klein Karoo. Learn to surf or sandboard while visiting some of the world's top-rated beaches and cruise down the picturesque Route 62.

One epic road trip awaits..

Frequently asked questions

Pickup / Drop-off time guidelines?

Early morning pick up from your accommodation in Cape Town CBD or Stellenbosch is usually between 6 to 7am, subject to traffic and your specific address. You can receive your exact pickup time for your exact pickup address the afternoon before the tour. Return times after tours can range from very late afternoon to evening, and for multi-day group tours it usually vary between +/- 7pm to 10pm subject to traffic, weather or how long the group spend at stops during the day. Small group tours can't offer exact start or end times as it all is relative to each person in the group's pickup or drop-off addresses, season and possible road delays. Please do not make any scheduled arrangements (especially flights) for the first or last day of the tour.

If I do not bungy jump, what is the alternative options?

Some thrill seekers choose to bungy and others love to watch their friends soar from the highest bungy bridge in the world, but we understand it’s not for everyone. There are other also another option available which your guide will chat through with you on tour. You can head out on a short walk in the forest to explore the region under the canopy of Tsitsikamma’s famous forested region.

I’m travelling on my own, will I meet people?

We welcome solo travellers. Our tours generally range from four to 12 people per tour. It’s this small group size that gives our tours the personal touch and allows guests to mingle if they chose to.

How safe are safari game drives?

You will be required to sign a disclaimer before entering a National Park or Private game reserve - which is fairly standard in South Africa – but rest assured, safety is paramount and your guides will make sure you are well looked after.

Inside your safari vehicle, your guide will give further safety instruction. Please remember the animals in National Parks and Game Reserves are wild, so do not leave the vehicle, taunt animals with food or hang your head, arms and legs or other body parts out of the jeep or bus.
