You will also get to take in the amazing sights, sounds, tastes, and cultures of Cape Town city!
Highlights / Activities:
On day one of your 6 day tour, you’ll be picked up in George and enjoy a scenic drive along the Garden Route to Knysna. The drive offers stunning views of lush forests and the coastline, setting the tone for what’s to come. Once in Knysna, you’ll settle into your accommodation and have some free time to explore this laid-back town. Wander through the charming streets, take in the views of the lagoon, and maybe grab a bite at one of the local seafood spots. Whether you’re browsing the shops or just soaking in the relaxed vibe, Knysna is the perfect place to kick off your adventure.
Highlights/activities:
After breakfast, we’ll start with a visit to the iconic Knysna Heads. The views here are nothing short of spectacular, with the lagoon meeting the ocean, surrounded by towering cliffs. It’s a perfect spot to take a moment and enjoy the raw beauty of nature.
Next, we’ll head to Tsitsikamma National Park for a nature walk through the lush forest and along the rugged coastline. The park’s tranquility and incredible scenery make it a great place to reconnect with nature, and you’ll likely spot some of the local wildlife along the way.
Afterward, we’ll make our way to Bloukrans Bridge, where you’ll have the chance to experience one of the most thrilling spots in South Africa. For the adrenaline junkies, there’s the option to go bungee jumping, or perhaps ziplining across the gorge. If you’re not up for the adventure, don’t worry the views from the bridge are stunning, and it’s a great spot to just soak it all in.
To wrap up the day, you’ll board a sunset cruise on the Knysna Lagoon. As the sun sets behind the hills, you’ll cruise along the water, taking in the atmosphere and the beauty of Knysna from a completely different perspective. It’s the perfect way to unwind after a day of adventure.
Highlights/activities:
We leave the coastal beauty of Knysna behind and head inland to Oudtshoorn, nestled in the heart of the Klein Karoo. Our first stop will be the Cango Caves, where you’ll join a guided tour to explore these impressive limestone caves. The formations inside are incredible, and the guide will share fascinating insights into the history and geology of this natural wonder.
Afterward, we’ll visit an Ostrich Farm for a truly unique experience. You’ll get a close-up look at these magnificent birds, learn about their significance in the region, and see how they’re raised. You will have the opportunity to feed the birds in a unique way.
In the evening, we’ll head to Mooiplaas Guesthouse & Spa, a peaceful spot where you can unwind and relax. With the quiet Karoo landscape around you, it’s the perfect place to enjoy a spa treatment, take a leisurely stroll, or simply kick back and enjoy the calm after a day of exploration.
Highlights/activities:
On day four, we make our way from Knysna to Cape Town, stopping in Mossel Bay for lunch. It’s the perfect spot to stretch your legs, enjoy a bite to eat, and take in the coastal views. For those looking for a little more adventure, you can opt for a safari at Botlierskop Game Reserve. Here, you’ll have the chance to see some incredible wildlife, including the Big Five, in a stunning natural setting.
After the safari, we’ll continue our drive toward Cape Town, where you’ll settle into your accommodation. Whether you’re staying in the city center or closer to the coast, you’ll have time to relax and enjoy the evening, soaking in the vibrant atmosphere of Cape Town before the next part of your journey begins.
Highlights/activities
Today, we start with a visit to the famous Table Mountain. You’ll take the cable car to the top, where you’ll be greeted by breathtaking views of Cape Town, the sparkling coastline, and the mountains that surround the city. It’s a chance to take it all in whether you’re walking along the flat top, snapping photos, or simply enjoying the incredible landscape.
After soaking in the views, we’ll head out to the Cape Winelands for a day of wine tasting. Our first stop will be one of the area’s renowned wine estates, where you can enjoy a tasting of their finest wines. As you sip, you’ll hear about the history of winemaking in this region and what makes the local wines so special.
Next, we’ll visit another beautiful wine farm, where you’ll take a stroll through the vineyards and get a closer look at the winemaking process. Of course, there’ll be more wine to taste, each with its own unique flavour and character.
We’ll finish the day at a third winery, where you can relax and enjoy your final tasting, taking in the serene views of the vineyards stretching out before you. It’s a perfect way to spend the day with good wine, stunning scenery, and plenty of stories to share.
We’ll start the day with a drive along Chapman’s Peak, one of the most scenic roads in the world. The cliffs rise up on one side, the ocean stretches out on the other, and around every bend there’s a view that’ll make you want to stop and take a photo. It’s a spectacular way to kick off the adventure.
Next, we make our way to the Cape of Good Hope — wild, rugged, and full of natural beauty. The walking paths and open landscapes offer some great spots to explore and, if we’re lucky, we might spot baboons, antelope, or a few interesting birds along the way.
Then it’s on to Boulders Beach, home to a colony of African penguins. These little guys are always a hit — waddling around the sand or splashing in the waves. You’ll be able to see them up close, and the beach itself is just as charming with its big smooth boulders and clear water.
After that, we stop in Simon’s Town, a lovely seaside village with a rich naval history and a peaceful harbour. It’s a great place to stretch your legs, enjoy a coffee, and take in the slower pace of coastal life.
Next, we visit Kalk Bay, a colourful, artistic fishing village with loads of character. The streets are lined with little shops, cafés, and galleries — perfect for a relaxed wander.
We end the day at Muizenberg, famous for its long beach, surf culture, and vibrant beach huts. Whether you want to take a walk, watch the surfers, or just enjoy the vibe, it’s a great spot to wind down before heading home.
