Package Overview

Experience the exotic natural beauty and wonders of the famous Garden Route in effortless exploring along the picturesque Southern Cape Coastline. The Garden Route, perennially green, has a mild Mediterranean Maritime climate and lies on a narrow belt between the Outeniqua and Tsitsikamma Mountains and the Southern Coast of Africa and includes a blend of charming towns, dramatic & scenic landscapes, tall trees, deep gorges, shimmering lakes, majestic mountain ranges, golden beaches and lush indigenous forests. The Garden Route extends into the Eastern Cape, home to the free-roaming Big 5 of the animal kingdom (Lion, Leopard, Rhino, Elephant, Buffalo). Experience an authentic African Safari on one of the malaria-free game reserves in the Eastern Cape in the thrill of wildlife encounters and the sounds of the bush: the trumpet of the Elephant and the nocturnal strident howl of the black-backed Jackal.
