Overview

A feast of variety, this tour offers a premium selection and combines some of South Africa's finest seascapes with quintessential quirks of the Garden Route and perfectly rounds it off along the robust Route 62 to give you an all-encompassing escape into this corner of paradise. You'll traverse scenic coastal routes, gazing upon vast ocean expanses framed by distant mountains; taste local delicacies highlighting South Africa's unique flavours; immerse yourself in the sound of nature at Buffelsdrift and Botlierskop Private Game Reserves and join in the thrill of spotting wild animals on safari.

This tour can be joined on scheduled days and the curated journey is aimed at the distinguished traveller who is not interested in a fast pace (snap a pic & go) trip but still enjoys the idea of travelling in a smaller, more intimate micro group. The group size is limited to a maximum 8 people, guaranteeing each a window seat during private transfers and joining small groups during safari.

Hermanus
  • 2h
Set out from Cape Town, expectant for the day ahead with a guaranteed window seat and the promise of many awe-inspiring moments to come. You’ll head along the spectacular Clarence Drive, winding along the coastal road and marvelling at the dramatic twists where the ocean meets the mountain slopes. The view changes with each turn, revealing more of the silhouettes ahead and exposing the vast expanse of False Bay as the ocean stretches out before you. The coastal beauty continues as you meander towards the little hamlet of Hermanus, known around the world for its unparalleled land-based whale watching between July-December. You’ll enjoy the magnificent surrounding scenery and the quaint streets of Hermanus with a hearty lunch at a local eatery. Nearby, local stallholders offer a selection of African wares for shopaholics, and so eat your heart out as you browse and marvel over the local bric-a-brac.
Cape Agulhas - Southernmost Tip of Africa
  • 2h
From the fynbos lined paths of Hermanus, head on to the southernmost point of Africa and the very spot where the Indian and Atlantic Oceans collide. Whist eagle-eyed visitors look for a discernible difference between the two oceans, most visitors will make the pilgrimage to the official plaque and take the requisite photo with one foot on each side of the ocean or for those that dare to brave the cooler Atlantic currents, in the water. Your overnight stop is here tonight - at the Tip of Africa, characterised by drastic craggy cliffs, white sandy beaches and charismatic fishermen's cottages. Indulge in an included local seafood dinner and prepare to be blown away by the unique flavours that have been perfected by generations.

  • Admission ticket included
After a leisurely morning soaking in the ocean air, you'll set course for an exhilarating afternoon at Botlierskop Private Game Reserve, traversing vast hills in search of some members of the African Big 5. Hidden between Mossel bay and George along the esteemed Garden Route, this 4200 hectare private reserve with sprawling views of the Outeniqua mountains and the Indian Ocean is the epitome of safari excellence. Home to four of the Big Five, Botlierskop offers a host of unrivalled wild animal viewing options. After lunch, you'll head out on a custom fitted 4x4 vehicle with a knowledgeable ranger; you can expect wild encounters with giraffes, honey badgers, Cape mountain zebra, vervet monkeys, hippos, waterbuck and the rare and endangered white rhinoceros. If you’re lucky, you might even catch a glimpse of Africa’s apex predators, the lions!
Knysna
  • 2h
As the sun begins to wane, you'll continue on to the eclectically quirky town of Knysna, famed for sensational coastal views, rare oysters and a bustling waterfront scene. This jewel of the Garden Route lazes on the edge of the lagoon, and the Knysna Heads - a pair of rocky sandstone cliffs - highlight the meeting place between the town’s lagoon and the Indian Ocean. Dinner can be enjoyed from the Eastern Head, affording you a breathtaking view and the chance to sample some world-famous Knysna oysters if you please!
Day 3: Knysna - Klein Karoo - Oudtshoorn
  • 3 stops
  • Meals: breakfast, snacks

Enticed by the crisp morning air and fresh ocean scents, you will have a morning at leisure to drink in the surrounds and sneak in a little shopping at the Knysna Waterfront if you so desire. A gem of the Garden Route, and a picture perfect representation of its essence; the Wilderness National Park awaits you next for a back-to-nature immersive hike. The Park’s lush terrestrial landscapes will transport you to a Garden of Eden type paradise as you follow the gentle hiking paths along reed lined banks covered by dense forest canopies. Keep your eyes peeled and your ears open for colourful Kingfisher’s flitting and feeding around the water’s edge or the region’s famous, but rare Knsyna loerie with its green plumage and dark red wing feathers.
Buffelsdrift Game Lodge - Activities
  • 2h
  • Admission ticket included
From the lush Garden Route to the vast arid plains of the Klein Karoo, your journey over the Outeniqua Mountain Pass really shows off our magnificent country of contrasts as the scenery changes before your eyes. Reach Buffelsdrift, a private game lodge on the outskirts of Oudtshoorn, for a serene sunset bush drive. With the wind in your hair and a private ranger at the wheel, you’ll learn about the natural landscape in the Karoo and the critters that call it home; look out for buffalo, giraffe, kudu, porcupine, caracals, meerkats, aardvark, honey badgers and foxes.
Oudtshoorn
  • 2h
When evening arrives, you'll enjoy a sensational dinner on the deck overlooking the waterhole and if you're lucky enough you might get to see the resident hippos lazing about. Enjoy the sounds of the bush as you kick back tonight in one of Buffelsdrift's luxury glamping safari tents bordering the Klein Karoo ostrich capital, Oudtshoorn.
Day 4: Oudtshoorn - Route 62 - Cape Town

As dawn breaks and the animals of the bush, you'll begin your the slow journey back to Cape Town along the expansive Route 62. America might have the flashier Route 66, but South Africa’s most famous country road – Route 62 – charms from the first.
Viljoensdrift

You'll travel along the Breede River Wine Route. Nestled between the Langeberg and Riviersonderend Mountain ranges, this wine route offers a landscape of flower fringed roads, majestic mountains, and world-class wines. Float along the cool waters of the Breede River, while toasting the good life with a glass of Viljoensdrift wine onboard their elegant flat-bottomed riverboat. Meander along the river, flanked by indigenous Breede River Yellowwood and Wild Olive trees teeming with a variety of bird species, while having the option for a pre-packed picnic lunch basket as on-board optional lunch. The perfect way to spend a laid-back afternoon. Then it's time to take travl the last bit of the Route 62; capturing the beauty of high mountains, twisting passes, rugged Karoo plains, vineyards and orchards as you approach Cape Town...and suddenly the unmistakable silhouette of Table Mountain on the horizon marks the end of this sensational journey.
