Embark on a 5-day Garden Route tour from Cape Town, filled with diverse attractions and breathtaking landscapes. Begin your journey in Cape Town and travel to Oudtshoorn, traveling on the R62 Wine Route, dubbed the world’s longest Wine Route. See beautiful vineyards along the way and also go through the Little Karoo Region. In Oudtshoorn, proceed to explore the fascinating Cango Caves, famous for their impressive limestone formations. Overnight in Mossel Bay. On day 2, visit Botlierskop Game Reserve for an exciting wildlife safari, where you can encounter the Big Five in their natural habitat. Botlierskop Game Reserve is home to a rich variety of wildlife. As you traverse the rugged terrain in an open 4x4 vehicle, you'll have the opportunity to spot lions, elephants, rhinos, and more in their natural habitats. The reserve also boasts breathtaking views, lush vegetation, and meandering rivers, making the safari not just about wildlife but also about immersing yourself in the stunning natural beauty of the region. Overnight in Knysna. On day 3, hiking in Robberg Nature Reserve is a captivating experience that combines rugged coastal beauty with rich biodiversity. Located near Plettenberg Bay, the reserve offers trails that wind along dramatic cliffs, sandy beaches, and ancient rock formations, with sweeping views of the Indian Ocean. Along the way, you might spot seals basking on the rocks, dolphins playing in the surf, and a variety of seabirds soaring above. Later, head to Knysna Heads, a stunning natural landmark where the lagoon meets the sea, offering breathtaking views and photo opportunities. Overnight in Knysna. Depart from Knysna after breakfast and head to Africa’s southernmost tip, in Cape Agulhas. This is a unique and symbolic journey to where the Atlantic and Indian Oceans meet. Proceed to Hermanus for the night.
