Guided Adventure Tour

Welcome and Sawubona in Cape Town! Meet your fellow adventure tour travellers and be our guest at a Welcome Drink and Dinner.

After breakfast we travel around Cape Peninsula, visiting South Africa's oldest wine estate Groot Constantia and continuing along the coast to the rocky promontory of Cape Point, where we also visit the famous Cape Of Good Hope. In Simon's Town you will see African penguins. We continue on one of the most beautiful costal roads in the world, the world famous Chapman's Peak Drive, back to Cape Town.

We leave Cape Town for a spectacular drive around False Bay via Gordens Bay and Betty's Bay, and on to the historic coastal resort of Hermanus, where we might even see whales (depending on the season). We continue to Cape L'Agulhas, the southern most point of Africa and the meeting point of the Atlantic and Indian Ocean. Overnight stay will be in the old fisherman's village of Arniston.

Today we go to the picturesque town of Swellendam with its historical cape dutch buildings. In Mossel Bay we will visit the Bartolomeu Dias Ship Museum and continue on the famous Garden Route to Knysna.

After visiting the Knysna Elephant Park we head straight to an Original Wildlife Park. During our stay you will enjoy an unforgettable African experience. For our overnight stay we selected a typical African lodge.

Starting the day we continue our adventure tour along the Garden Route, via the Grootrivier Pass, Bloukrans Pass and stop for lunch at the Tsitsikamma National Park. Passing the wide stretches of African bush country, we arrive in Port Elizabeth.

Our first highlight today is an amazing Game Drive at the Addo Elephant National Park, where you have a high chance of seeing elephants, kudus, zebras, giraffes and with a little luck you might even see lions and rhinos. Continuing through Olifantskop Pass we enjoy magnificent roads with hardly any traffic in the Great Karoo. We pass the frontier town of Somerset East and reach the historic town of Graaff-Reinet.

Today the Valley of Desolation and the endless flat plains of the Great Karoo lie in front of us. For the next two nights we stay at the ostrich capital of the world, Oudtshoorn.

At the Safari Ostrich Farm you will get to see an ostrich up close and visiting the Cango Wild Life Park and the famous Cango Caves makes this day perfect.

We cross the Little Karoo through wild and rugged country, passing Calitzdorp, Ladismith and Barrydale on famous R62 - the South African Route 66. Taking the steep hills and slopes on Tradouws Pass we continue through green valleys and arrive in the historic town of Montagu.

We spend the day riding several passes, visiting the old French town of Franschhoek with its Huguenot Monument and fine restaurants. In Stellenbosch we go for a Wine Tasting and Tour on the 2nd oldest wine estate of South Africa.

On our last day, we visit historical Stellenbosch and return to Cape Town. After a leisure afternoon we meet for our traditional Farewell Dinner at the Cape Town V & A Waterfront. Hamba Kahle South Africa!
