Today is free for independent sightseeing in Cape Town.

To orientate yourself, we suggest you purchase a pass onboard the convenient Red Route Hop-Off Bus, which stops at all Cape Town’s key sights and attractions, including the Table Mountain cable car (discounted tickets are sold on the bus). Here you can ascend and enjoy one of the world's most famous views.

Continue to trendy Camps Bay beach and the many attractions of the Victoria & Alfred Waterfront (pay all entrance fees locally).

Note: Don't let the colour of the bus confuse you. All buses are red, but they run two different routes - the Red City Route and the Blue Kirstenbosch Route.

Day 3

Today you will be collected from your hotel for a full day shared tour to the beautiful Cape of Good Hope Nature Reserve, where you may see baboons, ostrich and perhaps even dolphins or whales in season (July/November).

Your tour travels through Hout Bay and along spectacular Chapman’s Peak Drive to the Cape Point peninsula, before returning via Simons Town and Fish Hoek. This is a scenic tour of the whole Cape Peninsula, with the optional opportunity of visiting the penguin colony at Boulders Beach (pay entrance fee locally).

At leisure to explore more of the beautiful city of Cape Town.

You can visit the Mandela Legacy Exhibition at the City Hall, explore the vibrant Victoria & Alfred Waterfront or take the ferry to Robben Island, where Nelson Mandela was imprisoned (advance booking essential in season).

You can also take the Hop Off bus (Blue Route) to visit world famous Kirstenbosch Gardens or simply relax on golden Camps Bay Beach.

Day 5

This morning you will be collected from your Cape Town hotel for your small group tour along the beautiful Garden Route.

We travel across Sir Lowrys Pass with magnificent views of Grabouw and Elgin, a lush landscape surrounded by majestic mountains. En-route we stop at a farm stall packed with locally produced products. We then continues to Cape Agulhas at the southernmost tip of Africa, with its iconic lighthouse, marking the point where the Atlantic and Indian Oceans meet.

Our journey continues via historic Swellendan and the Tradouw Pass to the small town of Barrydale and the famous Route 62. You will have the chance to sample top quality port-style wine in Calitzdorp before continuing onto Oudtshoorn, the centre of the world's ostrich farming industry.

Tonight, enjoy an included dinner at an Ostrich Farm, dining on local specialities.

Note: On escorted group tours please note that for operational reasons it is sometimes necessary to substitute one hotel with another of a similar quality.

Day 6

We start today with a visit to the world famous Cango Caves. This vast series of underground halls and caverns was formed over 20 million years ago in the foothills of the Swartberg Mountains. The caves, which extend for over 3 miles, contain spectacular stalagmites and stalactites and offer relatively easy access.

Afterwards enjoy a wine tasting at a local wine estate in the scenic Schoemanshoek Valley.

We then continue to an Ostrich Farm to see these huge flightless birds with magnificent plumage in their natural surroundings.

Day 7

Today we drive over the magnificent Outeniqua Pass to the oyster capital of Knysna in the heart of the scenic Garden Route.

We travel through George and past the glorious beaches of Wilderness and lakes of Sedgefield to Knysna. Along the way we visit the Dalene Matthee Big Tree Memorial in the Knysna Forest. This enormous yellowwood tree is over 880 years old and was named after Matthee, a well-known author who wrote four books about this magnificent forest which is the stamping ground of the elusive Knysna elephants. Discover the stories of the woodcutters who worked the forests, the elephants that were hunted to extinction and the discovery of gold.

After an included lunch en route, we continue to Knysna and check into our hotel in this area of outstanding natural beauty. Dinner is for your own account tonight.

Note: In season we recommend booking Knysna restaurants online in advance of your visit, to avoid disappointment.

Day 8

Today transfer 3-hours to Port Elizabeth Airport for your flight home.
