Classic Garden Route

See the best of the scenic Western Cape including the Garden Route on this calssic South Africa self-drive holiday.

Begin in one of the world's most beautiful cities, Cape Town and enjoy 4 nights in a boutique hotel.

You'll have a rental car for the whole duration which means you'll be able to go out and explore the Cape Peninsula, the Cape Coast and beyond.

From Cape Town, drive to the Wine Lands where you'll have a couple of nights to relax, explore the wineries and enjoy some great dining.

From the Wine Lands head to Worcester to join the famous Route 62 route - one of the most scenic drives in Africa. You'll have a night in Montagu.

From here head to Oudtshoorn, famous for the Ostrich feather industry, the Cango Caves and rural semi-arid African landscape, which is a contrast to the rest of the Garden Route.

From Oudtshoorn drive the Garden Route to Plettenberg Bay and enjoy 3 nights overlooking one of South Africa's best beaches.

This is a great base from which to further explore the Garden Route region at your own pace.

Your self-drive holiday will end at Port Elizabeth where you'll return the car and fly back to the UK.

If you wish you can extend your South Africa self-drive holiday with an Eastern Cape Game Reserve safari for a few nights.
