Fly from the UK to Cape Town, South Africa.

Welcome to Cape Town, where the vibrant V&A Waterfront is your stunning home base! At the Radisson RED, you're just a hop, skip, and a jump from iconic Table Mountain, arguably the city's most famous landmark. This itinerary includes a thrilling tour of Table Mountain and Cape Point, giving you a breathtaking bird’s-eye view of the city and the dramatic meeting point of two oceans. While you're here, don't miss out on the local markets, and be sure to try a "Gatsby" sandwich—it's as epic as it sounds!

Drive from Cape Town to Stellenbosch.

Next stop, Stellenbosch, a charming town dripping with history and surrounded by rolling vineyards. Your stay at the elegant Oude Werf Hotel includes a delightful Stellenbosch Wine Hopper tour. This Eastern Route adventure lets you sip and swirl some of South Africa's finest wines. The town itself is a tapestry of oak-lined avenues and Cape Dutch architecture, perfect for leisurely strolls. Don’t forget to grab a “koeksister” (a sweet, syrupy treat) to satisfy your sweet tooth while wandering through this picturesque region.

Drive from Stellenbosch to Hermanus.

Hermanus, the whale watching capital of the world, awaits! Your stay at the Harbour House Hotel puts you in prime position to spot southern right whales breaching just off the coast. Aside from the awe-inspiring marine life, explore the Cliff Path for a scenic walk or visit the quaint markets. Fancy a dip? The cool, refreshing waters of the nearby beaches are calling your name. And if you're feeling adventurous, why not try shark cage diving? It's a guaranteed conversation starter at dinner!

Drive from Hermanus to Knysna.

Ah, Knysna! Nestled along the Garden Route, this little town is a treasure trove of natural beauty and quirky charm. Your stay at The Rex Hotel offers easy access to the Knysna Heads, where the lagoon dramatically meets the ocean. While here, indulge in freshly shucked oysters—Knysna’s claim to fame. Explore the lush Knysna Forest or take a leisurely lagoon cruise. With just one night, you'll need to pack in as much as you can, but every moment here is a memory in the making.

Drive from Knysna to Plettenberg Bay.

Plettenberg Bay offers two nights of pure bliss at the Hog Hollow Country Lodge. Surrounded by indigenous forests and boasting spectacular views over the Tsitsikamma Mountains, this lodge is your gateway to adventure. Whether you choose to zip-line through the lush canopy, stroll along the pristine beaches, or simply relax by the lodge's cosy fire, Plettenberg Bay has something for everyone. Don’t forget to sample a “bobotie” at one of the local eateries—a spicy yet sweet dish that will tickle your taste buds.

Drive from Plettenberg Bay to Kariega Game Reserve.

Your journey concludes with a wild adventure at Kariega Game Reserve, where African wildlife awaits! With daily game drives included, you’ll have front-row seats to the spectacular sights of lions, elephants, and rhinos. This reserve is a conservationist’s dream, offering a chance to connect with nature in a meaningful way. During your downtime, unwind at the luxurious lodge, perhaps with a sundowner in hand. As the African sun sets, casting golden hues over the savanna, you'll realise this is more than just a holiday—it's a life-changing experience.
