The Cape Garden Route is on many travelers’ bucket lists when they consider a trip to South Africa! This beautiful and scenic region spreads from Cape Town, all the way down the coast to the Eastern Cape. The Eastern Cape is home to a number of malaria-free reserves, which is great for families with young children, pregnant women, and elderly family members.
The Garden Route is predominantly a self-drive destination. We can assist you in picking a car that will work best for your trip. If you don’t want to drive, we can arrange a driver for you. You could make use of domestic flights, but the drive really is a big part of the attraction. The views from the road are breath-taking, and there are many amazing towns to explore.
There are many activities in the Garden Route which will appeal to the adventure traveler. Take your pick from hiking, snorkelling, boat trips, horse-riding, and more family-friendly activities, such as animal sanctuaries. The coastline on this stretch is absolutely picturesque, and dolphins can be spotted playing in the water.
You can also bungee jump off Africa’s highest bridge, which is on the border of the amazing Tsitsikamma forest. While you are in the forest, let us book a tree-top zip-lining experience for you.
Tailored Ventures has driven this route many times and visited the properties that we offer. With the amazing views found on the Cape Garden Route, it’s no wonder it’s a sought after destination for honeymooners, couples, and those seeking a romantic getaway.
The Garden Route can easily be combined with a safari in the Eastern Cape and other safari regions in South Africa. Cape Town is a good add-on to this itinerary, so is some time in the Cape Winelands.
