This tour combines a 5-day Garden Route tour and a 2-day Winelands & Whale Coast tour. Subject to your departures date; you will either start with the Garden Route section or the Winelands & Whale Coast part of the combo tour.
Start with a morning pick up from your accommodation in Cape Town to reach the Garden Route section of the tour by early afternoon.
Paddle through the staggering scenery and abundant bird life of the Wilderness region. Wilderness features 18 kilometres of beaches cooled by sea spray, 5 lakes, 5 rivers, and 2 estuaries.

Duration: 45 minutes
Pass By: Sedgefield Lagoon Mouth, 69 Kingfisher Drive Myoli Beach, Sedgefield, Knysna 6573 South Africa
For those that savour a great nightโs sleep, tonightโs end destination โ the coastal town of Sedgefield or Knysna โ promises just that. Sedgefield is a tranquil village and boasts the title of Africaโs slowest town. Here, life in the slow lane is the way of life. Feel the white sand between your toes. Venture into town for a more intimate dinner if your accommodation is near Wilderness or Knysna.
No meals included on this day.
Accommodation included: Overnight in Sedgefield area at Afrovibe Backpackers or similar; 3-star Graywood or 4-star Knysna Quays or similar.
Day 2: Knysna - Tsitsikamma - Jeffreys Bay
Stop At: Knysna Heads, Coney Glen Road, Knysna 6571 South Africa
Pristine wild and adventure go hand in hand on this adrenaline-packed day. From a morning spent admiring the views from the imposing Knysna Heads to ocean and river views atop Bloukrans Bridge, the worldโs highest commercial bridge bungy jump and ziplining over a gushing river gorge in the Tsitsikamma forest before you get 'me-time' to traverse more lush forests via suspension bridges and hiking trails in Tsitsikamma National Park. From birding to game spotting and waterfall chasing; your Tsitsikamma to-do list will be absolutely jam-packed.
Walk along walkways to soak in the views of Knysna from the imposing sandstone Knysna Heads nestled between forested mountains and the sea, and curving around a big lagoon.
Duration: 30 minutes
Stop At: Bloukrans Bridge, N2, Tsitsikamma National Park South Africa
Choose to either bungy jump, zipline over waterfalls or explore the surrounding forests for your fix of adrenaline.
The bungy bridge itself is fairly unassuming as you drive over it, but itโs pretty apparent from the squeals and screams that this isnโt your average photo stop. The thrills donโt start when you jump, they begin as you zip line your way out to the jumping platform underneath the colossal bridge. Here, seemingly normal people hurtle face first down the 216m drop only to spring back up on their elastic cord like a yo-yo. So if you're feeling daring, why not face your fears and have a go?
Duration: 2 hours
Stop At: Zipline Tour - Tsitsikamma, N2 Tsitsikamma, Tsitsikamma, 6308, South Africa
Zipline through dramatic scenery and over waterfalls in the Tsitsikamma forest. Multiple slides, of which the longest is 211 meters, zigzag along cables across the river gorge, as high as 50 meters above the water in some places (optional activity at own expense).
Duration: 1 hour
Stop At: Tsitsikamma National Park, N2, South Africa
As you head to the coastal belt, paradise-like towns such as Plettenberg Bay show why it and the Tsitsikamma National Park are favourites with holidaying locals aplenty. The short but steep walk to Tsitsikammaโs suspension bridge is worth it for the views alone and youโll likely get a thrill as fellow explorers test its swing factor.
Duration: 2 hours
Pass By: Garden Route (Tsitsikamma, Knysna, Wilderness) National Park, Dumbleton Road, Knysna South Africa
This region is a playground for the outdoors, and for those who'd prefer to keep their feet on solid ground a visit to the lush forests of the Tsitsikamma area provides the requisite photo opportunity.

Day 3: Addo Elephant National Park - Jeffreys Bay
Stop At: Addo Elephant National Park, Addo Elephant National Park, Greater Addo, Eastern Cape
A pre-dawn wake-up call might seem hard to take at first, but trust me, itโs worth getting an early start for your Addo game drive to see even more wildlife as the bush awakes. Your guide will use their experience to pinpoint the whereabouts of the parkโs big game animals while deftly navigating the maze of dusty dirt roads in search of the Big Five.
Duration: 2 hours
Stop At: Parque Nacional dos Elefantes Addo, 335 Paterson Road, Addo Elephant National Park 6130 South Africa
You'll experience an included ยฑ3 hour game drive in the tour bus. The original elephant section of the park was dedicated to providing a safe haven for the few wild elephants that survived government-sponsored culling in the early 20th century. The lush vegetation provides protection and a rich food source, supporting what is now the most densely populated area of wild elephants on the planet. This finely tuned ecosystem is a sanctuary to over 550 elephants, lions, buffalo, black rhino, spotted hyena, leopard, a variety of antelope and zebra and other species.
Duration: 3 minutes
Pass By: Jeffreys Bay, Jeffreys Bay, Eastern Cape
The early morning start means free time in the afternoon and JโBayโs surf shop village โ with its discount outlets โ is perfect for shopaholics. But, if youโve always fancied learning to surf (optional activity at own expense), then this town or the sand slopes beyond it are the places to try surfing or sandboarding (optional activity at own expense), go what about optional horseback riding or just chill out on the beach. You can rent surfboards and wetsuits for an additional fee.

South Africa delivers on its contrasts with landscape and lifestyle as you leave the Indian Ocean shoreline behind and wind your way through the Langkloof Mountains to the arid lands of the Klein Karoo. Here, the ostrich reigns supreme. Bird-filled paddocks line the highway with colourful feather stalls and show farms around every corner as you head into Oudtshoorn.

Hermanus is also one of the best land-based whale watching locations the world, so you can look forward to trying to spot a few southern right whales during whale season from June to November.
