Luxury Holidays to The Garden Route

A luxury holiday to the Garden Route is one of South Africa's most popular journeys, stretching along the coast from Cape Town to Port Elizabeth.

The Best of the Garden Route

A self-driving holiday is made easy with well-kept roads that are clearly signposted. As you drive along the route, we highly recommend doing a bit of whale watching, which is superb from July to November. Stop off at Knysna, which is a divine little town.

Beyond that, as you head up the coast, you will find lively Plettenberg Bay with many bars and restaurants. There are many outdoor activities to do around Plettenber,g such as golf, horse riding, mountain biking, hot air ballooning, sky diving, or exploring the beautiful Tsitsikamma forest.

North of the Garden Route, the Eastern Cape offers memorable safari experiences in the vast private game reserves that make up this less-explored corner of South Africa.
