You will discover on this 4N Garden Route Escorted Tour, that the Garden Route is our exquisite coastal green belt, one which invites little forays inland to visit quaint towns like Oudtshoorn, dubbed the ‘feather capital of the world’.

On this 4N Garden Route Escorted Tour,we visit a prestigious ostrich farm there to watch these large birds strut their soft, glamorous stuff. Not far from there are the famous, fascinating Cango Caves with their magnificent dripstone formations of stalactites and stalagmites.

It’s like a strange other world inside,quite captivating, and you can choose to just step over the threshold, or venture further inside.

Knysna is well known for many things, apart from its natural beauty, arts and crafts community, cosmopolitan waterfront…and its own oysters!

We’ll spend some time here with our shopping bags before going on to The Featherbed Nature Reserve with its forests, marshes and pristine beaches, accessed by ferry.

From there, the views across to the imposing sandstone Kynsna Heads and beyond are alone worth the ride.

On our return to Cape Town, we slow down considerably at Hermanus and Swellendam, renowned for their land-based whale watching. Feathers, oysters, whales and art – sounds like something out of movie? Join us on the set on this 4N Garden Route Escorted Tour

We then drive via the spectacular Outeniqua Pass to the town of George, then onto Knysna, perhaps South Africa’s most visually stunning resort, in the heart of the famous Garden Route.

After lunch spend the rest of the day at leisure, enjoying this lovely and special town.

Accommodation: Knysna Hollow Hotel or similar

 Day 4: (Sat) Cape Town (BB)

After breakfast transfer back to the ‘Mother City’, via Swellendam and Hermanus, which has earned international fame as a place from which to spot the magnificent southern right whale during its breeding season (July to November only).
