The tour only scratches the surface of the Winelands and Garden Route, and you could do it many times and see different things each time.

Paul and Mark did a great job in covering a huge amount of ground across 5 days. From initial pick up, through Stellenbosch and Franshoek, and on to Knysner, there is a lot to see and the tour only scratches the surface of the Winelands and Garden Route, and you could do it many times and see different things each time. Paul ensured we got to see what we were interested in, even dropping in a late evening hippo watch ! The days can be long due to the distance but the hotels and guesthouses were clean and comfortable - food was good, and always ask for recommendations as Paul knows the area well !Show more
