Knysna has been called South Africa’s favourite small town and with its stunning lagoon location, numerous art galleries, craft shops and the excellent Knysna Quays marina shopping and dining complex, it’s not hard to see why. The Garden Route, as its name implies, really is a scenic treat!

Day 18 - Swellendam and the Overberg
After Cape Town and Stellenbosch, Swellendam is the third oldest settlement in South Africa. Laying at the foot of the beautiful Langeberg mountains this place is not only famous for its youngberries, but as well as for its architecture and its history. The nearby National Park is a place of simplistic beauty and peaceful charm. The majestic Langeberg Mountains provide a picturesque backdrop for this Park that is home to the endangered bontebok. The Breede River provides an idyllic western border to the park and offers guests scenery, bird watching, fishing, and a refreshing swimming spot.

Day 19 - Arniston and the Foot of Africa
Head ‘way down south’ to the southernmost point of Africa and the meeting point of the Atlantic and Indian oceans, Cape Agulhas. Although renowned for its turbulent weather, evident in the shipwrecks hidden under the dark waters, Agulhas also plays home to an abundance of migrating whales and dolphin in season. After a visit to the point, head on to the 2nd oldest lighthouse in South Africa for a magnificent view of the surrounding coastline and marine reserve and the chance to send a postcard from the southernmost point of Africa! Famous for the best land-based Whale watching in the world
- Arniston Caravan Park
Day 20 - Stellenbosch and the Boland Wine region
Take the long and scenic drive to the Cape’s beautiful Winelands. If you've got time we also suggest going shark cage diving - book in advance with Lekker Camper to avoid dissapointment. During May to mid November we suggest driving via Hermanus, the world’s best spot for onshore whale watching. These gentle giants move in seemingly permanent slow motion and are a truly amazing sight as they playfully cavort in the water
- Mountain Breeze (Stellenbosch)
Day 21 - Cape Town
Go wine tasting in Stellenbosch and Franschhoek. There are an abundance of wine estates to visit, so collect a wine route map from a toursim office or decide where to stop as you go along. Enjoy a leisurely lunch at one of the wine estate restaurants or stop-off in Franschhoek's main street for a selection of quaint cafe's and bistros. The scenery along the way is spectacular.
