When travelling South Africa don't skip the Garden Route, one of the most beautiful coastal regions of the country.
Stretching from Mossel Bay to Port Elizabeth, the Garden Route boast some of the most beautiful scenery to be found in country.
The Garden Route, popular amongst water sporters, harbours many popular coastal towns as Mossel Bay, Wilderness, Knysna & Plettenberg Bay, all seemed off by splendid bays & beautiful beaches.
If you're travelling between Cape Town and the Garden Route, there's a gruelling but spectacular alternative through the mountains of the Little Karoo or Klein Karoo.
The Karoo, with Oudtshoorn as its centre, is renowned for ostriches, wildflowers, kloofs (ravines), caves & old rock paintings.
The Garden route features a number of good game reserves such as
