Following your connection flight from Johannesburg you will be picked up at Port Elizabeth Airport and then taken to Amakhala Game Reserve where you will start your 3 night stay. Hopefully you will arrive in time for the afternoon Safari.
For the next 3 nights you will become fully immersed in the safari experience, taking part in game drives, walk, sundowners and relaxation. Hsoli Lodge is excellent for families so you can be ensured that children will be fully entertained whilst adults get to enjoy the game drives. The following applies for children:
- Children from 3 – 12 years will be included in the Cubs on Safari programme run by the Child Co-ordinator.
- Baby-sitting services by prior arrangement with the lodge can be available from 15:30 until after dinner at an hourly fee of R 80.00 per family.
- The Children’s programme will run from 09:30 – 16:00 or as determined by the Child Co-ordinator depending on the children in camp.
- Children aged 0 – 2 are not permitted on Game Drives.
- Children 6yrs and over will automatically be included in game drives activities.
- Children 5yrs and younger will only be included at the discretion of the ranger at the time of stay.
- A dedicated children’s room is available, with books, games, toys, television and DVDs.
- A wide range of activities are available at dedicated times throughout the day. The Children’s Coordinator will meet parents and children on arrival to explain what activities are available, and schedule children’s activities during guests’ stay. Together with parents, a programme is tailored to suit weather, children’s ages and availability of specialist staff for specific activities.
Following a final morning game drive you will transfer to Knysna for a 3 night stay. There are plenty of activities to keep families amused in this area, particularly around the beautiful lake.
Today you will continue along the Garden Route to the quaint town of Oudtshoorn for a 2 night stay. If you are on the guided tour you have an included Cango Caves Tour and a Safari Ostrich Farm Tractor Tour. These activities are excellent for children and are the top attractions in the area. We also strongly recommend trying ostrich if you are a meat eater - it is delicious!
Contine your journey around the famous Garden Route to the beautiful university town of Stellenbosch. Here you have 2 nights to explore the town and the surrounding Cape Winelands. If you are on the guided tour you have an included full day Winelands trip that will be tailored to meet the interests of your family.

Continue along the final stretch of the stunning Garden Route before reaching your final destination of Cape Town, ready for a 3 night stay. You have time to experience the abundance of what Cape Town has to offer. If you are on the escorted tour you have an included 1/2 day city tours, and a full day tour to Cape Point and Boulders Beach, to see the fabulous African Penguins. We can easily advise a range of activities if you are looking for suggestions. We always recommend the V&A Waterfront for families- particularly at the weekend as there is always something going on.
