South Africa is a fantastic place to rent a car and head off exploring.
On this itinerary you will experience some of the less-visited areas of the Western Cape as well a few classic destinations. This is not your standard "Cape Town, Winelands and the Garden Route" circuit that any travel agent can sell you off the shelf.
I planned this route and drove it personally to provide first-hand experience to help you decide if you would like to follow in my tyre tracks.
I can promise you a fabulous road trip that you will be talking about for years afterwards!
