Introduction

On this Fair Trade, self-drive itinerary you experience a truly African adventure and will leave with memories that echo calls of the wild, that sing and pulsate the rhythm of our peoples, fill you with fresh mountain-air, remind you of South Africa's expanse of wide-open space, and a place where you can find peace and harmony with nature.   

Travel through a variety of landscapes whilst travelling in the Western- and Eastern Cape, visiting Cape Town, Route 62 and the Garden Route.

You also go on safari in the private Amakhala Game Reserve near Addo and in Timbavati part of the greater Kruger National Park, where nearly 2 million hectares of unrivalled diversity of life forms fuse with historical and archaeological highlights. Encounter wildlife close-up with an experienced ranger on guided game activities including walking safaris (for over 12-year-olds only) and on open 4x4 vehicle game drives.

You drive parts of the famous Panorama Route, with stunning viewpoints and connect with the urban landscape of Johannesburg.

Whatever your preferences and interests, we will tailor-make your holiday to meet and include destinations, highlights and activities according your wishes. This itinerary includes mostly Fair Trade accredited accommodation and you can add Fair Trade approved activities as well.

Once you have confirmed the proposal and instruct us to book everything, 30 days before you arrive we will send the final itinerary, the service vouchers, important contact details and a google-maps access-code so you can follow your daily driving route-directions on your android or iphone mobile-handy´s.

Send us your guidelines to quote: when you expect to arrive in Cape Town? How many additional nights you want to spend in South Africa? How many adults and children (under 12 years) are travelling together? What special interests would you like us to include for optional activities - walking, hiking, cycling, other adventure activities? Also indicate your budget per person for the land-arrangements. Time permitting extend your journey through South Africa to the regions of KwaZulu-Natal, or the Northern Cape as well as including visits to the kingdoms eSwatini and Lesotho. 

We look forward to planning your dream vacation with you.
