Stretching along South Africa's south-western coastline is the scenic Garden Route (which encompasses the popular Whale Route). Studded with quaint seaside resorts, whale spotting points and nature reserves this could be one of the most memorable trips on your itinerary.
The tour can be run from Cape Town to Port Elizabeth or vice versa. It’s a relaxing meander which winds through indigenous forests, past breathtaking coastlines and magnificent scenery, stopping along the way for a night or two at each village where one has the opportunity to spot passing whales and dolphins; and sample the delicious local oysters.
