11 Days in South Africa
This tour packs a punch with South Africa's most exquisite destinations. Begin in the spectacular city of Cape Town and its famous landmark, Table Mountain. A short drive away is the charming Cape Winelands town of Franschhoek, also known as South Africa's food capital. The next leg of this tour takes you to the Garden Route, a nature paradise with lush forests and wild coastlines. Top this all off with Big 5 encounters in a malaria-free game reserve.
Cape Town is a vibrant melting pot of colour, creativity and cuisine. With its flat, larger-than-life mountain harbouring white sandy beaches, bountiful vineyards and a bustling waterfront at its base.

On a private quay in the heart of the V&A Waterfront, the Cape Grace offers an unparalleled experience of Cape Town. A few steps out the front door will lead you to a spectacular view, a top restaurant, or a memorable activity.
Lawhill Luxury Apartments provides self-catering apartments a stone’s throw from Cape Town’s shopping mecca – the V&A Waterfront. A hub of entertainment, the Waterfront has over 400 shops, a cinema, art galleries and restaurants and pubs to satisfy even the most finicky of foodies.

Encompassing the five elements of One&Only ethos, "connection, indulgence, place, devotion and serenity", the One&Only Cape Town strives to showcase its authentic style and personality born of its local culture. Genuine hospitality, exquisite luxury, and a lively energy all combine to make this an exciting destination.

Founded in 1688 by French Huguenots who fled their homeland in search of religious freedom, the village of Franschhoek wears its Gallic heritage with pride. The Tricolore is dotted throughout its streets, the names of its wineries and restaurants are très Français, and the stately Huguenot Monument looms large at the end of the main road.
Elton John's favourite South Africa hideout, La Residence in Franschhoek, is a Tuscan-style farmhouse shot through with South Africa art, Victorian antiques, glam-rock objets d’art and pop-art colours. Accommodation consists of 11 individually designed Suites, each with its own colours and textures.
A dream stay for foodies, Le Quartier Français in Franschhoek guarantees guests only the finest in wining and dining. With its African-inspired eight-course menu, the hotel’s celebrated Tasting Room Restaurant has won numerous international awards and keeps gastronomes coming back for more.
Experience the Cape Winelands in utter opulence at The Last Word Franschhoek. Just off the main road of Franschhoek village, The Last Word aims to personalise your Winelands experience.

Although there is some contestation about what the name ‘Knysna’ means, it is largely agreed to be a Khoi word referring to the rolling valleys and hills of the Knysna forest. And what a forest it is: Its abundance of ferns and winding streams stretch across 20 kilometres before reaching the Outeniqua Mountains further inland. This coastal retreat is one of the Garden Route’s prime attractions, bursting with charm and buzzing with year-round activity thanks to its Oyster Festival, Pink Loerie Mardi Gras, and Knysna Speed Festival.
Experience your very own holiday home in Knysna at Kanonkop House. With astounding views, easy-going service and a list of activities longer than your arm, you will undoubtedly find any stay too short.
The history and restoration of this building into a five-star property, The Turbine Hotel & Spa, makes for a great introduction to the lagoon-side town of Knysna. Ideally located on Thesen Island, it ticks all the boxes of a well-run boutique hotel establishment and will always be remembered for its uniqueness.
A clear product of its owners’ love, Villa Afrikana ticks every box. Extensive views, personal hospitality and superb location are tied together by simple, elegant design, transforming a stay at this Knysna hotel into an experience to remember.

Kwandwe Private Game Reserve flanks both the north and south banks of the meandering Great Fish River. The Indian Ocean’s breeze turns Kwandwe’s south-facing slopes into dense forest-like thickets of Euphorbia trees whilst the north-facing slopes span out into bushveld. Meaning ‘place of the blue crane’ in Xhosa, Kwandwe is home to South Africa’s national bird along with all of the Big 5. Early morning and late afternoon/evening game drives allow visitors to view different animals’ habits. Cool mornings reveal grazing game while the late afternoon ushers animals to the river banks to drink. Nightfall showcases the reserve’s...
Kwandwe Ecca Lodge is a refreshing take on the modern safari. This stylish lodge is situated in the malaria-free Kwandwe Game Reserve and makes for the perfect ending to a Garden Route itinerary. With game drives, nature walks and Big Game tracking on offer, you can rest assured there will be plenty to keep you busy.
Kwandwe Great Fish River Lodge was designed to enhance the endless landscape and gentle running waters of the Great Fish River Valley. The air here is fresh and the sights and sounds, both soothing and magnificent.
Guests who are yearning to connect with the African wilderness and its wildlife – but are reluctant to let go of life’s luxuries – should look no further than Kwandwe Melton Manor. Guests receive a personal ranger and private safari vehicle, a personal chef who prepares exquisite meals in the farm-style kitchen and a butler for morning service.
