The summit plateau provides breathtaking views of Cape Town and the Cape Peninsula, and at night in the summer months, the mountain is floodlit.

After passing the village of Hout Bay, we come to one of the most breathtaking roads in the world, 100-year-old Chapmans Peak Drive, set into the sandstone cliff face of Chapmans Peak with views back to Hout Bay and ahead to Chapmans Bay. We pass the scenic settlements of Misty Cliffs and Scarbourough, stopping en route for coffee at a local farmstead and to pick up our picnic lunch to enjoy while we&apos;re at the reserve.\r\n\r\nIn the Cape of Good Hope Nature Reserve, we walk up to the historic lighthouse and hear stories of storms and shipwrecks, then hike on paths surrounded by unique Cape flora, the smallest of the six floral kingdoms of the world.

The island is now a nature reserve and a poignant memorial to South Africa&apos;s long liberation struggle. Many of the island&apos;s guides are former political prisoners. Returning by ferry to Cape Town, we make a late afternoon visit to Bo-Kaap, formerly known as the Malay Quarter. This district dates back to the 1760s when numerous &ldquo;huurhuisjes&rdquo; (rental houses) were built and leased to slaves brought from Malaysia, India, and the rest of Africa to work in the Cape.

The first thing we&apos;ll see is the bustling marketplace, where we&apos;ll be greeted with music, street vendors, and &ldquo;spaza&rdquo; (&ldquo;hidden&rdquo;) shops, often in private homes, where you can find handmade and beaded crafts, ceramics, and other market treasures.

Few gardens in the world match the grandeur of Kirstenbosch, set on the eastern slopes of Cape Town&apos;s famed Table Mountain. Established in 1913, it was the first botanical garden devoted to a single country's indigenous flora, with some 7,000 species from South Africa&apos;s six different biomes, including 2,500 species found only on the Cape Peninsula. In the late afternoon, we drive to the Franschhoek winelands, birthplace of South Africa&apos;s wine culture, begun by the French Huguenots who founded Franschhoek in 1688.

Our afternoon is for leisurely kayaking on the beautiful Knysna Lagoon (no previous experience necessary), with oars and life jackets provided, and warm drinks to welcome you when we come off the water. The lagoon, sheltered between two massive cliffs known as The Knysna Heads, is a marine reserve.\r\n\r\nTonight after dinner, we&apos;ll be joined by a marine biologist for an evening &ldquo;Moonlight Meander&rdquo; (weather permitting). We&apos;ve scheduled all our trips so that there will be either a full moon (July) or new moon (October) while we&apos;re here, when the light and tidal conditions are just right for coastal exploration. As we meander along the tidal lagoons, we may be lucky enough to observe the phenomenon of bioluminescence, an incredible natural phenomenon during which the production of light by living organisms causes the sea to sparkle and glow, a sight to behold! Please note that this is not a guaranteed phenomenon because it only happens occasionally, but the winter months (our summer months) are the season when it happens.\r\n\r\nThe Moonlight Meander starts around 7pm at the Swartvlei Beach area with a brief introduction, followed by a walk along the shoreline toward Gericke&apos;s Point, looking at the impact the intertidal zone has on the distribution of the marine flora and fauna. We&apos;ll be finished by 10pm or 10:30pm, depending on conditions and guests&apos; enthusiasm, and can continue beyond 11pm.\r\n\r\nIf the weather does not cooperate tonight, we&apos;ll instead take a fascinating evening intertidal walk on Swartvlei beach, just west of Sedgefield.

Its large crown is still a favorite nesting spot for birds and its fruit is enjoyed by bats, bush pigs, and birds including the endemic Knysna turaco and Cape parrot.

    Overview

    From the scenic Garden Route on the Indian Ocean coast to the Big Five savannas of Greater Kruger, this journey weaves all the marvels of South Africa into one perfect adventure. We'll explore the Cape of Good Hope—a biodiversity hotspot with its Cape floral kingdom and rare penguins, ferry to Robben Island, where Nelson Mandela spent 19 of his 27 years as a political prisoner, and sip wine at 17th century Cape Dutch wineries. On the Garden Route, we look for the “Marine Big Five,” including southern right whales, go kayaking in Knysna Lagoon, and take an intertidal moonlight meander with a marine biologist in search of bioluminescence. We finish up with an unforgettable Big Five safari on private game lands adjoining the epic Kruger Reserve.

    What the Trip is Like

    The trip is rated Level 2+, Easy to Moderate, according to our grading system. This is a luxury hotel and lodge-based adventure tour with two nights at a rustic but comfortable safari camp. There are moderate walks and hikes, one afternoon of sea kayaking in sheltered waters, plus game drives and game walks.
    Review Trip Level Details

    Although this is not a particularly rigorous trip, we still recommend that each participant undertake a program of physical conditioning. Daily walking or regular hiking, jogging, and stair-climbing are excellent preparation for the trip.

    Generally, South Africa has a mild climate due to its southerly latitude and the high altitude of its interior regions (above 3,000 feet in altitude on average). There are starkly different climatic zones: the Cape region has a Mediterranean climate with mild summer temperatures averaging in the 70s (“summer” in the Southern Hemisphere is our winter), while the lowveld has a subtropical climate with warm to hot temperatures in summer and cooler evenings.

    The safari camps and lodges in our program offer excellent game viewing year round. Most rainfall occurs usually between December and February in the form of afternoon or evening thunderstorms. In general, the climate is warm with cool nights in “winter” (March-August in the Southern Hemisphere).

    Cape Town's peak season is September to March, with highs of 65°F in September up to 80°F in February. September to February, there is little rain. Southeasterly winds occur in November and early December. In the cooler months, the daily highs are in the mid-60s. The highest rainfall is in July and August.

    During game drives, we can at times get quite close to wild animals. Being very quiet improves everybody's chances of observation. In the interest of safety, your Trip Leader explains limitations on movement while on game drives, in the safari vehicles, and around camp. Incidents with wild animals are extremely rare on safaris, but no camping safari can guarantee immunity from such incidents. Wilderness Travel is not to be held responsible for incidents involving the behavior of wildlife.

    Trip Levels

    With more than 200 different adventures to choose from, we want to help you find the trip that’s right for you. Our Trip Level system ranks each trip in two ways: a number rating from 1 to 6 according to the activity, and general travel rigors. 1 is the easiest and 6+ the most difficult—see descriptions below for explanations of each number. A plus (+) sign means the trip is a bit more strenuous than other trips of that level. The detailed explanation of each trip—below the bar with the number rating—is perhaps more important, specifying activities, altitudes, hiking, and travel conditions. The Detailed Itinerary, available by download or mail, gives further information. Our Area Managers can also answer questions and guide you to the trip that best suits your interests.

    Level 1 – Easiest

    Non-camping journeys, optional walks, little elevation gain or loss.

    Level 2 – Easy to Moderate

    Hotel nights and/or safari-style camping, hikes of two to four hours on some days. Other physical activities are sometimes included, such as optional sea kayaking.

     

    Level 3 – Moderate

    Half- to full-day hikes (3-6 hours) over rolling countryside on most days, occasional steep trails. Many of our hotel-based walking tours are in this category, as are our snorkeling adventures.

    Level 4 – Moderate to Strenuous

    Full-day hikes (4-6 hours), mountainous terrain, significant elevation gains and losses (hiking up or down as much as 3,000 feet) on many days. Altitudes no greater than about 10,000 feet.

     

    Level 5 – Strenuous

    Full-day hikes (4-8 hours), mountainous, steep terrain (hiking up or down as much as 3,500 feet) on many days. Trips with hiking at average altitudes of 10,000 to 12,000 feet are in this category.

    Level 6 – Very Strenuous

    Full-day hikes (5-8 hours), mountainous, steep terrain (hiking up or down as much as 3,500 feet) on many days. Most hikes take place at altitudes above 10,000 feet, with some days ascending as high as 18,000 feet.

By lunchtime, we&apos;ll be ready to sample delicious food and snacks from one of the street food stalls, followed by a millet beer, served at one of the township taverns called shebeens.\r\n\r\nThis afternoon we enjoy a leisurely walk amid the lush beauty of Cape Town&apos;s Kirstenbosch National Botanical Garden. Few gardens in the world match the grandeur of Kirstenbosch, set on the eastern slopes of Cape Town&apos;s famed Table Mountain. Established in 1913, it was the first botanical garden devoted to a single country's indigenous flora, with some 7,000 species from South Africa&apos;s six different biomes, including 2,500 species found only on the Cape Peninsula. In the late afternoon, we drive to the Franschhoek winelands, birthplace of South Africa&apos;s wine culture, begun by the French Huguenots who founded Franschhoek in 1688. We&apos;ll have dinner at a local restaurant in the Cape Winelands.

We return on a scenic route back to the Franschhoek Valley, stopping on the way at one of the boutique wine estates. We&apos;ll take a short but scenic hike on the La Motte wine estate, where we&apos;ll hear about the activities of the early Khoi settlers and the later occupation of the land by the mainly French colonial settlers, then enjoy lunch and wine tasting in a vineyard setting.&nbsp;Dinner is at a local restaurant.

Our afternoon is for leisurely kayaking on the beautiful Knysna Lagoon (no previous experience necessary), with oars and life jackets provided, and warm drinks to welcome you when we come off the water. The lagoon, sheltered between two massive cliffs known as The Knysna Heads, is a marine reserve.\r\n\r\nTonight after dinner, we&apos;ll be joined by a marine biologist for an evening &ldquo;Moonlight Meander&rdquo; (weather permitting). We&apos;ve scheduled all our trips so that there will be either a full moon (July) or new moon (October) while we&apos;re here, when the light and tidal conditions are just right for coastal exploration. As we meander along the tidal lagoons, we may be lucky enough to observe the phenomenon of bioluminescence, an incredible natural phenomenon during which the production of light by living organisms causes the sea to sparkle and glow, a sight to behold! Please note that this is not a guaranteed phenomenon because it only happens occasionally, but the winter months (our summer months) are the season when it happens.\r\n\r\nThe Moonlight Meander starts around 7pm at the Swartvlei Beach area with a brief introduction, followed by a walk along the shoreline toward Gericke&apos;s Point, looking at the impact the intertidal zone has on the distribution of the marine flora and fauna. We&apos;ll be finished by 10pm or 10:30pm, depending on conditions and guests&apos; enthusiasm, and can continue beyond 11pm.\r\n\r\nIf the weather does not cooperate tonight, we&apos;ll instead take a fascinating evening intertidal walk on Swartvlei beach, just west of Sedgefield.

Its large crown is still a favorite nesting spot for birds and its fruit is enjoyed by bats, bush pigs, and birds including the endemic Knysna turaco and Cape parrot.
