This safari-focused 2 day tour gives you unforgettable opportunities to see some of Africa’s wildlife in their natural habitat. The trip is fast paced; including transport, stays and two different 4x4 game drives. Your journey will begin as you leave the silhouette of Table Mountain behind after your included pickup (from 6am to 7am, subject to your pickup address or traffic - your exact pickup will be shared a day before the tour ) to trade it for the scenery of the Klein Karoo to visit a Garden Route region game reserve. The first wildlife reserve is about 450 km away from Cape Town ( about 6 hours away - subject to additional rest stops in between). Spot some of Africa’s Big 5 wild animals from the back of an open 4x4 vehicle at Botlierskop, a malaria-free private game reserve near Mossel Bay. Search for giraffe, white rhino, kudu, lion, elephant, zebra, wildebeest, to name a few. The game drive is led by an experienced game ranger, sharing knowledge of the local wildlife.

The scenery during the next 50 miles changes dramatically from green to dusty dull greys as you reach the relatively arid region of the Klein Karoo and the ostrich capital of the world, Oudtshoorn. Enjoy an evening of free time in Oudtshoorn, relaxing at your accommodation. Ask your guide to book an optional "braai" barbecue dinner at the backpackers (subject to availability) to sample ostrich meat ("sosaties") and homemade bread ("pot brood"), or explore the region's other dining options to sample a variety of local dishes. The guide can help pre-book your dining preference with top restaurants of the region.
