This safari begins at Cape Town International Airport and ends at George Airport.

DAY 1: CAPE TOWN

On arrival at Cape Town International Airport you will be warmly welcomed by a member of the &Beyond team, who will drive you to your hotel. Your rental car will be delivered to your door the following day.

Founded in 1685, many of Stellenbosch's original gabled and thatched buildings still stand. Apart from the world famous Wine Route, Stellenbosch boasts brandy museums, churches and beautiful old houses.

Enjoy three nights in a standard ensuite room at Kleine Zalze Lodge. Your stay includes bed and breakfast.

Day 2: Stellenbosch

Enjoy 18 holes of golf at the De Zalze Golf Club.

Set among working vineyards, De Zalze offers a mix of parkland holes that follow the banks of the Blaauwklippen River, which is incorporated in several water features. The Cape Dutch clubhouse boasts spectacular views of vineyards and mountains.

Day 3: Stellenbosch

Enjoy 18 holes of golf at Clovelly Golf Club.

Picturesque and challenging, Clovelly is famous for its rolling fairways, undulating holes and magnificent landscaping. Sand dunes, natural water features and a wide range of indigenous fauna and flora abound. Both course and clubhouse enjoy magnificent views of the mountains and False Bay.

Day 4: Hermanus

After a scrumptious breakfast you will drive to Hermanus.

Acknowledged as the best land-based whale watching site in the world, Hermanus even has an official whale crier! Once hunted almost to extinction, these gentle giants loll within stone's throw of the rocky shoreline.

Spend two nights in a standard ensuite room at the Abalone Guest Lodge. Your stay includes breakfast.

Day 5: Hermanus

This classic country course is set in gently rolling mountains. Water features and rocky outcrops test the skills, while pleasant grassy mounds add definition and shape. The course has spectacular views of the bay, the mountains and the forests.

Today you will drive to George.

Tucked between the Outeniqua Mountains and the Indian Ocean, George lies at the heart of the Garden Route, amongst spectacular forests, lakes, rivers and mountains. While the town is a golfing mecca, the secluded beaches at nearby Victoria Bay are ideal for surfing.
