Garden Route Safaris


And you thought the Garden Route was all about whales, oysters and Pink Loeries. Prepare to be blown away by the private game reserves that mark the eastern extremity of the Garden Route.

Offering exclusive luxury, gentle rolling hills and Africa’s famous beasts by the hundred, the game reserves of the Eastern Cape are every bit as rewarding as the more well-known wildlife destinations with a few nifty bonuses thrown in.

The reserves are private, guaranteeing exclusive safaris that you share with nature alone; the entire area is malaria free so there’ll be no manic dreams from the pills, no itchy bites and no homicidal urges speared on by the continuous whine of a mosquito; and they are very close to the Garden Route and Cape Town.

Alongside the impressive Addo Elephant Park and exclusive Shamwari Game Reserve comes a string of smaller reserves that boast big five game-viewing, and plane herds and antelope by the bagload. The weather is mild and the scenery splendid.

Combine a trip to Cape Town with a Garden Route Safari and you’ve almost seen the best of South Africa – but don’t tell the folk around Kruger Park or they’ll be mighty miffed.

The Out2Africa consultants love the Garden Route, it's spectacular why wouldn't they! So they will happily book you a tailormade Garden Route itinerary, simply contact Out2Africa to book.
