The Garden Route

The Garden Route enjoys a Mediterranean climate with warm summers and mild winters. The Garden Route is one of the richest rainfall regions in South Africa. The rain, brought by the humid sea-winds from the Indian Ocean, falls at the weather side of the mountain slopes.

Western Cape and Garden Route
The Western Cape contains some real jewel destinations that you just have to make time to see. The Western Cape Winelands and the Garden Route have all the right stuff to provide you with that perfect south african western cape holiday.

Following the attractive coast leads you to the heart of the Garden Route, to George, Knysna and Plettenberg. From there the possibilties are endless: take your pick at one of the many watersports available on the Knysna Lagoon, take a 3 hour steam train trip to Knysna, walk in a lush forest or the daring rugged Garden Route shoreline. At a special time of the year you may even be lucky enough to see some whales. Cape Town Car Rental »

This region of South Africa is famous for it's beautiful coastal scenery (which is nothing short of spectacular), of rolling winelands, of magical country house hotels, exquisite restaurants and championship golf courses.
