The 15 4-Day Experiences in South Africa That Earn Their Price

4 Day Garden Route Adventure & Safari - Knysna and the Garden Route coast

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 114 reviews · from $640Our pick

Four days from Cape Town through the Garden Route, with Cango Caves, ostriches, Tsitsikamma, two game drives, Hermanus and more.

“Such a great trip! Our BokBus guide, Mawande, was wonderful! From the game lodge and safaris to Tsitsikamma Park, adding in the penguins, ostrich farm and Cango Caves - such a wide variety of sightseeing opportunities. Also, the views on the Garden Route of the sea and mountains were spectacular. I opted for the private accommodation and the extra cost is well worth it. Every place we stayed was very, very nice with extensive breakfast options. Mawande made everything great and was very informative throughout the trip. I highly recommend this trip and our guide!”

The food was amazing and they went above and beyond to accommodate for dietary reqs. Having breakfast and seeing an elephant walk past the lodge on multiple days was surreal! Lovely pool at Tremisana and time to enjoy the sun. Would highly recommend Viva Safaris”
