Holidays to the Garden Route

This sunny stretch of beautiful coastline has a mix of indigenous forests, serene lagoons, wide sandy beaches, and charming seaside towns. Ideal for family holidays, the Garden Route is a haven for those who love the great outdoors and nature. This destination combines an unforgettable African adventure with a classic family holiday that wouldn't be complete without whale watching, elephant riding and a visit to a bird or monkey sanctuary.

Choose from spacious child-friendly guest houses and luxury accommodation on a golf course to luxury tree houses and beachside hotels.
