5 Day Garden Route Tour - Port Elizabeth to Cape Town

We all had an amazing experience with Afroventures. Throughout the tour we saw many beautiful sites and did activities such as surfing and bungee jumping that made the tour unforgettable. Our guide Sidwell was awesome, being very flexible to changes in plans, patient and easy going. I would recommend this tour to anyone who wants to see more of South Africa outside of Cape Town, Thank you Leigh and Sidwell for an amazing experience.

We had a fabulous 5 Day Garden Route Tour from Port Elizabeth to Cape Town with Afroventure Tours. It was a great way to explore the southern coast of South Africa along beautiful ocean coastline and through mountainous landscapes. There was also a good variety of activities (caves, vineyards, national parks, lighthouses, penguins, ostriches, etc.) . Accommodations were unique and well-appointed. John, our driver and guide extraordinaire, was knowledgeable of the area, prompt, flexible and accommodating. John also knew of all the best places for food and drink. We were very happy with this tour and would highly recommend it. Thank you, John and Afroventure Tours and Safaris.

John was an excellent guide. My friend and I felt so comfortable with him, and I loved the way he respectfully and cheerfully interacted with everyone. He was equally friendly with both tourists and locals, and it was so clear he knew how to navigate everywhere we went so seamlessly. I wanted a real experience, and yes, the Garden Route is vacation stop after vacation stop along the coast — but John made space for us to ask him questions about the history, his own experiences, and everything in between. I learned a ton and would recommend joining John on a tour if you also want an authentic learning experience that's fun! If John ever visits the States, I consider him a friend at this point and would happily return the favor.

John was our guide on our 5 day Garden route tour. We were delighted with his enthusiasm, knowledge, thoughtfulness and care throughout the tour. The points of interest were well planned, and the trip was relaxed and fascinating. Each day had highlights that we loved. We were very lucky that we had John as our guide.

Thank you very much AfroVentures we really enjoyed every little detail and most importantly thanks to Kaghisho ur tour guide he did the best.

The experience was phenomenal! Everything was of top standard👌🏽the guide is reliable, doing the 5days Garden Route is one of the greatest choices one would make cause you get to experience a little bit of more with stops in between giving individuals some “U” time. I love the fact that there’s so much flexibility and convenience, it feels like home on the road ! hahaha😃 ps: This would also be a good trip for families with kids, very educational about the beaut of nature. I highly recommend and would do it repeatedly !

The experience was worth the Rands and remains memorable. From vehicle comfort and the driver/ tour guide Mr Sidwel. He is knowledgeable wrt attractions and their history. He was friendly and professional. Not even a singles time did we get lost. The arrangements and logistics were to a satisfactory standard. I am looking forward to my next tour with Afroventures.

Loved everything about this trip! It was easy to plan, the drivers were amazing and the trip was fun. Amazing nature also.

You can’t visit South Africa and not do a tour along the Garden Route! With amazing views and endless exciting activities to do along the way, I can not recommend this tour enough. Definitely a highlight of our trip, will definitely be back.

Traveling from Port Elizabeth to Cape Town along the Garden Route was an incredible experience. I loved exploring Addo National Park, where I saw amazing wildlife up close, and was captivated by the stunning coastal scenery in Jeffrey’s Bay. Throughout the trip, I stayed in great accommodations and enjoyed seamless organization thanks to Afroventures Tours & Safaris. A special shoutout to Leigh, the owner, whose passion, expertise, and hospitality made the journey even more memorable. I highly recommend visiting South Africa and experiencing this breathtaking route—the landscapes, wildlife, and warm hospitality make it truly unforgettable!
