5 Day Garden Route Discovery Adventure Tour Itinerary:

Day 1
Good morning and welcome to Cape Xtreme! You start the tour bright and early by being picked up and taken through Cape Town, over the scenic Sir Lowry's pass and onto the world renowned Shark Diving capital of the world, Gansbaai. Here you can be completely amazed by boat based Whale Viewing (in season) or scared senseless by Shark Cage diving. After a few hours on the open ocean looking at the beautiful creatures of the deep you head off towards the garden route through the Overberg region of the Western Cape, famous for its variety of Fynbos. Along the way you stop for a 65 meter bungee jump just to keep the adrenalin flowing. You stay overnight in the beautiful surroundings of a Milkwood Forest in Wilderness tonight.

DAY 2
Fresh as a daisy you wake up early to fly through the clouds by Paragliding off one of the nearby hilltops. An experience to remember. You then head to the tranquil Wilderness River for canoeing, hiking and kloofing (jumping off waterfalls) through the deep river gorge. Its now time to say good-bye to the coast for the time being. You head over the Outeniqua Mountains to the ostrich capital of the world, Oudtshoorn. A dry semi arid region of South Africa called the Little Karoo. Try make use of the night by talking to some of the locals at the bar, you are guaranteed for some very interesting and amusing tales.

DAY 3
This morning your first stop is a Wildlife Rehabilitation Ranch where you are able to view Bengal Tigers, Hippo's, Snakes etc pat a Cheetah and even have a once in a lifetime chance to cage dive with Crocodiles! You then visit a working Ostrich farm where you will get the opportunity to ride a bird! After all this we head off to crawl and squeeze through the world famous Cango Caves which goes 800 meters into the mountains. Once you make your way above ground you will head back towards the coast. You spend tonight in the fairytale like village of Stormsriver, deep in the Tsitsikamma Forrest, let all the forest sounds put you into a deep well deserved slumber.

DAY 4
Wake up to the magical world of this unique coastal forest. The first thing you will do today is be taken into the jungle to go Foofy sliding (Zip Lining) from one tree to the next through breath taking scenery you should definitely try this, it is unforgettable! Can life get any better? You will soon find out when you are confronted by a 216 meter drop off the Bloukraans Bridge (the worlds highest commercial bungee)! A 5 second free fall which might as well be 5 minutes! This is BIG! Your adrenalin will be pumping all night, so be prepared for a big one! Tonight you stay in the spectacular lake side town of Knysna, 3 times voted South Africas Favourite town! We first take in the scenic beauty and then start the fun, you can choose to do abseiling, quad biking, a whole adventure activity package (combining both and more), or an adventure boat trip combined with a tour into some old gold mines. Another great opportunity awaits you at the hostel, finish off the day with a sunset beach Horse Ride. Tonight we stay in the Knysna area, a stones throw from the breaking waves of Buffels Bay. This is the last night of the tour . . . . have fun!

DAY 5

But first you take in the scenic beauty and then start the fun, you can choose to do abseiling, quad biking, a whole adventure activity package (combining both and more), or an adventure boat trip.
