Overview

This 2-day South African wildlife tour departs from Cape Town and includes guided 4x4 safaris at two private reserves: Botlierskop Private Game Reserve and Buffelsdrift Game Lodge. On the first day, the tour begins with a 4x4 game drive at Botlierskop, located along the coastal Garden Route. This safari lasts about two and a half hours and takes place in specially adapted open-roof vehicles. After the game drive, the group travels approximately five hours to Oudtshoorn for an overnight stay. Accommodation options depend on the booking choice and include budget dormitory rooms at Uthando Hostel, comfort rooms at 88 Baron van Reede Guesthouse, or luxury lodgings at Buffelsdrift. On the second day, breakfast is provided at the accommodation, followed by a 1.5-hour 4x4 safari at Buffelsdrift Game Lodge in the Klein Karoo. An optional elephant observation activity is available at Buffelsdrift for an additional cost, payable on-site. After the morning safari, the tour returns to Cape Town via Route 62. Arrival in Cape Town is expected between 8 and 9 pm, depending on traffic and weather. The full itinerary covers around 900 kilometers and includes about 4 to 6 hours of driving in total. All ground transportation is included, with hotel pickup and drop-off within central Cape Town or Stellenbosch. Admission fees, breakfast, and a local English-speaking guide are also included. Meals other than breakfast are not included. A portion of the tour fee supports 2Cchange charity projects. The order of activities may occasionally be reversed. This tour offers a South African wildlife experience in the Western Cape region for travelers with limited time who prefer not to travel to northern parks.
