Karoo and Klein Karoo – 5 Days & 4 Nights
Step off the beaten track and into the heart of South Africa’s soul. This unforgettable 5-day journey leads you through the vast landscapes, hidden gems, and charming towns of the Karoo and Klein Karoo. From Victorian villages and dramatic mountain passes
Day 1: Into the Heart of the Karoo
Travel from Cape Town to Prince Albert via the scenic N1 and Matjiesfontein. Taste local wines, explore quirky padstals, and unwind in a 5-star guesthouse surrounded by Swartberg Mountain serenity.
Day 2: Over Passes, Beneath the Earth
Drive the iconic Swartberg Pass, explore the ancient Cango Caves, meet ostriches up close, and end your day on a sunset game drive before sleeping in a luxury safari tent under Karoo stars.
Day 3: Elephants, Olives & Waterfalls
Feed rescued elephants, taste award-winning olive oils, and swim beneath the Meiringspoort Waterfall. It's a day of natural wonders and quiet beauty.
Day 4: Port, Passes & Local Legends
Sip Cape Vintage at award-winning farms, journey through Huis River Pass, and visit the famously odd Ronnie’s Sex Shop en route to Barrydale—home of retro cafés, boutique distilleries, and eclectic charm.
Day 5: Sparkling Goodbyes
Return to Cape Town via the scenic Cogmanskloof and Du Toitskloof Passes, with a stop for bubbly at one of SA’s top MCC producers. A final toast to a journey rich in landscapes, laughter, and local flavour.
