South Africa Garden Route Tour – Dec ‘08

Our excellent guide Craig Ziman picked us up from our Cape Town hotel and the three of us went as far east as Knysna. We started with a visit to an ostrich farm. Then it was into the Cango Caves at Oudtshoorn.

A visit to Birds Of Eden, is the garden route’s very own world class free flight bird sanctuary is a must. The unique two hectare dome (the World’s largest) spans over a gorge of indigenous forest.

Whilst in Knysna we visited Featherbed eco-reserve which is well worth a visit.
