Here you can visit the world famous and stunning dripstone cave - Cango Caves* (optional cost as it is not wheelchair accessible at all), one of the many Ostrich Show Ranches and the Cango Wildlife Farm. After a leisurely drive back with breathtaking views we relax for the 2nd night at Sedgefield.

After a fascinating stop at Knysna Head and a boat cruise* (weather dependant) on Knysna Lagoon we travel to the heart of the Garden Route - the Tsitsikamma National Park which embraces an 80km strip of superb coastline together with a marine reserve that stretches 5 km offshore. Here you can relax or take walks in the forest which is richly endowed with plant life and birds, the rock pools teem with colourful marine life; whales, dolphins & sea otters can often be seen sporting close to the shoreline.
