The high rain fall endows the area with lush vegetation and the largest indigenous forests in South Africa are to be found in the region surrounding Knysna. Garden Route tours are amongst the most popular holidays and vacations in South Africa

Exclusive & Luxury Garden Route
Luxury and exclusive Garden Route Tours accompanied by our experienced guides explore this area with its unique beauty from some of the finest hotels in the area. The itineraries range from twenty one day in depth South African Tours to four day tours which focus solely on touring the garden route.
The areas in and around the towns of Knysna and Plettenberg bay are the focus of these tours. Knysna is regarded as the jewel in the crown of the garden route. The name Knysna is a Khoi word but it's uncertain as to its exact meaning. It could mean 'place of wood', or it could mean 'fern leaves', but its most probable meaning is straight down' - an obvious reference to the Heads. Knysna Heads must be the most striking geological features along the entire southern African coastline. They flank a deep but potentially treacherous channel through which the sea pours in to flood the wide and breathtakingly pretty lagoon at the mouth of the Knysna River
