Best of Gravel

At noon you will land at the international airport in Cape Town and will be picked up by us and taken to your hotel. After you have freshen up and taken a small snack, you will discover the Table Mountain together with the other participants and in good weather.

The Cape of Good Hope, penguins, the journey to the Tankwa Karoo via the Bainskloof Pass and many kilometers on the Gravel Roads so loved by Cape Town endurists determine the following days in and near the Cederberge.

You will come into contact with the famous South African Braai´s as well as with the surf of the Atlantic Ocean. The west coast is waiting for you and the finale of these first 9 fantastic days shows you where the Indian and Atlantic Ocean unite.

Back in the Mothercity of Capetown, you will get to know this vibrant city at the southern end of the African continent intensively and discover all the other highlights of the city and the wine region for you in addition to Robben Island, where Nelson Mandela spent 26 years in prison.

In Hermanus, with a lot of luck, there is time for whale watching before you get to see a lot of game in the Botlierskoop Game Reserve.

Many kilometers of gravel on the Swartbergpass, the way into Die Hel and around the Swartberge are part of your adventure.

On a farm in Prince Albert, you will get to know the people and their traditional cuisine and have the right landscape to relax around you.
