We start our trip in Cape Town. Meet your fellow travellers and be our guest at a Welcome Drink and Dinner in the evening.

After collecting our motorcycles we ride around Cape Peninsula, passing the playground of the rich and famous and riding along the coast out to the rocky promontory of Cape Point (Cape Of Good Hope). We visit Cape Point Nature Reserve before continuing to Simon’s Town, where you will see African penguins at Boulders Beach. From here we head back to Cape Town via the spectacular Ou Kaapse Weg Pass through the thick forests of Tokai and Constantia and the Kirstenbosch Botanical Gardens.

We leave Cape Town for an exhilarating and spectacular ride around False Bay via Gordens Bay and Betty’s Bay, and on to the historic coastal resort of Hermanus for lunch. We continue past rolling wheat fields on to Cape L’Agulhas, where we visit the southern most point of Africa.

In the morning we take the steam train that skirts the coast on an amazing route to George, and in the afternoon we visit the Blue Hills Wildlife Park to see buffalo, rhino, giraffes, zebras, kudus, and maybe even leopards. Alternatively, you can just rest at the resort’s swimming pool or on the beach.

After an early start, we continue our ride along the Garden Route, passing through the Tsitsikamma Forest, Grootrivier Pass, and Bloukrans Pass, as well as the town of Port Elisabeth. Turning inland, we encounter typical African bush country with huge thorn trees before arriving in Addo just in time for dinner and an Addo Elephant National Park Safari.

We ride further inland through Olifantskop Pass and enjoy magnificent roads with hardly any traffic in remote African country. We pass through the frontier towns of Cookhouse and Cradock before crossing the Sneeuberg (Snow Mountain) and finally ending up in the historic town of Graaff-Reinet, where we watch the sun set over the Great Karoo – an experience never to be forgotten.

On Day 8 we pass through the endless flat plains of the Karoo on our way to the ostrich capital of the world, Oudtshoorn.

Today is a rest day in Oudtshoorn. You may wish to explore locally and visit the famous Cango Caves or the Cango Wildlife Farm, a breeding station for cheetahs, lions, tigers, crocodiles, and alligators.

We recross the Little Karoo through wild and rugged country, passing through Calitzdorp, Ladysmith, and Barrydale before arrivinge in the Western Cape at Montagu, an attractive spa town with natural hot water springs hidden in a mountain cleft. While here, we visit the Joubert House Museum, which provides a view of life in the area in the 19th century.

We spend the day travelling the 7 Passes Route, which climbs up to 4000 meters (13,123 feet) and the local ski club.

On our last day, we ride back to Cape Town and drop our motorcycles off at the rental office. In the evening we meet up to reminisce at our Farewell Dinner.
