Note

We run this as a private tour and price it for 2 people or 4 people. Contact us for a quote if you are a larger group of people. This tour is subject to walking guide availability as there is quite a shortage of experienced walking guides in South Africa.

NEW: We have added a night in between the Garden Route section and the Drakensberg section as there is no longer (currently) a morning flight from Port Elizabeth (or George) to Durban Airport. So we need to take the afternoon flight and stay overnight. However we think this makes it a more relaxing tour overall.
