Itinerary

Day 1, 2, 3Cape Town

Upon arrival in Cape Town, you will collect your rental car and drive to your guesthouse for the next 3 nights. Enjoy the next 3 nights in Cape Town with all it has to offer!

You can climb Table Mountain or Lions Head, dive into history at Robben island, walk to Bo Kaap, dine out, have a coffee at every streets corner. In this city you will enjoy!

Day 4, 5 Franschhoek

Franschhoek is in the middle of the Cape winelands and is famous for its many winefarms, beautiful restaurants and many galleries. You will spend 2 nights here.

In the centre of the village you can buy tickets for the wine tram. It’s an ideal way to explore the wineries around.

Day 7, 8Hermanus

Hermanus is one of South Africa’s most enchanting coastal towns, renowned for its spectacular marine life, dramatic scenery, and relaxed seaside atmosphere. Known as the whale-watching capital of the world, Hermanus offers exceptional land-based sightings of Southern Right Whales between June and November, often visible just a few metres from the clifftops.

Beyond whale watching, the town boasts beautiful beaches, scenic coastal paths, and the renowned Cliff Path — perfect for leisurely walks with sweeping ocean views. Food lovers will enjoy a wide selection of cafés, restaurants, and vibrant local markets, while wine enthusiasts can explore the nearby Hemel-en-Aarde Valley, home to some of South Africa’s finest Pinot Noir and Chardonnay.
For those seeking adventure, Hermanus offers marine wildlife tours, kayaking, hiking in Fernkloof Nature Reserve, and easy access to Gansbaai for shark-cage diving. Despite the many activities, Hermanus retains a warm and welcoming small-town charm, making it an ideal destination to unwind at the coast while still enjoying a rich variety of experiences.

Day 9, 10, 11, 12 Sibuya Game Reserve Forest Camp

Sibuya Forest Camp offers a serene and intimate safari experience tucked deep within indigenous riverine forest. One of the reserve’s signature features is that guests access the lodge via a scenic boat transfer along the Kariega River — a memorable start that sets the tone for a relaxed, nature-rich stay.
The camp blends seamlessly into the forest environment, with spacious tented suites raised on wooden decks for comfort and privacy. You’ll fall asleep to the sounds of the bush and wake up to birdsong and soft light filtering through the trees. Despite the natural setting, the tents are stylish and comfortable, featuring en-suite bathrooms, cosy furnishings, and a warm, earthy ambiance.
The main lodge area offers communal dining spaces, a fire pit for evenings under the stars, and plenty of quiet corners to unwind. The atmosphere is calm, authentic, and designed to reconnect you with nature.

Safari Experience
Sibuya is a Big Five game reserve, offering guided game drives and boat cruises with highly knowledgeable rangers. Wildlife is abundant: elephants, lions, giraffes, buffalo, zebra, and a rich diversity of antelope and birdlife. The mix of forest, savannah, and river ecosystems makes for varied and scenic game viewing.
Why Guests Love Forest Camp
✦ The boat transfer — peaceful, scenic, and unique
✦ Cozy tented suites immersed in indigenous forest
✦ A warm, eco-friendly, boutique-style atmosphere
✦ Big Five game viewing in a non-crowded reserve
✦ Excellent guiding and personalised hospitality
✦ A perfect balance of comfort, tranquility, and adventure
