Listed by many as one of the worlds best drives, a luxury holiday to South Africa's Garden Route takes you to points from George through to Port Elizabeth and we recommend a 3 or 4 day road trip, which should provide you with a superb few days. The mountains sweep down to the Indian Ocean which is bordered with some spectacular forests such as Tsitisikamma and sleepy towns such as Knysna with it’s antique shops and tea rooms.
