Summary
We spent a little over two weeks driving from Johannesburg to Cape Town, including Kruger National Park and the coastal Garden Route, before staying in the Cape Peninsula and Stellenbosch. We stayed primarily in chalets within national park rest camps and prioritized animals, hikes, and good seafood on the road, but provide some recommendations for other activities and points of interest based on our research 👋
This is not a definitive guide, but we hope it helps with planning your own trip!
Planning Resources
These are some of the documents we used for planning our overall route and individual stops day-to-day.
General Notes
- English is commonly spoken and Ubers are the easiest and safest way to get around if you don’t have a car.
- Tipping is common. There will often be official and unofficial car attendants and security in parking lots, along with gas attendants who fill up gas and clean your car, so it’s helpful to carry cash/coins even though card terminals are common everywhere.
- WhatsApp is sometimes used by businesses when making reservations, can be helpful to check if you don’t have international calling.
- If you’re visiting many national parks and nature reserves, consider getting a wild card.
Packing Notes
If you’re going to Kruger, I highly recommend packing a nice pair of binoculars and a camera with a zoom lens. You can always order and then return after vacation 😇
We bought the Nikon PROSTAFF P3 8x42 binocs and I grabbed a 55-210mm zoom lens for my camera.
Kruger NP is a malarial zone. Make sure you get a travel recommendation from your doctor / health insurance and receive anti-malarial pills. In my case, One Medical provides a travel questionnaire that you can fill out on the desktop site — I was able to get a prescription filled at my local Walgreens on the same day, no cost except for the pills ($15-30) compared to a more costly in-person travel appointment.
Food Checklist!
Here are a few local things you’ll probably eat or want to try:
- Rooibos tea (+ rusks!) — Only grows in Africa, so might as well get it directly 🙂
- Biltong — Reminiscent of jerky, this is meat that is cured in vinegar and air-dried slowly before being sliced. This makes it more meaty & acidic and less smoky, and also gives the meat cut more prominence in the result based on fat content. In addition, biltong varies in texture from super-dry sticks to soft and tender slices.
- Pap — Kinda like polenta? Usually served with boerewors (sausage but higher percentage of meat and often w game meat), and sheba (tomato relish) or chakalaka (spicy tomato & bean relish)
- Pap Fritters — We found sweetcorn pap fritters in a few places, also with chakalaka and boerewors. Crispy polenta with tender insides.
- Bobotie — Casserole of minced beef topped with egg custard. Complex historical roots with Dutch and Indonesian influences tied to Cape Malay.
- Bunny Chow — Curry served in a half-loaf of white bread (yes, not a typo.)
- Braai — …it’s grilled stuff on an open fire! Grill your own meats, find a braai restaurant, or you may also see community braai styled restaurants (see: De Vette Mossel locations). You can also look for local and/or game meats including impala, kudu, ostrich, etc.
- Meat Pies — They’re meat pies! You’ll see them everywhere, most likely -pepper steak- or -steak and kidney-. We loved carrying these as a hike meal :)
- Malva Pudding — A sweet, spongy cake with apricot jam and cream sauce, often served in custard and/or topped with ice cream.
- Carrot Cake — People really like carrot cake here. The cake has much less frosting than in the U.S. and the slices are usually gigantic for some reason.
- Gatsby — A sub sandwich filled with “slap chips” (kinda like wet french fries?) and a bunch of other stuff e.g. cold meats or masala steak and spicy sauce or other fillings. Someone told me to try this, so try it out?

Johannesburg
We flew into Joburg and stayed in Rosebank. We did not have a packed itinerary in Joburg, but enjoyed the usual city conveniences (i.e nice coffee and cafes) along with a spa massage before we left on the road.
For fine dining, we went to Marble and enjoyed the local wagyu steak. A lot of the other places we considered were closed on Mondays.
The Panorama Route
The Panorama Route is a popular route on the way from Johannesburg and Kruger National Park and is a beautiful stretch in Mpumalanga that houses the Blyde River Canyon. Despite being smaller than some famous canyons like the Grand Canyon, I loved this one muuuch more (personally!) since it’s a “green canyon” packed with subtropical vegetation and accessible hiking trails.
Points of Interest
The traditional stops on this route include:
- Waterfalls like Mac-Mac, Lisbon, and Berlin Falls
- Major viewing destinations like Pinnacle Rock, God’s Window, Bourke’s Luck Potholes, Lowveld View, and the Three Rondavels Viewpoint.
We did not visit the waterfalls or the main rondavels viewpoint, but hiked the lovely Tufa-Guinea Fowl-Leopard Trail situated within the Blyde River Canyon Forever Resort. R100 per person is required for entry, and the hike lasts about 3 hours descending to the forest floor and ascending back up through a steep incline.
Alternatively, you can visit the Hippo Valley Trail which is a more difficult, ~4.5 hour trail on the other side of the canyon. We did not do this, but it is said to have great views for the first 5km (and then descends into the forest with an overgrown path 🙂)
Along the Way
- Milly’s — On the way to this area, we stopped at Milly’s for gas. They also have waterfront accommodations and a restaurant + shop serving trout pies from the water. They are incredibly delicious (like, enough to stop for this reason alone — best pies we had on the trip.) They also have their own fresh biltong which was suuuper good.
- Graskop — A good place to stop before or after exploring the area. There are several places to stay — Mosswood B&B was super lovely for us and included a balanced breakfast with friendly vibes in the morning!
- For food, the two most common recommendations are The Glass House and Divine Foods at the View. Many of the B&Bs in the area will include automatic reservations on the day of your arrival that you can take or leave. The Glass House was a cozy and low-key spot to get a meal; we didn’t get to visit Divine Foods, but the view is said to be amaaaazing.
- Activity recommendations we didn’t do include boat rides down the river, the Gorge Lift, white water rafting, bungee jumping, and so on.
- Hoedspruit — Exiting this area, we went through the Abel Erasmus Pass and stopped in Hoedspruit to get food at Kalimambo Pub and Indian Grill (and in particular, bunny chow.)
Kruger National Park
We stayed for four nights in Kruger for game drives — two at Letaba camp and two in Lower Sabie. The camp chalet accommodations will include heat plates and grills for cooking your own meals from the shops within the camp, which sell marinated and unmarinated meats, vegetable skewers, grill materials, and other items such as fruits, eggs, and seasonings.
Letaba
Letaba is lesser-visited amongst the camps and is in an area with lower density of game compared to the south. Letaba camp is situated centrally within the park, just north of Olifantes camp and seemed to have a dense population of elephants and giraffes — we had our closest encounters with giraffes and elephants here. We were also able to have close encounters with hyenas, kudu, and many others (zebra, gazelle, warthogs, hippos, wildebeast, etc) and saw lions from afar.
We loved Letaba camp for the lovely cafe and restaurant, which overlooks the Letaba River and often has elephants and other visitors in easy sight for viewing while you enjoy a meal or lounge about writing postcards, journaling, or working off of the free wifi. The restaurant itself serves surprisingly good food for breakfast, lunch, and dinner (the sweet corn pap fritters topped with spicy chakalaka is LIT) We were able to sit at the restaurant for long periods of time — super relaxing!
If booking here, recommend grabbing a space that sits along the edge facing the Letaba River :) Note that wifi is only available at the restaurant/cafe.
The accommodations are decently nice. Note that the kitchen and grill are outdoors. The shop packs nice meats, steaks, and skewers here that are often marinated.
Lower Sabie
Lower Sabie is situated in the south, where it is more populated with visitors (nearby Skukuza camp is the largest camp and includes an airport 🤯)
The area here has a wetter ecosystem which attracts more game (leopards, lions, and the rare rhino) while also being a lot of flat, open plains in tall grass — perfect for finding game. As a result, binocs are extremely helpful here to see game from afar, and the guided drives are much more helpful to book for spotting game that you may otherwise miss.
The restaurant (a Mugg and Bean) has more of an Applebees vibe, but still enjoys nice views overlooking the Sabie River. It’s more crowded and can therefore be loud, including more bird visitors and hectic chirping. The staff seem to be more rushed and interested in turning tables over. They have a separate cafe section for takeaway and the yogurt is actually really good.
The accommodations are nicer here, with an indoor dedicated kitchen facing towards the backyard patio and grill and slightly more supplies (grill tongs, cutting boards, etc.) The shop sells more varieties of veggies here for grilling, but less interesting meats from what we saw.
Satara
Satara sits between Letaba and Lower Sabie and is known to be heavily populated by cats. The camp restaurant is pretty sad tbh and doesn’t have any view, but they do have their own butchery which serves local biltong and fresh cuts of meat.
General Guidance
- Research general routes before heading out on the road the next day. The maps and guides sold at the camp shops were helpful for us to show common recommended routes with game populations. Feel free to combine those with less prominent routes — we have gotten lucky seeing a family of giraffes feeding at sunset, and a pack of hyenas on the road both on non-descript roads.
- If you find a SANParks game drive, you could also follow them and stop where they stop to view game 🤣 Although they may drive slower or turn into restricted areas.
- The recommended schedule is to be out at dawn and dusk. All camp gates are open at the same time (6am-6pm in April), so being out from ~6-10am and 4-6pm is ideal for animal activity. Be aware of how far you are from camp and leave room in the schedule for delays — we were stopped once by a large pack of elephants crossing the road near Letaba camp. You will be fined if coming in late.
- During midday, the sun gets hot and the animals are less active. This gives you space to rest at camps and enjoy leisurely activities or move to another camp; our best encounter was on the road at noon, when a pride of lions was making its way down the road towards Lower Sabie.
Guided Game Drives
- Guided game drives run for 3 hours in an open off-road vehicle that fits ~12-18 people. The sunrise game drives offered by SANParks leave 30 mins prior to public gate times. The sunset drives go from ~4:30-7:30pm, so you can see some extra activity after gate closures. At sundown, it transitions into a night drive and you use high-power flashlights in search of nocturnal creatures.
- There is usually not much that happens after dark, but it’s a different vibe that could be nice to experience. 1.5 hrs feels like a long time on the road at night — only do the 3-hr night drive if you really want to practice night photography 🙂 At night, the drives can get chilly — even at 70 degrees, with the driving wind it can be cold and tough on sensitive eyes.
- The guided drives are hit or miss depending on your guide and peers — we had one in Letaba that was very barebones and slow to drive, while our guide in Lower Sabie was humorous, fast, always chatting with other drivers and guides on the road to discover nearby sightings, and our peers were fun and energetic.
- This is likely more common in the south, where it’s more densely populated with both people and game. The drive was also much more helpful in Lower Sabie given the flat open plains — there were many animals we would have missed from afar without a guide there.
Morning Bush Walks
- A morning bush walk is a really lovely break in the normal activities and allows you to get out of your car in a small group (less than 10 people) with local guides to walk you through the bush. It’s more about the fresh air experience and learning about the landscape, fauna, and identifying tracks and markers of animal activity, but we did have a few sightings including the rare rhino during the drive over.
- The guides had stories to tell of other walks. I have heard that other walks may be more basic (i.e. walking along the riverbed on flat ground instead of through the bush) so YMMV, but our experience in Lower Sabie was excellent.
- For the bush walks, you will be walking through tall bush at sunrise, so your pants will get wet from morning dew and your boots will get a bit muddy. Dress accordingly (dark clothing is highly recommended for camouflage) and maybe plan for laundry afterwards.
Other Activities
Popular camps like Lower Sabie will often offer bush braais with a minimum of four people and dependent on availability — you can call, email, or ask at reception. This allows you to get a game drive and a grilled meal out in the bush at night. We didn’t get to do this, but enjoyed grilling at our camp just as well.
For backpackers, there are multi-day wilderness trails that you can go on with local guides (sounds sick?!)
Golden Gate Highlands National Park
This national park sits halfway between the Kruger and Garden Route national parks and is a nice place to stop in between — it’s about 9 hours driving there, and 9 hours driving out to the southern coast. On the way there, Ermelo is a sizeable city for a rest stop; we stopped at a nice cafe and bakery for a refuel.
Activities
The national park is relatively small and is lovely to just drive through or have a pit stop. There are some small hiking trails, along with a 4-hour trail (Wodehouse Peak) that reaches the peak of the nearby mountains at 2,853 meters and passes through open plains with zebra, rams, and wildebeest. It can be helpful to bring binoculars up there if you want to check them out. Note also that there is some bush at the start and end, so bring water-resistant pants/boots if possible.
The actual landscape views on the hike are not incredibly impressive except at the very beginning. On the mountains, the hotel/road and tennis court is in view for a major portion of the route. You will also want to start early since there is no shaded cover, which means fog and clouds may cover most of the trail.
The park also has two connecting drive-through loops — the Blesbok and Oribi Loops — which are quick routes for getting open views of the landscape and hopefully seeing animals frolicking. They can be done together in about an hour or so if you stop and take your time. The Oribi Loop includes a vulture feeding hide and has a lovely viewpoint of the Drakensberg.
Accommodations
The national park houses two SANParks accommodations: Glen Reenen Rest Camp, and the Golden Gate Hotel and Chalets. The rest camp is the standard SANParks hut accommodation with outdoor grills, while the hotel is an extremely nice hotel with breakfast, lunch, dinner, and a bar.
They were super hospitable at the hotel and the view was lovely from our room balcony (and the cafe, and restaurant.) It’s a nice change of pace during a long road trip, and they also have a tennis court?!
Addo Elephant National Park
We stopped here for two nights and used it as a coworking pitstop. Addo is made of several sections of land, but generally their animals can be found in larger numbers elsewhere (Kruger, other areas along the coast, etc.) There are quite a lot of elephants and warthogs here.
We enjoyed the accommodations, which include a patio overlooking a beautiful view of the plains. They also have an oven, a bathtub, and the camp has the Indlovu Spa for 30-60 min massages.
There were less vegetables to be found in the shop here, but we enjoyed the breakfast at the Cattle Baron in the main camp as well as the steak (had a bit of a sweet glaze.) We had some difficulty with the grill here since the rack cannot be lowered to be closer to the coals.
If you went to, or plan to go to, Kruger, you can probably skip this park without missing much :)
The Garden Route
Port Elizabeth (Gqeberha)
On our way to the garden route, we decided to stop by Port Elizabeth (recently renamed Gqeberha) for breakfast. We ended up visiting Brioche Food and Coffee in Walmer, which is an affluent residential part of the city. Brioche felt very local and had amazing french toast, curry bowls with mosbolletjie (African sweet bread), and carrot cake.
We also noted a few other breakfast spots in the city (see map.)
Tsitsikamma National Park & Storms River Mouth
Storms River Mouth was our first taste of the coast and whew 🥵 Incredibly beautiful place within Tsitsikamma National Park with cabins and campsites directly facing the ocean. You can listen to the waves crashing at night and it’s so, so peaceful.
Activities
There is a temporary restaurant serving drinks and seafood, which we did not try (but it looked good! saw some prawns…)
There are two main routes that people hike here, both accessible from the rest camp:
- Storms River Mouth Trail (1.5 hrs out and back) —
- The first half is a boardwalk and covers the three suspension bridges. It’s touristy but fun regardless and you see lots of rock hyrax (rock rabbits.) There is a major construction here to build a giant restaurant and observation deck complex thing.
- The second half is a steep climb up to the Lookout Point (Storms River Viewpoint on GMaps.) The walk to the viewpoint is beautiful — we went on a foggy day and the lookout section quickly lifted us above the fog and into an incredible sunny vista 😍
- Otter Trail (4 hours out and back) —
- The full Otter trail is an iconic 5-day trail and the oldest official trail in South Africa. It needs to be booked a year in advance if you are hiking the full route.
- You can hike the first 3.5km without a booking (this is labeled the Waterfall hike on GMaps.) It goes over a lot of maybe slippery rocks and ends at a waterfall that you can swim at. We didn’t have time to do this but the views are also supposed to be excellent.
Accommodations
The accommodations are serviceable. They can get cold at night even with the electric heater. The “BBQ facilities” are just a brick structure outside the cabin (no grate??) so you may be cooking on the induction stovetop indoors if you want some level of modern convenience (and the shop doesn’t sell meats anyways!) The shower hot water faded quickly over time at our cabin, YYMV (take fast showers 😄)
Plettenberg Bay & Robberg Nature Reserve
Robberg nature reserve sits on a peninsula within Plettenberg Bay and is known for its seal colonies (literally thousands of seals.) Plett itself is also a good place for whale and dolphin watching, and has some cute restaurants, cafes, and bars. We had a great breakfast at Adi’s Kitchen and stopped by The Pie Shop to get meat pies for the hike.
The Robberg Hiking Trail has a ~3 hour loop and a shorter 1.5-2 hour section. The trail is not too strenuous, and is actually quite flat and easy within the shorter section. On the full trail, there is a ~45min stretch after The Point with rock scrambles mixed with a few steep inclines and declines on wooden steps. However, it’s also (without a doubt!) the most beautiful part of the hike and worth making your way out there.
If you have time, Birds of Eden nearby is the largest single-cage bird sanctuary in the world and worth a stop for bird lovers.
Knysa
Knysa is best known for their oysters. They host an annual 10-day oyster festival, which occurs in Africa’s winter (June/July). It’s a great place to stop for seafood.
- Freshline Fisheries was a great stop for us, with wild fresh oysters, peri-peri grilled Mozambique prawns, and buttery mussels along with their spicy rice.
- Anchorage Restaurant is another spot where we’ve heard good things.
Both of those restaurants sit outside of Thesen Island, which is a small touristy section of Knysa. We stumbled upon the baked cheesecake at The Island cafe and it immediately placed on my list of best cheesecakes, with a great balance of density and creaminess, along with a lovely cream and berry compote on the side.
Knysa Ziplines is also one of the best-reviewed ziplines on the route and goes through the forest.
Wilderness National Park
Activities
- Hiking — The camp has several Kingfisher-themed trails. The most popular is the Half-Collared Kingfisher Trail with the Bosduif extension, which takes about 3-4 hours. We found the route quite flat and uninteresting (except for the Bosduif portion, which is a short steep climb and a lot of spiderwebs.) The route is mainly tucked into the forest and away from the river.
- Canoeing — You can rent canoes from the camp or externally from Eden Adventures, which allows you to paddle up and down the rivers and sounds like a more interesting activity, although we did not get to explore other trails in the park.
- Beaches — Wilderness houses what many review as one of the most beautiful beaches in the garden route! Should be a great spot to enjoy yourself if the weather is nice.
- Oysters — The best oysters we had on the trip were not at Knysa, but at Oysters R Us (yes, that’s their name.)
- Cafes and Shops — We had an extremely friendly experience at The Green Shed (they have a dog walking around, which definitely fills the miss-my-dog meter.) We also visited Timberlake Village, which was a super cute little enclave of artist shops + the Naughty Monkey Cafe, where we had lovely carrot cake and waffles/ice cream.
Accommodations
We stayed at the Ebb-and-Flow Rest Camp, which sits by the town of Wilderness and at a junction of river crossings. Our accommodations were very nice cabins and included separate bedrooms, an outdoor balcony with a grill and grill cover, an oven, a nice kitchen tabletop for eating and working, and LTE cellular service!
There is no restaurant or shop, so you must leave the camp and enter the town to get supplies. However, the main gate is available 24/7 for passing.
De Hoop and Agulhas
We checked out Cape Agulhas (the southernmost tip of Africa!) for fun. There wasn’t much, but it’s a fun pitstop if it’s not totally out of your way and you can see the border between the Indian and Atlantic Ocean 😀
De Hoop Nature Reserve is the southernmost reserve in Africa. It is east of Agulhas and supposedly a beautiful place to camp and see zebra, buck, etc or bike, hike, snorkel, take a cruise, visit dunes, and so on. It also houses the Whale Trail, a famous 5-night hike.
Hermanus
Hermanus is a lovely, built-up town about an hour and a half drive from Cape Town. It’s well-known for whale-watching from land during the season (~June-November), and has a large array of restaurants and cafes.
We stayed at the Oude Schuur Guesthouse, which was a really lovely stay with recommendations in the area, packaged breakfast for takeaway (we were leaving early in the morning!), and laundry drop-off services.
Activities
- Hermanus Cliffside Walk — This walk is super beautiful.
- The Handmill Coffee Shop — Great coffee and carrot cake here, with extremely friendly service and a nice chat w/ the owners.
- Stony Point Penguin Reserve — This reserve is about 40 minutes west of Hermanus and is a great pitstop for seeing a lot of penguins, rock hyraxes, and birds along the coast. It’s quite short but still worth the visit IMO especially if driving between Cape Town and Hermanus. It was less crowded than Boulders Beach in Cape Town.
- Onrus Beach — A nice beach with an excellent sunset on the west side, and surfers in the late afternoon 🙂
- Milk on the Beach — We were recommended this restaurant overlooking Onrus Beach. We had incredibly good food here, including:
- The seared tuna shared plate (YUM!)
- The mussels (SO many mussels with a super creamy sauce and impressive bread)
- The prawn tagliatelle (INCREDIBLE winter special spiced with chili flakes and other super tastiness)
Cape Town
Activities
- The Waterfront — It’s the waterfront! Nice views, live music, boats and seals. Also great for shopping at the mall or the Watershed (local artists market!). You can also find kayaks and paddleboards here or in Green Point.
- Table Mountain — Big mountain that looms over the city. Has a cable car that goes up and down, along with hiking trails. There are several other mountains as well (Lion’s Head is the most popular hike, and 1.5 hrs roundtrip.) You can do tandem paragliding too which sounds cooool
- Kirstenbosch National Botanical Garden — Supposedly a beauuutiful hillside garden with lovely views and walking trails.
- Beaches — Cape Town houses nice beaches. Clifton beaches are the most popular.
- Peninsula Circuit — The Cape Peninsula is essentially a huge national park with some cute coastal towns on the northeast end surrounding the False Bay.
- Chapman’s Peak Drive — Nice scenic drive down the peninsula.
- Boulders Beach — It’s got penguins! Lots of penguins in close proximity and you can see them coming back from hunting around sundown.
- Kayaks from Simonstown are available and you can view the penguins from sea.
- The dassies (rock rabbits) here are also much more used to people than in Stony Point, so you can find a lot of them close up at sundown eating the surrounding shrubs along the entry boardwalk.
- Cape Point Nature Reserve — A protected reserve and the tip of the Cape peninsula.
- Cape Point Farm Stall sits right outside the entrance of the park and is a great place to stop for coffee, tea, and breakfast. They house super playful goats here along with their friendly dog, Magic. Incredible vibe.
- You can do a 1.5hr hike from the Cape of Good Hope to Cape Point (or vice versa.) Not difficult.
- There are several shipwreck trails, including some that start at Gifkommetjie.
- The tidal pools here are pristine and full of wildlife. We spent an hour at Venus Pool hopping around and looking at starfish, anemones, and mussel colonies. We also saw locals swimming in the main pool. Buffels Bay is a larger and more popular pool and picnic site.
Food
Cape Town is a major city so you’ll find a lot of good food. Here are some notes…
- Knysa Oyster Company — Knysa is famous for oysters and this outpost is a good place to get them and other seafood by the waterfront.
- Zanne’s Cafe — Sells all the traditional SA specialties in the central business district. I had the best boerewors plate here topped with chakalaka and poached eggs.
- Brass Bell Kalk Bay — Surprisingly good seafood platter on the northeast side of the peninsula 😇 particularly the oysters, mussels, crawfish, linefish, and grilled calamari.
- SAVEUR — This waterfront restaurant in Simonstown, near Boulders Beach, served tasty oysters, tuna tartare, and halloumi sticks along with nice salads, fish, and mussels. Their desserts (sticky toffee pudding & baked ricotta-y cheesecake) were also excellent.
Stellenbosch & Franschhoek
Food & Activities
- The Hydro: A hotel and spa that specializes in aquatic-based wellness treatments and also offers massages, mani-pedis, and such. You can book all-day packages or single treatments, both of which give you access to the facilities including pools and some open activities (morning aquacise and late afternoon pilates were available day-of on Thursday.)
- Tokara: An excellent wine estate and restaurant serving set courses. We had the full seven-set course with wine pairing and it was filling and creative with friendly and prompt service :)
- Tokara Deli — More like a cafe restaurant! This place had olive oil tastings and a set menu for breakfast, along with a nice shop.
- Postcard Cafe — Beautiful cafe with floor-to-ceiling glass and incredible views, surrounded by mountains and a lake pavilion where you can walk around and do a wine tasting.
- La Motte Artisinal Bakery and Garden — Suuuper beautiful and tasty bakery and cafe.
- La Petit Colombe — Most creative fine dining we had for both the food and experience, with memorable & unique moments and ingredients.
- Babylonstoren — A large working farm with world-renowned productions, deeply-informative tours, and dining along with beautiful biodiverse gardens and pick-ready fruit. A great day trip for a two-hour tour, shopping, and a meal.
