Highlights

  • Wilderness Canoe: Evergreen temperate forests merge with rocky beaches to touch the warm Indian Ocean. Lagoons and strings of shining lakes beg to be explored. Canoe on streams in the Wilderness National Park and watch the bird life while you glide over the water on your encounter with Mother Nature; or follow the shady footpaths that wind through a wonderland of giant trees into the forest
  • Myoli Beach: This stretch of white beach starts at the Sedgefield Lagoon mouth - an unspoiled paradise with the Indian Ocean’s warmer waters. Nothing happens quickly in this ‘Slow Town’ - a small town community focused on celebrating local arts & crafts and a natural way of life. Situated between Knysna and Wilderness - this beautiful seaside village is surrounded entirely by lakes, fynbos covered dunes and forests.
  • Knysna Heads: A lively, popular holiday town nestled between forested mountains and sea, and curves around a big lagoon. Walk to The Heads, where the sea crashes between two massive sandstone cliffs.
  • Tsitsikamma Hike: Spend time in lush green paradise as we explore the marine reserve with its unique combination of ancient Outenique Yellowwood forests and wild dramatic coastal landscape. Walk along forest trails to a suspension bridge and find a quiet spot from where to absorb the living splendour. Look out for inquisitive vervet monkeys & array of bird life in dense vegetation.
  • Addo Bus Safari: Explore the third-largest national park in South Africa - a world of diversity; varied landscapes of fauna and flora - in our guided tour bus. The lush vegetation provides protection and food to support the most dense population of wild elephants on the planet. Home to over 500 elephants and also lions, buffalo, black rhino, spotted hyena, leopard, a variety of antelope and in the marine section, great white sharks and southern right whales, which means that Addo is one of the few reserves in the world that can boast having the Big 7.

What travelers are saying

"A Culture Trip curated trip is a must for anyone burnt out planning their own trips or going to a remote or unfamiliar area. Having a local insider was the highlight of the trip. From the moment we landed to the moment we had to go through security to leave, we were completely taken care of. Our insider gave us great recommendations for restaurants and was very adaptable to any situation that arose."

"I loved my 2013 trip to Africa!!! The itinerary rocked as did the accommodations. It fulfilled my expectations beyond my wildest dreams come true. Returning to Africa in 2015 as I loved it very much. Probably will squeeze Costa Rica this year!!!"

What travelers are saying

"I couldn't find you on TripAdvisor, so I'll leave a review here. I just got back from a tour with a company that subcontracted with Jenman. Everything seemed to flow well, and Rex and Mats were great guides, full of knowledge and easygoing with a large group. They also were very talented trackers, especially Rex. I mean, Rex spotted a porcupine on the night drive with a spotlight. What the what? It was crazy. I really enjoyed Botswana and will look forward to returning again. There was some confusion about our accommodations; one of the reservations were cancelled and then we were promised a tented camp which didn't end up being the one we actually stayed at...this caused some issues with long drives because I don't think we were at the place we were supposed to be. Since I don't know where that mix up happened, I'll keep this at 5 stars due to the experience with the guides and the stays/drives at the other locations, which were great."
