Touring
Cape Tour
Scott of Africa conduct tours down the picturesque garden route between Port Elizabeth and Cape Town. Visits are made to Knysna (the oyster capital of the world), Oudshoorn (the home of the ostrich industry) as well as to various wine estates of the Western Cape to partake of some of the world renowned local cheeses and wines.
In Cape Town itself, tours include Table Mountain, the Victoria & Alfred Waterfront, a Peninsula drive to Simonstown to view the penguin colony and Cape Point where the two oceans meet. Guests are accommodated in an old family home on the Table Bay beach with an un-interrupted view of Table Mountain. Dining is at personally selected restaurants offering cuisine second to none including Cape Malay, seafood dishes and other local delicacies.
This tour can be added on to the beginning or end of your safari or can be done on its own. At least 5 days should be allowed to truly experience some of the delights of this most South-Westerly part of Africa.

Addo Elephant Park Tour
On route to Port Elizabeth airport a very popular stop over is at the Addo Elephant Park where sightings of hundreds of elephants as well as buffalo and many varieties of antelope species and even lion take place.
Addo is one of the few malaria free parks offering 4 of the big 5 species.
A day added on to your safari to enjoy this park comes highly recommended.
