Highlights

We drive via the N1 freeway till we get to Stellenbosch, the most popular wine region close to Cape Town on the right side of the freeway. In Stelenbosch are many vineyards all the way t the Stelenbosch hills.\n\nOn the left side of the freeway is Paarl which is also one of the 3 most popular wine regions close to Cape Town. Look out for Paarl Rock - one of the two largest single rock outcrops in the world the other being the Uluru Rock in Australia. Standing out from the freeway in Paarl also is the Afrikaans Language Monument.\n\nWe then drive under the almost 4 km long Hugenout Tunnel which was built by the Italians. This tunnel takes us through to a beautiful valley surrounded by dramatic mountains. These range of mountains called the Du Toitskloof Mountains separate Paarl from Worcester. After this picturesque valley we get to Worcester - another attractive wine region about 120 km from Cape Town. This is an area known to produce wine and quality peaches which are mainly for domestic market.\n\nAfter Worcester the drive takes travelers through De Doorns and Hex Valley. These are also valleys surrounded my jagged edged mountains on both sides of the freeway. Hex valley is known to produce top export quality grapes and is just next to Little Karoo. The Karoo is a semi-desert natural region of South Africa.This area is partly defined by its topography, geology and climate and above all its low rainfall and arid cloudless skies. \n\nHere is where Aquila Safari is located almost 190 km from Cape Town which is a 2 hour scenic drive. We drop off travelers at this game reserve and wait for up to 5 hours when they have breakfast, safari and lunch.\n\nWe drive them back to Cape Town after a day full of fun and excitement. The final drop off is at their respective hotels where we picked them up in the morning. The drive back is normally 2 hours.\n\nPoints of Interest\n\n- The Silo Hotel

4 of the big 5 on Safari - The experience of a life time came unexpected. Driving to Aquila we passed through some breathtaking mountains just before Wocester. We even came across troops of baboons along the way like out tour had started prematurely. On getting there we had a hearty buffet breakfast which filled us. We then did the safari but was disappointed we didn't see all the big 5. We saw 4 of the big 5, we didn't see the Leopard. But overall the tour was really good every thi g was perfectly timed. Will return for other tours with this company. Thanks
