On the last day of the Land Only itinerary, there will be a single timed transfer to Cape Town for flights departing in the early evening.

Anyone may join the group transfers by prior arrangement. Travelling as a group or on public transport saves energy. If this is not practical, we can provide private transfers at an additional cost.

Hotel contact details and an emergency number will be provided with your booking confirmation.

All breakfasts and 1 lunch are included. This gives you plenty of opportunity to choose your own meals for the majority of the holiday. There is ample choice of a variety of foods..and wines!

Many places on this holiday have drinkable water from the tap to fill your personal water bottles. Please check with the leader at the various locations. Please take purification tablets or a filter bottle (such as a Water-To-Go bottle) for days when drinking water out of the tap is not available. We do not encourage the purchasing of single use plastic bottles.

Breakfast is usually cereals and yoghurt, with coffee, tea, toast and the occasional cooked breakfast. Lunches are taken in a local restaurant, or sometimes we have a picnic, purchased from the accommodation or from a local store. Dinners menu's usually have a variety of choices and can include potjies (traditional stews), braais (barbecue), pastas, pizzas, and meats such as springbok and ostrich. Vegetables and vegetarian options are also plentiful. As to be expected next to the coast there will be a high proportion of sea food on certain menus as well. There will also be plenty of choice of wines to go with any dish that you choose.

Whilst we can cater for vegetarians, albeit sometimes with a more limited choice, we cannot always provide special diets.  Due to the nature of some of the trips that we operate and the countries in which we operate them, it can be very hard (and sometimes impossible) to cater for a wide range of dietary choices and you may have to supplement your diet with food/snacks from home.  If you have specific dietary requirements please do speak to our sales team and they will be able to advise you whether or not we will be able to offer your specific choice.  Please note that we are unable to provide separate menus and cannot accept liability for any problems arising from special dietary requirements or intolerances.

On our 2 nights in Stellenbosch we stay at a well presented guesthouse with light airy rooms, gardens, swimming pool and with sweeping views over the surrounding landscape. This manor house dates back to 1756 and is beautifully converted into this country-style guesthouse. It is nestled in the heart of the winelands.

The one night that we have in Montague we stay in an art deco country hotel. It is a very comfortable small hotel with a lovely garden and a swimming pool. Many of the rooms have views over the Montagu winelands.

In Barrydale our guesthouse is one of the oldest historical buildings dating from 1800 when it was a local general traders store. It has comfortable rooms, and quirky living spaces and outdoor areas for a coffee under the vines and rambling roses.

In Hermanus our hotel for 2 nights is on the sea cliffs, and if we are lucky we might even be able to spot whales right from the hotel!

Simonstown, next to the penguins at boulders beach gives us the opportunity to spend 1 night at the quay, seeing the little yachts coming and going in False Bay. The views are great. The hotel has an appropriate nautical theme, and is located on the waters edge. The rooms are furnished in a modern fashion.

Our hotel in Cape Town for 3 nights has an excellent local begin situated in Victoria & Alfred Waterfront area. It is well appointed and has a small dip pool and outdoor seating along the canal.

Please note this is an example of the hotels used on this trip and they may change according to availability. All accommodation is en-suite. If you are travelling by yourself, you will be paired up with another single client of the same sex. Single rooms are available for a supplementary cost. If you are planning on extending your holiday additional nights at the group hotel are available on request.

The group will be led by a professional and qualified tour leader. Additionally there is a driver for the vehicle.

We estimate that a total of around £400 per person (or equivalent in euros/dollars) should be allowed for personal spending. This amount should also be sufficient to cover meals which are not included, miscellaneous expenses, including any departure tax, tips to local staff. If you are intending to buy expensive souvenirs or undertake any optional activities or excursions, you should budget accordingly (credit cards can be useful in this respect). You can choose to take your money in pounds Sterling, Dollars, Euros or in South African Rand. There will be the opportunity to change money into local currency on arrival at Cape Town Airport. Additionally, you will be able to get currency from bank ATMs in the towns that we will visit.

Optional Activities:

All prices are approximate and are subject to change without notice. All optional activities taken outside the KE holiday are at your own risk.

• Robben Island tour: R360 per person. Pre-booking is adviseable. Robben Island Tours
• Whale watching in Hermanus (Jun-Dec): R900 per person (joining a boat with other tourists)

Tipping is the accepted way of saying ‘thank you’ to your leader and local team. Tipping is entirely voluntary and should be dependent on good service. We recommend that you decide levels of tipping and give any tips as a group rather than from individual group members.

For this holiday you should take one piece of luggage and a daypack. Luggage with wheels is useful for this holiday. For international flights please check your baggage allowance with your airline.

For each holiday there is a minimum number of participants required to enable it to go ahead. Once the minimum number is reached, the trip status will change from 'Available' to 'Guaranteed to run'. You can check the trip status for each departure in ‘Dates and Prices’ table. Other than in exceptional circumstances, we will not cancel a trip once it has achieved this guaranteed to run status and so you are free to proceed with your international flight booking and other travel arrangements.
