Western Cape

South Africa's Western Cape is so diverse - your family will either feel on safari or somewhere in Europe, depending on the day. Driving is easy, with a well-maintained highway system and the popular "Garden Route” is the perfect self-paced family road trip. Parents quickly realize kids are welcomed, at even the most rustic rest stops or farm stalls, with homemade play structures and healthy, multicultural food.

Tip: Bed & Breakfasts (in the traditional British fashion), guest houses and intimate lodges are the most common travel accommodations in both remote and city locales. Not only is it affordable, it is one of the most hospitable experiences for parents and children.
