South Africa is a diverse country at the southern tip of the African continent, known for its dramatic landscapes ranging from the Drakensberg Mountains and the Karoo desert to thousands of kilometres of Indian and Atlantic Ocean coastline. It is one of the world's premier safari destinations, with iconic reserves like Kruger National Park offering the chance to see the Big Five. Cape Town, one of the most visited cities in Africa, draws travellers with its stunning scenery, vibrant food and wine scene, and proximity to the Cape Winelands. South Africa also has a rich and complex cultural history, with Johannesburg and Soweto offering deep insight into the apartheid era and the country's ongoing story.

Self-Launched Cycling South Africa's Route 62: Cape Town to Knysna

This self-launched version of Exodus's iconic Route 62 cycling journey takes you from Cape Town to Knysna along one of South Africa's most spectacular roads — all independently booked, at a fraction of the guided price. You'll rent your own mountain bike locally, stay in a mix of guesthouses, budget hotels and lodges, and follow the same legendary route through the Cape Winelands, Klein Karoo semi-desert, dramatic mountain passes and down to the Garden Route coast. Local shuttle services, Baz Bus links and shared taxis bridge the gaps where the tour uses support vehicles. Estimated costs are approximate and based on current budget traveller rates.

Missions

Nobody's posted a Mission for South Africa yet — which, frankly, is an opportunity.

Wait, what's a Mission?It's not a scheduled trip with dates and a minimum group size like a Departure — it's a goal. Learn to dive, do a Muay Thai camp, live somewhere for a month and work on something, chase one very specific experience. Post it, and other people chasing the same thing find you.

Be the first to post one: "Learn the first 20 seconds of a local dance, then perform it, uninvited, at every bar you visit."
