Self drive vacations in South Africa

The Garden Route, an area so rich in wildlife you can see whales from your car, is the most well-known of all the possible South Africa self driving vacations. But it's far from the only driving route. The winelands of the Western Cape are just a short drive from Cape Town, whilst in the Kwa Zulu Natal you can rev over to the Drakensburg Mountains.
