Southern Tip of Africa Tour

Visit the southernmost tip of our continent for a day filled with vivid storytelling, extensive natural beauty and a host of unusual experiences.

An iconic day trip

This specially crafted day trip will show you the undiscovered corners of this unique area through a combination of experiences you won’t find anywhere else. Snap unforgettable pictures of the tip of Africa, watch the locals feeding sting-rays in the Struisbaai harbour and uncover the fascinating history of small villages.

Spot birds, antelope and ostriches as we drive on the border of the Agulhas National Park, where the Blue Crane bird is abundant. Then enjoy a leisurely lunch in the harbour. Take a brisk walk to the lighthouse, and then learn how many ships came to be wrecked along this ‘Cape of Storms’.

  • Tours can be organised to cover a full day or half day.
  • Visit the villages of Baardskeerdersbos and Elim.
  • Enjoy wine tasting at the Southern most tip of Africa.

What's new at Grootbos - New Garden Lodge and Florilegium

The last year has been a busy one at Grootbos. We rebuilt our beloved Garden Lodge entirely and re-opened it in April 2022. We also officially launched the Grootbos Florilegium - Africa's first contemporary florilegium - which is a collection of botanical illustrations created by local and international artists, depicting the charismatic plants found on our reserve and the surrounding regions.
