Asked on January 23rd, 2025My friend and I were interested in joining the Addo Elephant Garden Route - Winelands tour from Port Elizabeth to Cape Town and we were wondering if it is possible to add on the option of the extra night and visit the Cape of Good Hope, the Penguin Colony, Chapmans Peak Drive and Table Mountain on the 18th of May? We would also need accomodation for the night of the 18th, is this possible?
