2. Peggy's African Art and Tours
Overall Ratings
5.0 based on 34 reviews
At the studio & gallery at 66 Main Street you can hear the stories behind my paintings and get a glimpse of my own life and work as an African artist. Visiting me is of course free but as an accredited Tour Guide I also offer township tours: Expect a fascinating experience of African culture, food, lifestyle and empowerment far beyond the usual Garden Route "routine". Optional: visit local artists.

Make sure you see the video prior to browsing through this wonderful museum. Spent a good hour and a half here and we were amazed at the thoughtfullness that has gone into putting this collection together. Both my hubby and my kids (teenagers) found this to be a hidden gem! If you're in the area you should give it a try, you wont be disappointed!

We were wandering around Knsyna on a sunny afternoon, and happened to pop into Jan’s studio. What began as a chance stop-in turned into a wonderful experience talking with Jan about his interesting life as an artist. He kindly offered us water, coffee, or wine, and made us feel at home while we looked around at his incredibly unique art pieces (all finger-painted!!!). His kind nature was apparent through his artwork and his actions. We really enjoyed talking to him and ended up buying some small pieces and a unique wine cork board. I wish I had pictures to share. An absolute must!!!!!!!!!!

We understand that you are hungry for something real and authentic in every place you visit across the globe. We at RPRX want you to truly Xperience and enjoy your time in the Garden Route, and want you to leave with a special piece of this amazing place we call home. What better way to do this than distilling your very own bottle of Craft Gin under the expert guidance of a local distiller, and to infuse it with the Garden Route's indigenous Fynbos botanicals. This is an Xperience like none other, and one we trust will live on in your memory for many years to come!
7. Knysna Gin Distillery
Overall Ratings
5.0 based on 34 reviews
Knysna Gin Distillery creates traditional small batch Spirits. Our first gin recently scored 91 points at the IWSC in London. Visit any day for tastings and an informal tour. Try the new Blueberry Gin. Enjoy the creative cocktail menu. The Buffels baai is our best seller: an unusual combination of gin, elderflower syrup and litchi juice.

What an amazing find! So unique and absolutely awesome! Highly recommend a visit. Even though in an industrial area, there are thi gs to keep the little ones (and big ones!) amused! The beer is great as are the gin tasters.
8. The Cango Caves
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 4,151 reviews
Though damaged through shortsighted tourism schemes in the 1960s, these caves are still worth a visit for their eerie dark tunnels and stunning limestone formations.
Reviewed By magsboy - North Vancouver, Canada
The Cango Caves are well worth the visit to see to large underground caverns and the awesome geologic formations (we only did the Heritage Tour) and you can get some spectacular photos - we took the earliest available tour and glad we did because the tour buses were rolling up when we left and hordes of people were arriving - I do think they need to limit the numbers - and also enforce their requests for visitors not to sit and touch where they are asked not to!
9. Arbeidsgenot

From the turn of century to 1950 this charming museum was the home of the composer of South Africa’s first national anthem.
Reviewed By paulabQ1240CL - Kloof, South Africa
Despite the town being very busy preparing for the KKNK music festival, we had the most wonderful tour by an informed, enthusiastic and very knowledgeable guide. The house is a great window into how life was like and some of the driving forces behind the importance of Afrikaans becomming an official language in South Africa. We can all learn from the struggles of people who have gone before us in wanting their heritage and culture to be recognised. CJ Lagenhoven has so many stories to tell beyond those he wrote down.
