Adventure / Active Tours in South Africa

South Africa adventure tours

Adventure seekers will find plenty to keep them occupied in South Africa. Its long, diverse coastline, lush forests, rushing rivers and dramatic mountains and gorges provide ideal settings for exciting outdoor activities. Add to this the incredible wildlife adventures on offer in South Africa’s many national parks and game reserves, and you’ll see why our tours are so popular.

Guided Active Tours in South Africa

If you like water-based activities, South Africa has it all. Surfers, windsurfers and kitesurfers alike are spoiled for choice with prime spots in Cape Town, Durban and along the gorgeous Wild Coast. Water biking in Simon’s Town is a fun way to take to the waves while spotting seals and penguins. For snorkelling trips, Sodwana Bay in KwaZulu-Natal is hard to beat, with reefs home to countless species of exotically coloured fish. Or try kayaking on the beautiful Knysna Lagoon.

On dry land, trekking tours explore the country’s most attractive locations. Experienced hikers will embrace energetic multi-day treks like the Rhebok Trail in the Golden Gate Highlands National Park, where your exertions are rewarded with incredible sweeping mountain vistas and potential sightings of rhebok and zebra. The Drakensberg Amphitheatre hike, meanwhile, uses chain ladders built into the rock to reach the Sentinel Peak summit and affords staggering views of the surrounding landscape.

South Africa Adventure Holidays

South Africa offers a host of thrilling adventure experiences. You can go ziplining through the treetops on canopy tours at Tsitsikamma National Park or enjoy game drives and guided walking safaris at the magnificent Kruger National Park. If you like viewing marine life, you could book yourself on an exciting boat trip at Hermanus, the whale watching capital of the world, or even drop in on great whites on cage diving tours in Cape Town, Port Elizabeth or Durban.

There are fantastic adventure options available throughout the African continent. Check out all our African active tours to see the full range.
