African Pride Arabella Hotel & Spa
Whale Coast, South Africa
Day 4 - 5
After breakfast drive to Arabella Hotel & Spa where your next
adventure awaits. On-route to Arabella Hotel & Spa, you could
chose to drive past the whale watching mecca of Hermanus.

Acknowledged as the best land-based whale watching site in the
world, Hermanus even has an official whale-crier. Once hunted
almost to extinction, these gentle giants loll in the waters
within stone’s throw of the rocky shore, where one can sit and
commune      with    them      for   hours.   Originally   called
Hermanuspietersfontein after Hermanus Pieters, a teacher and
shepherd who used to graze his sheep in the area, the town’s
name was shortened in 1902 at the anguished request of the
local postmaster.

Put your feet up during your 2 night stay at Arabella Hotel &
Spa in a Deluxe Room with ensuite bathroom. Your stay includes
breakfast and a round of golf on the Arabella Golf Course.

Enjoy a round of golf at one of the top courses in the Western
Cape. Designed by celebrated South African golf course
architect Peter Matkovich, the Arabella Golf Club boasts a
classic parkland course with pristine fairways. Spectacular
views stretch across the Bot River Lagoon and on to the
Kogelberg Mountains. The Arabella Golf Club is home to the
Nelson Mandela Invitational Charity Golf Tournament, played by
the likes of Jack Nicklaus, Ernie Els and Retief Goosen. A
clubhouse provides relaxation after a stimulating round of golf,
while the pro shop is available for all golfing purchases and the
club also has an excellent practice area with two resident
teaching professionals.

Recommended activities (at additional cost):

         one of the most prestigious in South Africa and the
         treatments are sheer delight.

Fancourt Hotel
George, South Africa
Day 6 - 7
This morning drive up the renowned Garden Route to the
charming town of George and check in at the Fancourt Hotel.

Tucked between the breath-taking Outeniqua Mountains and
the Indian Ocean, George is the hub of the world-renowned
Garden Route, an area of spectacular forests, lakes, rivers and
mountains. The sixth oldest town in South Africa, George is
filled with reminders of its gracious past, such as the graceful
Drostdy building and the King Edward VII Library.

The Slave Tree, an ancient oak planted more than 180 years
ago, earned its name from the chain and lock embedded in its
trunk. George is also a mecca for golfers, with a number of golf
courses that consistently appear on the list of the country’s top
ten. Although George itself is not on the coastline, the secluded
beaches at nearby Victoria Bay are ideal for surfing, while the
holiday resort of Herold’s Bay offers large tidal pools and good
angling opportunities.

Relax during your 2 night stay at Fancourt Hotel in a One
Bedroom Suite with ensuite bathroom. Your stay includes
breakfast and a round of golf on the Outeniqua Golf Course.

Spend the second day enjoying the majestic parkland layout of
the Outeniqua Golf Course. One of the finest 18-hole parkland
layouts in the country, this is just one of three challenging
courses at the Fancourt Country Club. Designed by legendary
golfer Gary Player, its challenging layout and fine condition
make it an excellent test of golfing skill. With a variety of tees
from which to choose from, the course can provide an
outstanding experience for players of all levels. Sculpted and
finished with rare attention to detail, the course has also been
designed with the prevailing coastal winds in mind.

The spectacular Outeniqua Mountains in the background, as
well as a multitude of flowers and water features scattered
throughout the course, ensure the beauty of the setting. Should
you feel the need to brush up on your golfing skills, the warm-
up area features a full-length range, as well as a chipping and
bunker practice area.
