Johannesburg to George Travel Guide

George lies just north of the Western Cape of South Africa. The city itself is a low-key place – but it’s just a hop, skip and jump away from the dramatic coastline that kicks off the legendary Garden Route. This is one of the best road trips in the world – a swooping coastline of Indian Ocean vistas and soft sand beaches. Golf courses and a couple of mountain ranges paint the inland region.
But how easy is it to get a cheap flight from Johannesburg to George? Two words – really easy. A range of cheap direct flights take off from Johannesburg every day.

George is a South African city that doubles as a launchpad for one of the best drives in South Africa – the Garden Route. Ragged headlands and sandy beaches carve the coast, protected by marine reserves and animal-laden national parks. Look inland, and you’ll spy ostrich farms and ancient forests.
Just make sure to check out George before putting the city in your rear-view mirror. Moedergemeente Church and George Museum are great for a shot of culture. Then there’s the Garden Route Botanical Garden, where native plants bloom against a mountainous backdrop.
