Overview
The 5 Day Best of Both (BOB) programme consists of an intensive and interactive Conversational English course followed by a specially designed tour itinerary to introduce you to both the animal kingdom of South Africa and allows time for some adrenaline filled activities.
You will visit Garden Route towns along the way and be exposed to situations where you will be expected to practise your new Conversational English skills. We call this Experiential Learning.
The highlights of our African Experience and Adrenaline Rush programmes have been combined to introduce you to the diversity of the Garden Route landscape on a journey where you will visit wildlife reserves in the arid Little Karoo and lush indigenous forests in a coastal reserve.
