Lying at the Eastern foot of fabled Table Mountain, Kirstenbosch National Botanical Garden is acclaimed as the most beautiful garden in Africa and one of the great botanic gardens of the world. Founded by botanist Harold Pearson in 1913 on land bequeathed to the nation by Cecil Rhodes, the 36-hectare garden is part of a 528-hectare estate that contains protected mountainside supporting natural forest and fynbos along with a variety of animals and birds.
Cape Town guide, Clive de Bruyne, and an expert member of the Kirstenbosch staff will walk us through this botanical wonderland.
