We invite you to escape to the beauty of the majestic Overberg and explore the Breede River near Swellendam in the Western Cape. Passing through Swellendam, the third oldest town in South Africa, you'll see some of the finest examples of old Cape Dutch architecture.

Join Felix Unite's river specialists for an exciting weekend adventure at one of their three unique base camps established along the Breede River, just 2½ hours drive from Cape Town. No river rafting experience is necessary and full instructions are given.

This is African tranquility at its best—glorious days rafting the Breede, with daylight fading into unforgettable sunsets. A time to socialize around the campfire after each thrilling day on the river, and feast on mouthwatering cuisine.

Arrive at the river camp at which you'll be staying in the late afternoon. You'll be met by your guides and shown to your accommodation. Relax with snacks and sundowners before feasting on a delicious dinner prepared for you by your guides.
