Interact with outdoor stars at The Cape Outdoor Eco, Adventure and Travel Expo

You can ease your wanderlust by browsing the extensive range of tourism and travel exhibitors. Whether you are craving a quick getaway or are planning a long tour, the expo has something for all ages and tastes. From exotic India to MSC Cruises, to the delights of our neighbouring countries such as the Gondwana Collection of Namibian lodges, the Etosha National Park, the Okuvango River, and Kalahari Lodges, to an array of local South African jewels just waiting to be discovered, such as Tulbach, Olyvenbosch Olive Farm, KZN Wildlife, the Eastern Cape, Northern Cape or Cape Nature Conservation. The choices are endless. Stock up on gear and head out with Conqueror Trailers, Opposite Lock, Bushwakker Trailers, Bushlapa Caravans, Gecko Off-Road, Bantam Trailers and Great Track Campers and more.

The Outdoor Expo will also be bringing you plenty of ways to experience and interact with the true stars of the outdoors - the animals and wildlife of Africa. Events for the whole family will be held throughout the expo. Interact with the brave and loyal SA guide dogs, SPCA and the K9 Search and Rescue team, learn about rhino conservation efforts at the Palala Rhino Sanctuary stand, and find out more on the deadly dozen reptiles, if you dare. And if that wasn't enough to keep tails wagging, the Cape of Good Hope SPCA, K9 Search and Rescue and SA Guide Dogs, will be hosting an Outdoor Paw Parade during the Expo, on Sunday, 27 October at 10am.Bring your socialised furry friend to enjoy the fresh air with you on a 2km walk along the farm. Entry is included in the ticket price of the expo, although donations to the SPCA, SA Guide Dogs and K9 Search and Rescue are welcome and appreciated. For even more action and fun, plus a jolt of adrenaline, there will be exhibits from SA Bungee, a bungee bounce, paintball, bubble balls, live snake demonstrations, drop tower, and Monkey Town.

Plenty of chances to relax and be entertained

The expo has made sure that there are also plenty of chances to relax and be entertained. Good food, such as Kobus Se Gat Boerekos and other tasty treats, go hand in hand with craft beers and Obikwa wine. Enjoy the feast to the sounds of Cat Simoni, the girl with the golden voice, who will be singing a variety of popular hits to get toes tapping on the 26th and 27th. The Outdoor Expo is also partnering the Look and Feel Good Expo, which is packed with everything health, beauty, fitness and wellbeing related. One ticket allows entry into both expos.
