THE WORLD IN ONE DESTINATION

THE GARDEN ROUTE AND
KLEIN KAROO IS FILM FRIENDLY!

The Garden Route and Klein Karoo has the ability to sell locations (TV, Film, Commercials) competitively to the industry, and the region is ideally placed to not only manage any overflows from other filming destinations, but to become a major player in its own right in the industry. The South African Film Industry has seen 450 films shot since 2008, generating R2.2bn since 2003. The Garden Route and Klein Karoo has a competitive advantage with its multiple localities and is able to package and offer a wide range of locations (forests, vineyards, mountains, farms, tree houses, tented camps, dams, rivers, beaches, airport, railway, game lodges, caves, heritage sites & buildings, industrial areas which is broader than just it’s internationally recognized natural advantages).
