Francis Brennan’s Grand Tour South Africa

Francis Brennan’s Grand Tour South Africa

Ireland’s best known and most loved hotelier Francis Brennan is back on the road. He’s taking a break from his five star hotel to act as a tour guide to twelve paying guests who are about to embark on a surprise trip of a lifetime. The series kicks off with Francis’s guests gathering at Dublin Airport where their mystery destination is revealed – South Africa. Francis has organised a thirteen day epic tour starting in Johannesburg, where they visit Soweto, before heading south. In the Eastern Cape they experience a once-in-a-lifetime safari experience, followed by a drive down the world famous Garden Route (with a surprise bungee jump) ending up in beautiful Cape Town. As always, there’s a mixed bunch of guests on the Grand Tour – with ages ranging from an 83 year old great grandmother to a 23 year old, with occupations from dog groomer to pest controller. Can Francis manage to keep this unlikely crew happy and on schedule?
