Any countries except SA are not an option unfortunately - couple of people in our group do not have visa free entry anywhere in that region and getting visas from South Africa are enough hassle already.
The Cape Town - Namibia route is more about the journey, rather than any specific destination. Lots of beautiful scenery along the way. But given you cannot enter any other countries in the region, I'd suggest sticking to the Garden route. Whole length is perfectly safe and plenty of great stop off points all the way from Cape Town to Port Elizabeth. I wouldn't suggest going past East London as the road conditions get significantly worse.
