2. Clifton

Upmarket Camps Bay draws crowds to its namesake beach, known for its fine white sand, natural rock swimming pool and views of the Twelve Apostles mountains

Upon arrival at Hout Bay Harbour (which is a quaint fishing village), you have the option to board a boat cruise to the Cape Fur seal colony on Duiker Island (own expense), or spend free time browsing the local curio shops at the harbour.
5. Chapman's Peak
We then drive via Chapmans peak drive which offers the most mind blowing and breath catching views weather permitting.With sheer drops to the sea below and towering mountains rising above you. The twists and curves in the road seem endless and it is a photographers dream
6. Noordhoek Farm Village
“It’s amazing how the world begins to change through the eyes of a cup of coffee.” Why not stop for a cup or juice as we continue
7. Cape Point Nature Reserve
With a plethora of things to do and see – from the majestic mountains to the mighty ocean, not to mention the impressive flora and fauna in between. The mountain and ocean meet in a thunderous clash of water against rock, producing a dramatic landscape inhabited by an incredible diversity of life
8. Cape of Good Hope
No Cape Peninsular Tour is complete without a visit to the Cape of Good Hope (Africa’s most South Westerly tip), Hiking trails to the summit of the Cape makes for great activity and sightseeing

This town is home to the South African Navy's Naval Base. It is located on the shores of False Bay, on the eastern side of the Cape Peninsula. Get to witness the statue of a famous dog Just Nuisance, yes that’s right. He was the only dog ever officially enlisted in the mighty British Royal Navy. He made people smile at a time when smiles were really needed.

On this pristine beach, nestled amongst the huge Granite Boulders is a colony of around 2 000 endangered African Penguins. You will have the opportunity to take photos admire them closely
12. Kalk Bay

Our small group tour guide/driver, TALENT, was superb. He was personable, knowledgeable and fun. Due to the hugh numbers of tourists, he altered the order of the itinerary to visit the most popular places early thus reducing tourist numbers and traffic jams. This truly added another element to the tour which made it more enjoyable. All that was advertised was delivered in a most professional manner.This tour guide has talent and this is reflected in his name,TALENT.

Tinashe was a brilliant guide, he even introduced us to his favourite coffee shop.
The weather was great, a little windy perhaps ?

We even saw a couple of whales swimming along the coast. The troop of baboons sitting in the road did slow us down a little bit but it was worth it.

It was a good boat ride on the Atlantic Ocean to see the Seals habitat and Also went to see the Penguins on Boulders bay walking and swimming . The trip to the top of the cape on a funicular was quite an experience and the view from lighthouse and story of the wrecks in the museum Overall we were with good company and weather was good had a wonderful trip The stop at Simons town for food was also a good idea . Guide was a nice gentleman but more knowledge of our tour would have be useful He went all out of the way to show us everything although we started very late due to the marathon But he made sure he covered everything on the itinerary

This was our first experience in Cape Town as a family and Talent, our tour guide, quickly immersed us in all of the fun and history and unique areas of the city. We had an absolute blast. We were all cared for and enjoyed learning and making memories.

We had a brilliant day on the trip with our guide Tinashe who was friendly, knowledgable and good company all day. He collected us from our guesthouse in the morning about 08.30am and we stopped off at various places along the way, as per the itinerary. We hadn’t realised that it was a private tour when we booked and not sure whether this was because the weather forecast was poor so other people rescheduled or whether it was always a private tour. It was great though because we never felt rushed and got to spend as long as we liked in each place. Would thoroughly recommend.
