WHAT'S INCLUDED

WHAT TO EXPECT

1. Cape Town Central
Our tour starts with a pick up at your accommodation in Cape Town and surrounding areas at 9:00am (flexible) on this private tour to Cape of Good Hope and Boulders Penguins colony. We begin with a brief drive-by city orientation tour to see important monuments and building in the city centre.
2. Bo-kaap
From there we will stop in the Bo-Kaap (Cape Malay Quarter) for a photo opportunity with colorful houses, which carries great historical significance. You may even have a chance to greet some of the locals if they are in sight. Your tour guide will inform you about the colourful houses and their historical meaning.
3. Camps Bay
We take a scenic drive along the Atlantic Seaboard with the mountains on one side and the ocean on the other, passing through Three Anchor Bay, Bantry Bay, Clifton and stop in Camps Bay. Maiden's Cove is the perfect spot for you to create memories with spectacular photos as you marvel at the magnificent views of the Twelve Apostles and Camps Bay beach. This cove is one of the best places in Cape Town to take panoramic photos of the Ocean, Camps Bay Beach combined with the views of Table Mountain, Lion's Head and the beautiful suburbs of Clifton, Camps Bay, etc... We call this the Kodak moment.
4. Seal Island
Should you choose to take the optional boat trip to Seal Island, the duration will be 45-minutes. This excursion is weather-permitting. Please take along a light jersey because the temperatures tend to drop when we are at sea.
5. Hout Bay
Travelling along the Atlantic scenic seaboard we will pass through Llandudno, famous for some of the most expensive real estate in South Africa, until we get to Hout Bay. Arrive at Hout Bay harbour, you will have the option to either take a 45-minute boat cruise to Seal Island to view the seals or you can do some shopping at the market.
6. Chapman's Peak Drive
Departing from Hout Bay, we drive along Chapman's Peak and stop at the viewpoint for spectacular photos. It is little wonder that Chapman's Peak is one of the most scenic routes in the world.
7. Noordhoek Farm Village
We continue our coastal journey with an optional stop in Noordhoek, with the breathtaking views of Noordhoek and Long Beach beneath us. Travelers will have the option to enjoy some of the best coffee brewed in Cape Town at the Village Roast for their own account.
8. Cape Point Vineyards Tasting Room
An optional stop for wine tasting at the exquisite Cape Point Vineyards will be offered. Surrounded by beautiful vineyards and views of the ocean in the distance, Cool breezes from the sea make for a slow-growing season, with a late harvest that results in a truly unique Sauvignon Blanc that is recognized across the globe for its rich minerality, structure, and tone. An optional sit-down lunch in their restaurant or a picnic lunch overlooking the man-made dam comes highly recommended.
9. Cape of Good Hope
We explore the Cape of Good Hope and take our iconic photo with the Cape of Good Hope name board. Here we will also explore the Dias & Vasco Da Gama monuments. There are also beautiful beaches that you will see along the way, as well as various fauna and flora.
10. Old Cape Point Lighthouse
From the Cape of Good Hope we will drive to Cape Point. Arriving at Cape Point we will have a choice between a 15-minute hike or take the Flying Dutchman Funicular to the Cape Point Lighthouse. Here we will also explore the most south-western point of Africa, known as the Cape Point, where the cold Benguela from the Atlantic Ocean, meets the warm Agulhas current of the Indian Ocean.
11. Boulders Beach Penguin Colony
Our next stop will be the Penguins colony in Boulders beach, where your guide will escort you to the viewing point to see some of the 2500 breeding pairs of African Penguins at close range. You may even find one or two of these enchanting creatures walking alongside you on the boardwalk.
12. Muizenberg Beach
Our return route is past Muizenberg where you will see the colored beach huts. The beach huts are used as changing rooms. These are reminiscent of the “bathing machine” of the 1800s, which was a cart-like structure that was wheeled down to the water’s edge, allowing the ladies to change into their bathing costumes.
13. Cape Town Central
Drop off will be back at guests' accommodation in Cape Town at approximately 18:00 pm.

Hands down one of the best tours we’ve ever done! Alex picked us up at the port and we saw and did so much! We drove through the city and Bo-kaap first and then headed towards Chapman’s Peak. We stopped in more places than I can remember. Totally organized our stops to see all the highlights, tons of fantastic photos and every time the fog lifted we found spots to pull over to get shots of the mountains and coastline! With two of us using walkers and poc’s we were able to plan things we could access and Alex’s knowledge and experience was perfect. We stopped at Noordhoek Farm Village for coffee and then more scenic views as we headed to Cape Good Hope. We saw several animals along the way and also in the Cape Point Nature Reserve. Wild pigs, ostriches, eland and baboons. We stopped at several spots and had lunch by the funicular. Lunch was delicious but fog refused to lift so we couldn’t see the lighthouse. Headed to Boulder Beach and the penguins. Everywhere we went Alex knew the history and was able to answer all of our questions. We headed back to the port a different way so saw several more coastal towns, Constantia wine region and then the M3 back into the city.

The tour was a great way to see a lot of the Cape highlights in one day without the stress of driving yourself. Our tour guide Morne was very insightful and it was a pleasure to have him as a driver. Money well spent

Oh my, where do I begin? It’s the nature. It’s the wildlife. It’s the amazing food and the super friendly and knowledgeable tour guide! It’s everything you’ll ever want from a day trip. We saw everything from penguins to seals, antelopes and ostriches, and of course lots of different birds. We’ve seen views that were unrivalled by any other place on Earth. We but the crowded buses too, so I had almost exclusive access to all of the stunning destinations! Special thanks to my driver Mark who made this an unbelievably amazing journey!
