Cape Peninsula Scenic Highlights
From 08:15 AM to ±18:00 PM:
Journey to Cape Point along the scenic Atlantic Seaboard Coastal Road.
Pass by the pristine beaches of Clifton and Camps Bay, with their soft white sand and blue waters. See the formidable 12 Apostles Peaks rise above the road on one side, while sheer cliffs and incredible rock formations drop into the icy Atlantic Ocean on the other. There is no doubt that the coast of the Cape Peninsula offers magnificent scenery and great biodiversity.
Arrive at the quaint fishing village of Hout Bay with its imposing Sentinel.
Visit Seal Island (own account) or shop for souvenirs at the craft market at the harbour.
The tour then continues over Chapman's Peak, which offers amazing photo opportunities.
Next stop is the Cape of Good Hope Nature Reserve, where you can witness the magnificent 'fynbos', different species of buck and birds, the Cape mountain zebra, and the mischievous baboons. These creatures entertain guests enjoying lunch at the restaurant here, which promises splendid views of False Bay.
Take the funicular (own account) to the lighthouse to see the Atlantic and Indian Oceans meeting at Cape Point.
A photo stop at the Cape of Good Hope is a 'must', and our guide will do his best to assist in capturing that special moment for you.
Next, visit Boulders Beach to see the Jackass penguins (own account).
Arrive at the naval base of Simon's Town.
Then venture inland to the last stop of the day at Kirstenbosch Botanical Gardens. With the sun setting over the tall peaks of Table Mountain, the last rays sparkle on the trees and flowers, offering a fitting end to a day filled with all that the Cape has to offer.
