Day 1: Table Mountain, Chapman's Peak, Cape of Good Hope Nature Reserveexpand_more
After pick up at your hotel, we will start with the Table Mountain experience where your personal guide/driver will take you up the cable car to explore the Tabletop.
After this, we will make our way through Mouille Point, Three Anchor Bay, Sea Point, Bantry Bay, Clifton and then a photo stop at Maiden's Cove.
We continue on through Camps Bay, then onto Hout Bay where you will have an hour to explore the harbour and/or optional boat trip for a Seal Island trip from Hout Bay. We do not recommend doing the Seal Island trip if the seas are rough as it becomes quite dangerous.
Once we depart from Hout Bay, we will make our way around the world-renowned Chapman's Peak. This road will be used subject to it being operational. We will stop off at the viewing point for a 15-minute photo stop. Please note that all clients are requested to stay within the demarcated spots throughout this tour to ensure safety.
We will have a quick stop in the Noordhoek area for you to enjoy an optional coffee at the Village Roast on your own account. Some of the best coffees in the city are brewed here.
We will continue our tour through Kommetjie, Misty Cliffs, Scarborough and thereafter, stop at the Ostrich Farm for a quick visit.
Once in the Cape of Good Hope Nature Reserve, we explore the Dias Cross, some fauna and flora and see the meeting point of the two currents namely the cold Benguela Current and the warm Agulhas Current. You may also encounter some baboons and other wildlife. We advise our guests not to get too close to the Baboons and avoid feeding them as these are wild animals and can therefore be dangerous. You can enjoy lunch at the Two Oceans Restaurant on your own account as well as take a trip up the funicular.
We will then continue on to Boulders Beach where you can visit one of Cape Town's largest Penguin Colonies.
Our return route will pass through Fish Hoek, Kalk Bay and Muizenburg. From here, we will visit our last stop at Groot Constantia Wine Estate for a private wine tasting experience where you will taste top wines produced at this world-renown winery.
