Overview

If you only have one full day to see Cape Town this is your best chance.
Table Mountain first thing. Its the best time around sunrise. Then a short city visit followed by a tour down the mountainous and scenic Cape Peninsula through picturesque Hout Bay and the cliff clinging Chapmans Peak drive with the crashing waves far below to the wild nature reserve with Cape Point and Cape Of Good Hope and the meeting of the Indian and Atlantic Oceans.
Then back through the naval port of Simonstown to join the Penguins on Boulders Beach. If time allows we will finish with a visit to a centuries old wine farm.
We can start as early as 7.00am to get in all of this or as much as we can.
This tour is for those who have only one full day to spare to see this wondrous city.

What to expect

  1. Table Mountain Aerial Cableway
    2h · Admission ticket included
    We usually start with Cape Town's iconic mountain. Ascending it and enjoying the unrivalled view from the top of mountain, sea and city is a lifetime memory. It is however weather dependent and so will have to be bypassed for later in the day or even another day should the cableway be closed because of wind or cloud visibility.
  2. Camps Bay
    Pass by
    Travelling along the coast southwards we encounter the fashionable sea front of Camps Bay, South Africa's Cannes or Nice you might say. Expensive open top sports vehicles are numerous outside the streetside cafes and many of Cape Towns top restaurants and hotels are here. You will also go along a stretch of "billionaires mile" where magnificent villas ascend the steeply sloping coast in stepping stone fashion. The road is sometimes right on the seas edge, villas left and sea scape to the right
  3. Hout Bay
    1h
    The fishing village and port of Hout Bay lies on where the road southwards attractively curves around a bay and ascends a cliff where later you can stop and take in the view of its picturesque location. From here, weather permitting you can take a short boat trip to small rocky island to see some of the huge numbers of seals that inhabit local waters. If you wish our guide can time this trip so you can have the freshest fish lunch caught that very day. The local delicacy is called Snoek and is high in all those omega oils that your body needs but there is also white fish and shellfish and mussels.
  4. Chapman's Peak Drive
    20m
    From Hout Bay the road curves up and around Chapmans Peak Drive. The road ascends the steep edge of the coast to a view point at the top giving a magnificent view of Hout Bay harbour with its yachts and fishing boats and the heavily populated Seal Island at it mouth and the back of Table Mountain. This is where we make our first stop to stretch your legs, breath in some mountain and sea air and take some pictures of one of the world's most beautiful stretches of coastline
  5. Cape Point Nature Reserve
    2h · Admission ticket included
    Cape Point Nature Reserve, most southerly nature reserve on the continent harbors many iconic creatures of Africa as well as the Cape of Good Hope and Cape Point dividing Indian and Atlantic Oceans ZAR 500.00 per person
  6. Boulders Beach Penguin Colony
    1h · Admission ticket included
    Boulders ( Penguins ) Beach. Get up close and even swim with the African Penguins that find this beach irresistible to nest and to launch themselves to swim from the giant boulders at the waters edge ZAR 200.00 per person
  7. Seal Island
    1h · Admission ticket included
    Seal Island Boat Trip. Take a trip from the beautifully located fishing port of Hout Bay to see the astounding number of seals that occupy the waters that surround the scenic peninsula
