What to expect

Hout Bay
30m

A working fishing harbour under the Sentinel peak, and our first stop of the morning before the coaches arrive. Watch the seals around the boats, browse the craft market, or add an optional boat trip out to the Duiker Island seal colony at your own cost.
Chapman's Peak Drive
20m · Admission ticket included

One of the finest coastal roads in the country - 114 bends blasted into the cliff face between Hout Bay and Noordhoek. We stop at the viewpoints for photographs. The toll is covered in your fare.
Cape of Good Hope
45m · Admission ticket not included

Stand at the south-western tip of Africa where two oceans meet. Your guide walks you to the Cape of Good Hope sign for photographs and points out the baboons, eland and ostrich that roam the reserve.
Cape Point
1h 30m · Admission ticket not included

Ride the Flying Dutchman funicular or walk the path up to the old lighthouse for views over False Bay and the Atlantic. There is time for lunch at the restaurant or a guided walk down to the Cape of Good Hope.
Boulders Beach Penguin Colony
1h · Admission ticket not included

Walk the boardwalk above one of only two mainland African penguin colonies. The birds nest in the dune scrub a few metres from the path, and your guide explains the conservation work that brought the colony back from near collapse.
