What to expect

  1. Cheetah Outreach - Somerset West
    2h · Admission ticket included
    The Cheetah Outreach in Somerset West is a unique and conservation-focused sanctuary dedicated to raising awareness about cheetahs and other vulnerable species.

    Overview & Mission

    Cheetah Outreach is an educational and community-based facility primarily focused on the conservation and survival of the free-ranging Southern African cheetah. It operates with a strong ethical foundation and partners with cheetah ambassadors to raise public awareness and funding .

    Founded in 1997 by Annie Beckhelling, it started with just two cheetahs and has since grown into a well-known and evolving conservation effort .

    Beyond its on-site work, the organization also engages in environmental education in schools, community outreach, and farming areas, including livestock guardian dog programs to mitigate predator–farmer conflict .
  2. Hermanus Cliff Path
    3h · Admission ticket not included
    Hermanus is a picturesque coastal town on the southern coast of the Western Cape South Africa. Nestled between the majestic Overberg mountains and the deep blue waters of Walker Bay, it is often called the “Whale Capital of the World.”

    Why Hermanus?

    Walker Bay’s unique geography creates calm, sheltered waters, perfect for the Southern Right Whales that migrate here from Antarctica every year between June and November.

    The town is famous for offering some of the best land-based whale watching on the planet, where whales can be seen just meters from the shore.

    Land-Based Viewing

    The Hermanus Cliff Path stretches for about 12 km along the coast, providing excellent natural vantage points.

    From benches, rocky viewpoints, or even restaurant terraces, visitors often spot whales breaching, spyhopping, or tail-slapping—sometimes less than 50 meters away.

    Boat-Based Whale Watching

    Several licensed operators run eco-friendly boat tours, taking guests closer to the giants of the ocean.
  3. Benguela Cove Lagoon Wine Estate
    1h · Admission ticket not included
    Stop for an optional wine testing at Benguela Cove Lagoon Wine Estate. A premier wine tourism and lifestyle estate situated in the heart of the Walker Bay wine region, approximately 18 km from Hermanus and about an hour’s drive from Cape Town International Airport . Spanning 200–220 hectares, it encompasses vineyards, olive groves, luxurious accommodation, dining venues, and activity zones—all framed by lagoon, ocean, and mountain views .
  4. Stony Point Nature Reserve
    30m · Admission ticket not included
    Appreciate the beautiful Jacas African penguins in their natural environment at this beautiful nature reserve while en route to Hermanus.
