The Best of the Cape Tour is an intensive full day, but the best if you want to be sure you do not miss anything!
From the city of Cape Town, enjoy the trip along the winding coastal road and take in the spectacular view between ocean an mountains. This day is also a fantastic way to see the diverse fauna and flora that the Peninsula has to offer: birds, baboons, ostriches, dassies,… Keep your eyes wide-open to not miss the opportunity to see them all along the trip.
South of the Peninsula, a breath of clean fresh air is quite simply fortifying! Cape Point offers an amazing sight of the Atlantic Ocean, which gives you the impression of running the world. Below, at the legendary Cape of Good Hope, you will be able to feel the energy from the Atlantic Ocean and walking in the steps of the first explorers from long ago.
The trip continues along the eastern side of the Peninsula leading to the Wine Route. On the road, Simon’s Town and its charming alignment of Victorian houses will take you to the Boulders Penguin Colony, where you will be lucky to see these little animals living freely. Progressively, the scenery changes to make way for great stretches of vineyards, under the beautiful light of the receding sun. What better to end a fabulous day than a glass of the famous South African Pinotage, with a piece of cheese, in a typical Wine Estate?
