Day 1: Cape Town: Ultimate Cape Point Tour
After being picked up from your accommodation, we begin the morning with a leisurely stroll along the cobbled streets and brightly coloured houses of the Bo Kaap where you have the opportunity to take some pictures. We then head through the exclusive seaside suburbs of Clifton and Campsbay where we have a short photo stop too. We carry on along Victoria drive, through Houtbay and along the scenic Chapmans Peak Drive eventually arriving at The Cape of Good hope Nature Reserve where we have a 40 minute hike from the most south west tip of Africa, Cape of Good Hope to the Cape Point Light House. We then start driving north to Boulder Beach Penguin colony, where you can view them from the boardwalk and, should you wish, go inside to view them even closer (optional extra). By this stage you would have built up quite an appetite so we will stop for lunch (own account). After everyone has had their fill, we stop briefly at the Shark Spotter, entrusted by the local surfers of Muizenberg to look out for Great White Sharks. We continue to travel through the lush Constantia Valley to the oldest wine farm outside of Europe for a relaxing end of the day wine tasting experience (optional extra) where we also learn about the history of farming in the Cape in beautiful surroundings before we drop you off at your accommodation in Cape Town.
