DAY 1: CAPE TOWN
CAPE POINT/CAPE PENINSULA & PENGUINS TOUR
Today you join the Cape Point/Cape Peninsula & Penguis scheduled group tour.
This Peninsula Tour has been designed specifically with the all traveller in mind. Those travellers especially with the desire to see, learn and experience something different from the norm. We try to show all the unique histories, cultures and people that make Cape Town, Cape Town.
We begin the morning with a leisurely stroll along the cobbled streets and brightly coloured houses of the Bo Kaap before heading through the exclusive seaside suburbs of Clifton and Camps Bay where we have a short photo stop.
We then carry on along Victoria Drive, through Hout Bay and along the scenic Chapman’s Peak Drive eventually arriving at The Cape of Good Hope Nature Reserve (included) where we have a 40 minute hike from the most south west tip of Africa, Cape of Good Hope to the Cape Point Lighthouse. 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 (own expense)!
By this stage you would have built up quite an appetite so we will stop for lunch (own expense). 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 then travel through the lush Constantia Valley to the oldest wine farm outside of Europe for a relaxing end of the day wine tasting experience (own expense) where we also learn about the history of farming in the Cape in beautiful surroundings.
This tour requires a minimum group size to confirm/operate. If the minimum requirement for a departure is not reached the tour may be outsourced to a different tour supplier with a siimilar, but not exactly the same, tour.

DAY 2: CAPE TOWN TO SEDGEFIELD

We then make our way to another Private Game Reserve, Indalu, where you will have the opportunity to join for an optional Elephant Bush Walk (own expense). Indalu, the Xhosa word for ‘nature’, is set between the roaming hills and valleys and has been created as a sanctuary for a number of the gentle giants where they roam free in their natural environment.
