This is a great way to get an introduction to “the Mother City”, Cape Town.  Go for a tour in the city and surrounding area, including the city centre, Company’s Gardens, Cape Town Castle, the Bo Kaap, Signal Hill and the V&A Waterfront.  A big part of this tour is walking around the city with your guide getting to know the city, its different cultures, history and geography.  A highlight of the day is riding to the top of the famous Table Mountain in a cable car, for magnificent views over Table Bay, Robben Island, The Cape Peninsula and Lions Head.

You won’t believe the beautiful scenery you will experience in one day on the Cape Peninsula. We will start by driving to the beautiful Atlantic seaside suburbs of Clifton and Camps Bay, and see the Twelve Apostles. We will then take the coastal road to the Hout Bay harbor. After Hout Bay, onto a scenic drive up Chapman’s Peak, one of the best views in the region.  We will then travel on to the Cape of Good Hope, the furthest southwestern point in Africa.  We will have time for hiking to the Cape Point lighthouse, and have lunch in the Nature Reserve.  On our way back we will take the scenic route back to Cape Town via Vishoek and Muizenberg stopping to view the endangered African Penguin colony at Boulders Beach.

The Western Cape of South Africa is home to more than 500 wineries, and today we will visit a few of our favorites.  The tour will include one cellar tour, and tastings at three different wineries.  The winelands offer more than just wine though – there is also beautiful scenery and interesting history to enjoy along the way.
