Itinerary for the Cape Town Essentials tours

Day 1: Cape Town City tour

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.

Day 2: Cape Winelands tour

The Western Cape of South Africa is home to more than 500 wineries, and today we will visit a few of our favourites. The winelands offer more than just wine though – there is also beautiful scenery and interesting history to enjoy along the way. We typically visit the following three wineries, but we like to consult with our clients on the day to tailor the stops to their tastes. • Villiera is a family-run winery in the Stellenbosch region, well known for their excellent Cap Classique (sparkling wine), as well as their environmental initiatives. • Babylonstoren is one of the oldest Cape Dutch Farms, with a fruit and vegetable farm of great diversity, inspired by the famous Company’s Garden of the Cape. • Delaire Graff Estate is the ultimate in luxury, a world-class destination for wine in a stunning setting.
