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.
