Full description

You’ll be picked up at your Cape Town accommodation in the morning by a qualified tour guide/driver in a luxury minibus, and taken on an all-inclusive, full-day Cape Peninsula tour.

Drive along the scenic coastal route with the mountains on one side and the ocean on the other, and see what makes this coastline so special. Pass through Bantry Bay, Clifton, Camps Bay, and Llandudno beaches along Chapman's Peak drive and enjoy a photo stop at Maiden's Cove.

In Hout Bay, you’ll have the option of taking a boat to Seal Island to get a closer look at the seal population (not included in the tour price).

After exploring the harbor in Hout Bay, your tour continues on to Noordhoek village for an optional stop to try the best coffee roasted this side of the Cape (cost not included).

The next stop is at the Cape of Good Hope Nature Reserve and Cape Point, where you'll explore the reserve, see the Dias Beacon, and also where the two currents meet. You can hike up to the top to see the Cape Point Lighthouse or take the Funicular (cost not included).

From Cape Point, you’ll continue on toward Boulders Beach and stop to see the penguin colony. Enjoy the scenic Boyes Drive and see Kalk Bay and Muizenburg.

A great tour with Reagan. We spent a full day exploring Cape Point, The Cale if Good Hope plus Boulders Beach penguins and a boat trip to Sea, Island plus other view points along the way. Excellent value for money with a hotel pick up included. Reagan was very helpful to my husband who has limited walking .

We booked the tour but unfortunately my daughter got sick and we had to cancel at the tour date. But they manage to arrange and switch the date for us so that we would not miss the tour. The tour includes most important places in peninsula, our guide James was perfect he was fun, knowledgeable, kind, good driver, helpful etc. The bus was comfortable they pick you up from your hotel and leave you at the end.
