Detailed itinerary

1
Stop 1 Pass by

Clifton, Camps Bay and Twelve Apostles Mountains:

Departing from Cape Town, we will take you along Victoria Road, from Sea Point to Llandudno. You will go through Clifton, with its luxurious houses and just below, four beaches each having its fans. For example, the second one is most popular for students and sportsmen, whereas the fourth one, easiest of access is more for families and an older population. Just after, Camps Bay is a stunning place, well known for its beach surrounded by the Twelve Apostles Mountain Range. This is a nice place to relax during the day and lively at night with bars and restaurants. You might have the chance to see surfers on the right side of the beach.

Stop 2 Pass by

Llandudno and Hout Bay:

At the Atlantic Ocean’s edge, Llandudno is an amazing beach and a surf spot. Just after you will stop about an hour in Hout Bay, a charming harbour where you can savor one of the best Fish&Chips in the world. The other main attraction is the seal’s island called Duiker Island. You can decide to go on a cruise in order to see the playful and diverting animals in their natural environment or to stroll to the harbour and its market.

Stop 3 Pass by

Chapman’s Peak Drive:

It’s one of the favorite spots for tourists thanks to its amazing view overlooking the coast. While appreciating the scenery, don’t forget to carefully scan the horizon. Indeed, during the winter whales come along the South African coast to give birth to their calves and marvel us for the delight of all.

4

Noordhoek:

Noordhoek is a charming village, literally meaning “North Corner”, located below Chapman’s Peak and is well known for its horse farms. Its wild and protected beach is also an attractive feature, especially because it is a place near Cape Town where it is allowed to go horse-riding.

5
Stop 5

Cape of Good Hope Nature Reserve:

It represents a 7,750 ha area inside the Table Mountain National Park. It has a rich biodiversity, so perhaps you will be lucky enough to see bucks, baboons or zebras and several of the over 250 species of birds. Driving on the bumpy roads through the park, enjoy the wonderful landscapes and the beautiful light. Of course, don’t miss the stop and the traditional photo at the famous Cape of Good Hope.

Stop 6

Cape Point:

Cape Point is a magical place immersed in history and legend. This must-see offers an amazing view, overhanging the ocean several hundreds of meters high. Breathe deeply the clean air! You can go the red and white lighthouse located at the top of the Da Gama Peak, at 249 meters above the sea-level. It is easy to reach by foot or with “The Flying Dutchman” Funicular.

7
Stop 7

Simon's Town and Penguin Colony:
On the eastern coast of the Cape Peninsula is the small city of Simon’s Town which was a British for a long time, as demonstrated by the architecture and Victorian-style houses. Driving along the ocean by the coastal road, you will see the harbour and the South African Navy School. A bit further, the Boulder Penguin Colony is the perfect place to see African Penguins. It is a protected area for this threatened species, where they go along with the crowd of pictures. You’ll also have a wonderful view of False Bay!

8

Muizenberg:

Taking the M3, toward Cape Town via Muizenberg, you will see the colorful beach huts. Reputedly, it is the birthplace of surfing in South Africa, so is a special place for all those who want to try this sport. It is a lovely place during the summer and the beach is very much appreciated by local people and tourists for swimming.
