About this experience

Traveling more than 50 km along the breathtaking coastlines of Table Bay and False Bay, the tour offers extraordinary and multifaceted natural beauty.

Famous bikini beaches in Clifton and Camps Bay are sheltered by a range of beautiful mountains, such as Lion’s Head, Table Mountain, and the Twelve Apostles.

From the V&A Waterfront harbor and waterfront precinct, called "The Jewel of the City”, travel through the “Most Scenic Drive in Cape Town"—Chapman’s Peak Drive—to the infamous Cape of Good Hope and Cape Point, with a deviation towards the African Penguins’ Colony, with the option to enjoy wine tasting at Groot Constantia, the oldest wine farm in SA.

The Peninsula Tour is without doubt a better way to explore and discover the beauty of the Cape and her surroundings. The itinerary is customizable within the boundaries of the excursion.
