Cape Town Scenic Day Tour By Car

Our tour will commence with a 30-minute exploration of the vibrant Bo-Kaap houses. During this segment, we'll offer you a concise guided journey through the district, illuminating its rich history and its profound significance in relation to the era of Apartheid.

Here we stop for a brief tour of the iconic monument dedicated to the renowned industrialist Cecil John Rhodes. We will provide some insights into Rhodes' historical significance and enjoy the monument's location at the base of Table Mountain, offering stunning views of Cape Town's famous Cape Flats. This spot is perfect for capturing memorable photos.

At Muizenberg Beach, we pause to enjoy the refreshing sea breeze at one of Cape Town's most picturesque beaches, known for its distinctive and colorful changing rooms. Take a leisurely stroll along the shore and capture some beautiful photos.

Our next stop is Boulder's Beach, home to the African Penguin. Stroll along the boardwalk for close-up views of these charming birds—you might even spot some walking beside you. Renowned as one of South Africa's best beaches, Boulder's Beach is perfect for capturing memorable photos with the penguins.

Before reaching the main attraction of our tour, we'll visit the Cape Point Ostrich Farm. Enjoy a guided tour detailing the life cycle of ostriches, from egg to adult bird. The farm also features a reptile park showcasing some rare species. Feel free to have lunch at the on-site restaurant, where you can savor ostrich meat and eggs, before we continue to Cape of Good Hope.

Known as the corner of Africa where the cold Atlantic and warm Indian Oceans converge, the Cape of Good Hope is the most southwesterly point of the continent. Explore scenic hiking trails that lead to breathtaking viewpoints and the famous Cape of Good Hope sign. Although Cape Point is often referred to as the meeting point of the two oceans, it is actually where the warm Agulhas current and the cold Benguela current meet. You can walk or take a funicular (at your own cost) to South Africa's third oldest lighthouse, offering a stunning 360-degree view of the national park. This lighthouse, launched in 1860, was decommissioned after 40 years due to its high altitude, which posed a danger to sailors in cloudy weather. A new lighthouse was built at a lower altitude for safer navigation.

From Cape Point, we'll embark on a scenic drive along Chapman's Peak, a stunning coastal route showcasing Cape Town's natural beauty. This road is celebrated as an engineering marvel. We'll make stops for photos, allowing you to take in the breathtaking views of the Atlantic Ocean, dramatic cliffs, and pristine white sandy beaches.

On our way back to the CBD, we'll stop in Hout Bay, renowned for its stunning coastline and Seal Island, home to 5,000 Cape fur seals. You can choose to take a 40-minute boat ride for a scenic tour around the island to view the seals up close. If you prefer not to take the boat trip, you can explore the local craft market or enjoy a short 10-minute walk to Hout Bay Beach. Please note that this optional activity may extend the tour by an hour.

Our final stop is Camps Bay, often referred to as the Beverly Hills of Cape Town. Depending on your interests, we can stop at various points such as Maiden's Cove, where you can capture stunning photos of Table Mountain, Clifton, Camps Bay, and the famous Twelve Apostles mountains. On a good day, you might even spot whales, sharks, dolphins, and seals from these locations. From here we will drive past Bantry Bay, getting us back to the Cape Town CBD.
