What you can expect

Start your day with pickup from your hotel in Cape Town. Drive along the scenic False Bay coastline on your way to the penguin colony at Boulders Beach.

Passing through Muizenberg Beach, see the stretch of attractive colourful beach huts in the distance. Stop at St. James Beach for a few minutes to allow for some fun-filled photos with the colourful beach huts. Then, drive past Kalk Bay, Fish Hoek, and Simon's Town beaches.

Make a stop at Boulders Beach to see African penguins in their natural habitat. Walk along the boardwalk to Boulders Penguin Colony, home to approximately 3000 penguins who spend their days frolicking in the waters of False Bay and parading on the granite boulders.

End the tour with the highlight of the day, The Cape of Good Hope and Cape Point Nature Reserve. Explore the nature reserve whilst your guide shares stories about the Bartholomew Dias and Vasco Da Gama beacons.

See fauna and flora such as fynbos (fine bush), over 250 species of birds including ostriches, as well as buck, baboons, and the Cape mountain zebra. Finally, follow the scenic coastal Old Cape Road back to Cape Town.
