Short on time but desperate to see the Cape of Good Hope? This half-day tour – escorted by a private guide, who’ll come to your hotel or villa – is the answer.
You’ll first be introduced to the affluent, beachy suburbs of Camps Bay and Llandudno before arriving at Hout Bay Harbour, where you can either scoff some of the planet’s best fish-and-chips or ride a boat out to Seal Island.
Next up is the world-famous Chapman's Peak Drive, which navigates an incredibly-engineered mountain pass to reach the iconic headland of Cape Point. Try not to max out your photo-storage facilities, though, as the return journey stops at Boulder's Beach to meet its penguin colony.
After that come the quaint seaside towns of Simon's Town, Kalk Bay and St. James before you’re returned home, wondering how on earth to top that during the afternoon. A half day City and Table Mountain tour perhaps?!
The Best of South Africa Travel map displays the locations of the destinations and accommodation that we have selected and visited; for each item, hovering over or clicking the marker will display a short summary and photo of that place or hotel, and hotel pricing. Follow the links in the info box to the full page listing which has much more information.
Note that the online map offers both a satellite view (click satellite in the top right) and, for some locations, a street level view (Drag the person in the top left onto the map). These let you explore the country; and when you wish to explore in person, or if you have any questions about the places you see, give our staff a call, or request a quote. Our staff regularly visit the places and accommodation that we feature.
When you book a holiday with us we will provide full driving instructions for reaching your accommodation, where necessary; these can be used by yourself, or you could enjoy the luxury of a driver. Alternatively we will arrange private (car rather than coach) transfers for you; helicopter transfers are also possible for some destinations.
