What you'll do
Kick-off this excursion from Cape Town with an early morning departure. Your friendly and knowledgeable guide will likely pick you up from your accommodation and drive you past Cape Town University and through the charming neighborhood of Constantia. You'll likely head toward Ou Kaapse Weg in Noordhoek, an enchanting area just thirty minutes from Cape Town. Here, you may stretch your legs, grab a cup of coffee, and capture some photos of the beautiful surroundings.
Typically, you'll continue on with an hour-long drive to the Cape Point Nature Reserve, the next stop on your itinerary. Here, you may visit the famous Cape of Good Hope and the New Cape Point Lighthouse. Choose between a vigorous walk up the steep path or a funicular ride, whimsically named the Flying Dutchman, to the top. The reward? Spectacular 360-degree views of the ocean, both peninsula coastlines, dramatic cliffs, and the pristine Dias Beach below.
Next, it's common to continue north for about half an hour to Boulder's Beach, home to a charming penguin colony, where you can observe these adorable creatures and learn about their habits and habitat from your guide. After this encounter, it's time to whet your appetite with a delectable seafood lunch in the quaint fishing village of Kalk Bay. Once you've satisfied your palate, you may continue the journey a half hour north to the mesmerizing Boyes Drive above Muizenberg. This scenic drive offers fabulous photo opportunities and the chance to watch surfers skillfully riding the waves.
For the final destination, it's common to head to the Constantia Winelands district, where you can choose a winery to visit. Here, you can immerse yourself in a classic South African wine-tasting experience, savoring the flavors of the region. After a day filled with fun experiences and beautiful landscapes, you'll likely return to your accommodation in Cape Town just in time to enjoy a relaxing dinner.
