Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product
Stop At: Bo-Kaap, Bo-Kaap, Western Cape
On our first stop we will explore Bokaap, one of the most history filled and creative side of Cape Town. This area is comprised of distinctive multi-coloured houses that are a mix of Cape Dutch and Georgian architecture along steeply cobbled roads. The choice of colour is believed to be attributed to the fact that while on lease, all the houses had to be white. When this rule was eventually lifted, and the Malay born slaves of the Cape were allowed to buy the properties, all the houses were painted bright colours by their owners as an expression of their freedom. There are many families in the Bo-Kaap that have been living there for generations. Today the Bo-Kaap community is a significant part of our cultural heritage and a photographer’s dream to get beautiful photos of colour, architecture, culture and fun.
Duration: 30 minutes
Stop At: Kirstenbosch National Botanical Garden, Rhodes Drive, Newlands 7735 South Africa
The Kirstenbosch National Botanical Gardens rest at the slopes of the majestic Table Mountain mostly made up of indigenous South African plants. The Kirstenbosch estate covers 528 hectares and supports a diverse fynbos flora and natural forest. First botanical garden in the world to be declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
On our visit we will walk along the paths towards the popular Boomslang, a canopy walkway which overlooks the gardens.
Duration: 30 minutes
Stop At: Boulders Beach Penguin Colony, Simon’s Town 7995 South Africa
We visit one of the few places in the world where you can experience penguins in the wild, freely sunbathing, swimming and hunting for fish. The Boulder’s Beach Penguin Colony beach is the home of over 2,000 endangered African penguins, and one of the few mainland penguin colonies in the world which allows visitors to get up close and personal with these cute and well-dressed birds who waddle on the beach but swim like champions in the water. Definitely one of the top attractions of Cape Town.
Duration: 45 minutes
Stop At: Cape of Good Hope, Cape Point Rd, Table Mountain National Park 8001 South Africa
We visit the Cape of Good Hope Nature Reserve, a World Heritage Site, and protected Nature Reserve filled with a festival of natural beauty, known for its natural vegetation and rich bio-diversity. We go visit the point where the sailors of the 15th century found hope in their search for a way to India via the ocean. You might also be lucky enough to find yourself on a mini-safari spotting some wild animals such as zebras, ostriches, baboons and other buck.
Duration: 1 hour
Stop At: Chapman’s Peak Drive, Hout Bay Road Between Noordhoek and Hout Bay, 7872 South Africa
No trip to Cape town is complete without a scenic drive along Chapman’s Peak Drive between Noordhoek and Hout Bay with majestic views of the Atlantic Coast. Chapman’s Peak Drive is affectionately known as “Chappies” and is in the top ten most scenic drives in the world. We’ll stop over for fresh air and capture some scenic views of Hout Bay.
