What to expect
Depending on weather and time of year we may simply drive through Kalk Bay without stopping, or sometimes stop in at a cafe for a morning coffee or grab a takeaway Fish & Chips for lunch at the harbour.
Jubilee Square & Jetty, Simon's Town
We drive through Simon's Town in order to visit Boulders Beach Penguin Colony, although some days we may visit Jubilee Square and the Just Nuisance statue on days when we have lunch at a Simon's Town restaurant.
We visit the main Boulders Beach Penguin Colony viewing decks within the Table Mountain National Park which a few thousand African Penguins call home. A walk along Willis Walk to the main swimming beach is something you'll do and in summer a swim here is wonderful!
We drive into the Cape of Good Hope section of the Table Mountain National Park en route to Cape Point where the lighthouses are located. We'll walk up to the view sites and then possibly down the Lighthouse Keepers' Trail to get a different angle if you're up for a walk. If we don't walk to the lighthouses we can walk out over Diaz Beach and then we'll let you continue towards the Cape of Good Hope (45min) at the same time that we drive around to pick you up at the end point.
Although we'll touch on the Cape of Good Hope 'proper' while in the Cape Point vicinity we'll be driving to a few different sites within the Cape of Good Hope section of the Table Mountain National Park. We'll look out for larger wildlife here such as Bontebok, Eland, Chacma Baboons and Ostriches among others.
Chapman's Peak Drive
This road is a classic! We'll usually cruise over Chapman's Peak Drive on the way back to Cape Town after a day on the Cape Peninsula where the views over Noordhoek Beach and Hout Bay are stunning!
The experience can be subject to change due to bad weather or unforseen circumstances. We always endeavour to give you the best possible experience.
