Cape Town: Cape Point, Table Mountain & Penguins Private Tour

Proceeding along the coastline, we will be greeted by views of pristine beaches of white sand and blue oceans in Noordhoek. Should you be a keen horse rider, we can arrange for a 1-hour horse ride on Noordhoek Beach. (Should you wish to take up this offer, please advise at time of booking your tour.) An optional stop at the Noordhoek Farm Village is on offer for some of the best coffee roasted on this side of Cape Town.

As we enter into the Cape of Good Hope's main gate we will drive for a short distance before we see the two navigational beacons with crosses on top of each one: The Dias Cross and da Gama Cross. These monuments were reconstructed to commemorate Vasco da Gama and Bartolomeu Dias as explorers who were the first to reach the Cape. A visit to the Cape of Good Hope is not complete without a photo behind the Cape of Good Hope name board.

Most visitors to the Cape of Good Hope take the option of a short hike to the Cape Point Lighthouse. However, should you prefer, you are welcome to take the Flying Dutchman Funicular to the lighthouse. Cape Point is the official meeting point of the two ocean currents: The Cold Benguela Current and the Warm Agulhas Current. The Cape Point and Cape of Good Hope have various species of fauna and flora. Baboons may seem cute, but we advise not to get too close to them as these are wild animals and can become dangerous. An optional lunch stop can be enjoyed either at the sit-down restaurant called the Two Oceans at Cape Point or a takeaway from the informal eatery. (Please advise at time of booking whether we can assist with a lunch reservation.)

We travel along the M6 main road towards Fish Hoek on route to Simon's Town to meet the monument of Just Nuisance and Boulder's Beach to visit the African Penguins Colony. Just Nuisance was a Great Dane Dog who made a name for himself in the South African Navy. Listen to some interesting stories about Just Nuisance from your tour guide. Then we visit the Penguins colony at Boulder's Beach. The African Penguins can be viewed from the boardwalks that make their way through the dunes and dense vegetation. You may even be fortunate enough to be greeted by one of these enchanting sea creatures along the boardwalk. Simon's Town and Boulder's Beach also presents lunch options at one of the sit-down restaurants or informal eateries. (Please advise at time of booking whether we can assist with a reservation.)

Our return route will be past Fish Hoek through Muizenberg where we will see the colorful beach huts. These beach huts are utilized by sunbathers and surfers for changing rooms. Drop off will be at your accommodation in Cape Town.
