At your hotel
Pick up at your accommodation after you enjoyed a hearty Cape Town breakfast.
Enjoy a 5 minute cable car drive up to the World's New Seven Wonder and experience a 360 tour while going up. Enjoy a cooldrink from the top restaurant, have a look through the telescopes to see in the far distance and just enjoy the local mountain fauna and flora.
We will drive along the coast via Camps Bay, pass the 12 Apostles, Clifton and more beautiful mountain and ocean scenes. There are great lookout points for photos, memories and just to enjoy the sun and stretch the legs.
This is a historical Naval town with lots of history and also the home of the African Penguins - used to be known as jackass penguins. They’re the only penguins found on the continent. Be prepared for being charmed....
We are having a "fishy" lunch at the best restaurant with the greatest views in Simons Town. Enjoy some cold South African wines and local seafood while watching the ocean and mountains.
Relax and let the flavours of the lunch and wine keep you drowsy while we leave on Old Kaapse Weg to one of the world's best known botanical gardens.
The Kirstenbosch National Botanical Garden is world-renowned for the beauty and diversity of the Cape flora and for the magnificent setting against the eastern slopes of Table Mountain. The Botanical Garden lies on an estate that covers 528 hectares and contains more than 7,000 plant species, or types. A diverse fynbos flora and natural forest with easy walkways and look out for South Africa’s national flower – the King Protea that will show her beauty to you.
Travel back on Nelson Mandela Boulevard to bring you safe and sound to your hotel where you can have a colourful sundowner, go through all your souvenirs and if still hungry - enjoy a dinner that only South Africa can prepare.

I am at home and can do short day tours on short notice if that is in the Garden Route area - Swellendam to Mossel Bay.
If I need to pick up at Cape Town Airport I will need three days in advance and there will be an additional transportation fee.
I have travelled a great deal around the world and different cultures and food is the highlight in my life. I have decided to change to this way of living and if I can share my knowledge, experience, humor and being your best tour guide ever, why not? South Africa is a great warm captivating country - and so am I. I have experience and knowledge in Culture Sites, but the Winelands, Karoo, Namaqualand and the beaches all fall in my interests and expertise.
