Cape Town City Tour

Click to open imageWe recommend the full day tour for a first overview of Cape Town. In case your time is very limited we also offer a half-day tour.

We will collect you in the morning at your accommodation in Cape Town (half day tour can also start early afternoon) and return you after the tour. Alternatively we can drop you off at the V & A Waterfront.

Both tours take you up Signal Hill, offering a fantastic view over the city and Table Bay. Alternatively you can take the cableway up to Table Mountain, depending on weather conditions (not included in our price).

The routes now take us downtown, first we visit the Bo-Kaap quarter, home of Cape Malays. Afterwards we have a tour at the Castle of Good Hope, the oldest existing building in Cape Town and home of the Military Museum and the William Fehr Collection.

From the Castle we pass the City Hall of Cape Town on the way to the Company Gardens. We will take a walk in this beautiful garden in the centre of the city and view several historic buildings, including the Houses of Parliament, the South African Museum and the National Gallery.

After our walk we take you to Adderley Street, the main shopping area and to Greenmarket Square, well known for its African art and souvenir market.

We continue towards the harbour to have a walk through V&A Waterfront with its shops, restaurants and entertainment situated around a working harbour.

Guests of the full day tour can choose one of the following options:

  • You can take the ferry to Robben Island for a tour of the island and the jail where Nelson Mandela was imprisoned for 17 years (price not included).
  • Back in Cape Town we then travel to Sea Point, Clifton and Camps Bay to view several of the wonderful beaches of Cape Town. From Camps Bay we take you back to your accommodation.
  • Alternative to Robben Island we visit the world famous Kirstenbosch Botanical Gardens, with its collection of plants of indigenous Southern African plants, as well as unique plants from all over the world. One of the highlights is the protea, the national flower of South Africa.

From Kirstenbosch we drive through forest to Hout Bay, a beautiful town with lots of restaurants. Instead of Kirstenbosch Botanical Garden you can visit "World of Birds" in Hout Bay, the biggest bird park in Africa with more than hundred enclosures you can walk through.

Our route takes us now via the beaches of Camps Bay, Clifton and Sea Point back to your accommodation in Cape Town.
