Cape Town and Surrounding Pickup

9:00
Pick up will be communicated to you the day before your tour. This will be between 7:30 and 9:00 am. After pick up at accommodation in Cape Town we will travel through the city and see historical monuments and buildings.
From there we will stop in the Bo-Kaap (Cape Malay Quarter) for a photo opportunity with the colorful houses, which carries great historical significance. You may even have a chance to greet some of the locals if they are in sight. Situated at the foot of Signal Hill, on the fringe of the city center, the Bo-Kaap’s origins date back to the 1760s when numerous rental houses were built and leased to slaves. These people were known as Cape Malays and were brought from Malaysia, Indonesia and the rest of Africa to work in the Cape. The choice of color is said to be attributed to the fact that while on the lease, all the houses had to be white. When this rule was eventually lifted, and the slaves were allowed to buy the properties, all the houses were painted bright colors by their owners as an expression of their freedom.
We stop at Maiden’s Cove for a photo opportunity with magnificent views of the Twelve Apostles as a backdrop. This cove is one of the best places in Cape Town to take panoramic photos of the Ocean, Camps Bay Beach combined with the views of Table Mountain, Lion’s Head and the beautiful suburbs of Clifton, Camps Bay etc… We call this the Kodak moment.
Our journey continues along the picturesque coastline and stopping in Hout Bay Harbour. Here, guests have the option to either take a boat to Seal Island to view the Seals or visit the market for some shopping. The best fish & chips in Cape Town can be purchased as a takeaway or sit down at Mariner’s Wharf Restaurant at your own account. Kindly ask your tour guide for more details.
Board an optional ferry to Duiker Island to view the seals colony. The entire boat trip duration lasts for 45-minutes and the skipper will circle around the Island where the Seals are parading and swimming. We do not recommend this activity when it is windy or raining because the oceans tend to be rough, making it an unpleasant experience.
We continue our coastal journey and stop in Noordhoek, with the breathtaking views of Noordhoek and Long Beach beneath us. Travellers will have the option to enjoy some of the best coffee brewed in Cape Town at the Village Roast for their own account.
Departing from Hout Bay, we drive along Chapman’s Peak and stop at the viewpoint for spectacular photos. It is little wonder that Chapman’s Peak is one of the most scenic routes in the world.
A quick stop at the Ostrich Farm that is run by a family from 1996. This is a breeding farm that accommodates 40 breeding birds.
Our tour culminates with the Cape of Good Hope and Cape Point Lighthouse. Here we will explore the Dias & Vasco Da Gama, Crosses. These two gentlemen were the first early Europeans who arrived in Cape Town around 1487 & 1495. Should you wish to hike, please speak to your guide. Kindly put on comfortable walking shoes, bring sun block and a jersey or jacket, hat. The entire tour will be alongside your personal private tour guide in a small group tour.
From the Cape of Good Hope we will have the option to either take a short hike to Cape Point or take the Funicular. Lunch is recommended at either Two Oceans restaurant for a sit down meal or at the informal eatery for a take out. Here we will also explore the most south western point of Africa, known as the Cape Point, where the cold Benguela from Atlantic Ocean, meets the warm Agulhas current of the Indian Ocean. We will explore the lighthouse, etc.
Our next stop will be the Penguins colony in Boulders beach, where your guide will escort you to the viewing point to see some of the 2500 breeding pairs of African Penguins at close range. You may even find one or two of these enchanting creatures walking alongside you on the boardwalk.
Kalk Bay is known for its raw beauty, interesting shops, vast selection of restaurants and stunning views. Kalk Bay is a gem on the False Bay coastline. You could easily spend a full day in this little neighbourhood and still not be able to experience it all!
As we drive past Muizenberg Beach, you will have a photo stop opportunity at the St James Beach well-known for the colourful beach huts. These huts were previously used for changing rooms by sunbathers and is still used for the same reason up until today.
Muizenberg Beach Our return route is past Muizenberg where you will see the coloured beach huts. The beach huts are used as changing rooms. These are reminiscent to the “bathing machine” of the 1800s, which was a cart-like structure that was wheeled down to the water’s edge, allowing the ladies to change into their bathing costumes.
talking with the driver who was so knowledgeable and a lovely guide!! would always recommend KULE TOURS & TRAVEL to everyone.
