Itinerary
At the lower cable station, we will join a queue of tourists to go on the five-minute cable car trip to the top of Table Mountain, 1 067 meters above sea level, and explore the summit. You’ll find a self-service restaurant, Table Mountain Café, offering a range of food and drinks, snacks, desserts and wines. Table Mountain is a great spot to sit and soak up the commanding 360-degree views of Cape Town, Table Bay, the nearby peaks of the surrounding mountains and the rest of the Table Mountain National Park, in which the Cableway is situated. There are 3 trails you can choose to do with the guide: DASSIE WALK (15 min) AGAMA WALK (30 min) KLIPSPRINGER WALK (45 min).
Enjoy the dramatic coastal drive as you pass Camps Bay and Hout Bay, with the mountains and ocean stretching beside you.
Our next stop will be Chapman's peak where we will stop at the viewpoint for spectacular photos. Then drive down a spectacular road with a spectacular view.
Boulders Beach is a sheltered beach made up of inlets between granite boulders, from which the name originated. It is located in the Cape Peninsula, near Simon's Town towards Cape Point. It is a popular place due to the colony of African penguins which settled there in 1982. These African penguins are only found on the coastlines of Southern Africa - (South Africa & Namibia). One of the only places in the world that you can swim alongside penguins.
Optional Lunch stop in Simon's Town. before we make our way to Muizenberg, you’ll encounter a blend of maritime history, charming coastal villages, and breathtaking views of False Bay.
The Cape of Good Hope is at the southern tip of the Cape Peninsula, about 2.3 kilometres (1.4 mi) west and a little south of Cape Point on the south-east corner. With its diverse habitat, ranging from rocky mountain tops to beaches and open sea, the Cape of Good Hope is home to at least 250 species of birds including one of the two mainland colonies of African penguins, baboon and rare antelope called Bontebok.
Take in views of the False Bay coastline and the colorful beach huts of Muizenberg on your return journey.

An excellent day exploring Table Mountain, Chapmans Peake Drive, the penguins at Boulder Beach and the Cape of Good Hope. It was made all the better and enjoyable by our excellent guide Fayical. We thought the private tour was good value for money and particularly liked the fact that all admission prices were included.

This was by far one of the BEST tours I have been on. I’ve traveled the world, Korea, Japan, Singapore, Thailand, Bali, and more. Please request FAYICAL (fi-zel) he was THE BEST tour guide. Very informative and knowledgeable BUT he was so kind. It only to us but everyone around he helped out an elderly lady, he assisted someone trying to park that was having trouble and so friend to everyone. He was hands down amazing and made this tour that much better. It was a pleasure spending the day with you.
We truly appreciate you taking the time to share your experience, especially given how widely you’ve traveled, that means a great deal to us. Fayical will be absolutely delighted to read your kind words. He genuinely embodies what we aim to offer on every tour, knowledgeable guiding, kindness, patience, and genuine care for people, not only our guests but everyone we encounter along the way. We’re so pleased that the tour left such a positive impression and that it was a pleasure spending the day together. Thank you for choosing us, and we hope to welcome you back to Cape Town again in the future.
The vehicle we traveled in was clean and comfortable. Our driver Fayical is a good driver and fun to talk to. He gave us a lot of information about all the different places we went. My favorite place was Boulders to see the South African Penguins. Thank you Fayical for fun family day.
Thank you so much for sharing this wonderful feedback! We’re delighted to hear that you and your family enjoyed a clean, comfortable ride and lively conversation with Fayical. He takes great pride in making every stop memorable, and we’ll be sure to pass on your kind words to him. Boulders Beach and its charismatic penguins are a favourite of ours, too—nothing beats watching them waddle right past! We’re thrilled that highlight stood out for you. If you ever return to Cape Town, we’d love to welcome you back for more hidden-gem experiences—perhaps a sunset on Signal Hill or a walk through the Cape Point fynbos next time.
We had a great time on this Peninsula Tour! Table Mountain is stunning, and the views along Chapman’s Peak were great. Cape Point was wild and beautiful. The penguins at Boulders Beach were so cute and fun to watch. Everything was well-organized, and our guide made the day even better. Definitely a must-do while in Cape Town!

Fayical has been an excellent host, he shared the draft program a night before, helped with revision, picked up from the hotel right on time.. we could not go up to Table Mountain due to strong winds, but all the rest of the program went smooth in excellent car. He was kind to stop at all locations allowing me to take few more shots.. we had excellent fish lunch. The tour took longer than planned and he was kind not to complaint about it. Strongly recommend him for a day tour in Cape
