Once we have everyone on board, your guide will give you a short briefing of the day after the general introduction to knowing each other. Our first exciting stop will then be the famous colorful houses of Bo-Kap before we start exploring Table Mountain and the Atlantic seaboard. Here you will have ample time for the history of the area, your Instagram photos, and a guided walking tour.
Our next exciting attraction will be the new 7 Wonders of Nature namely Table Mountain. Table Mountain is a flat-topped mountain forming a prominent landmark overlooking the city of Cape Town in South Africa. It is a significant tourist attraction, weather permitting you will be guided and will use the Cableway for a return trip using the cableway.

Soon after the Table Mountain experience, We will drive down hills passing through the suburb of Clifton, Cape Town's version of the French Riviera en route to Maiden's Cove for photo opportunities.
Camps Bay is known to the locals as the Beverly hills or the French Riviera of South Africa with a blue flag beach once known as one the top 20 beautiful beaches in the World on Tripadvisor. We will stop at a popular Cove, named Maiden's Cove for photo opportunities. The area offers the most beautiful Instagram-able photos, with Camps Bay beach, Cliffton Suburb, Table Mountain, and the 12 apostles.
We will stop at this beautiful Cove for what we normally call the Kodak moment or the Instagram best photos. Here you will get 360-degree views of the twelve apostles, Camps Bay beach, and the Clifton area. It's a must-stop-on attraction on this tour.
Chapman's Peak drive is one of the most scenic tour routes in the world. We stop at the Chapman's Peak viewpoint where travelers will be "wowed" by the spectacular view of mountain ranges and endless stretches of the ocean as waves break against rocks and white sandy shorelines.
We stop at the monument of Just Nuisance in Simon's Town. Your tour guide will share the charming story of Just Nuisance who made a name for himself in the South African Navy. The South African Naval Base is situated in Simon's Town. We will have an optional lunch here in Simon's Town.
We stop at Penguin Town. Boulder's Beach is known as one of the best beaches in Cape Town. Warm waters from the False Bay Area creates make this ideal for swimming and sunbathing. The highlight of Boulder's Beach is of course the enchanting African penguin colony. Visit these cute penguins in their natural habitat and meet some of them along the boardwalk.
We enter the Cape of Good Hope Nature Reserve main gate to experience the highlight of the day. A visit to Cape Town is certainly not complete without a photo behind the Cape of Good Hope name board. Your tour guide will share interesting stories about the two Beacons known as the Bartolomeu Dias beacon and the Vasco Da Game beacon.
Most travellers take the option of a short hike from the Cape of Good Hope to the Cape Point lighthouse. However, should you not feel up to the short hike or medically unfit, your tour guide will guide you to the Flying Dutchman Funicular in which you will travel up to the Cape Point lighthouse. (Fee excluded from the tour price.) The Cape Point is the official meeting point of the Two Ocean currents: the Cold Benguela and the Warm Agulhas currents.
Our final stop for the day will be St James Beach where visitors can view the colorful beach huts and take a few photos. These huts are used for changing rooms by sunbathers and your tour guide will share the history of the beach huts with you.

Noma was our guide for the day. She was amazing. One of the best guides we have ever had. Great tour
A great way to efficiently visit and experience the Cape and mountain (weather permitting). We were lucky. Of our four days in Capetown, there were only three hours of relative clarity to view the city from Table Mountain. For those wanting to dwell a little at the top of the mountain, this tour offers quite limited time. There is a reasonable amount of walkway to cover at the summit and, on a good day, plenty of photography to be done! A separate visit might be a bit more relaxed. The tour is a good way to visit the Cape of Good Hope and Cape Point. The Boulders penguins are fun and worth a visit. I've dropped a few images to capture the tour.
Excellent Tour very well run. Sylvie was an excellent guide giving excellent invites to all our stops and als making a long day good fun. Very recommended.
I booked a tour to Table Mountain listed as the main attraction for the tour, and the one of two places we didn’t go was Table Mountain. We were picked up at 7:35 in the morning by our Driver Sedick, who was very informative, but immediately started making excuses about not being able to go to table mountain. He explained that there were long lines, at the time the lines were only 1 hour 30 minutes. So he decided to skip that part of the tour and continue on to the other excursions. All in all it was a beautiful day and we saw most of the other places on the tour, boulder beach, cape hope, the light house, and all were beautiful. He took us to a beach overlook called Long Beach which in my opinion was a waste of time it was a beautiful beach but not something I needed to stop at and take pictures, but he completely skipped St. James Beach which was the beach with the colorful huts. I would have preferred that beach over Long Beach. He consistently talked about the long lines at Table Mountain and how long the wait was and how he basically could drop us off there but wouldn’t wait for us, as the tour ended at 6. We as a collective decided not to go to table mountain, but that was the main reason we signed up for the tour. We were dropped off at our hotel at 5:27pm , but I felt a little cheated out of the chance to experience the things we had thought we were going to be able to see. I understand that traffic and long lines could affect a tour but there should be a disclaimer as “time permitting” or table mountain “optional”. While Cape Town was beautiful and I enjoyed the rest of the tour I’m not sure I would take this particular tour again.
This tour was well-organized and included a lot of the "must sees" of Cape Town - Bo-Kaap, Table Mountain, Camps Bay Beach, Boulders Beach Penguin Colony, and the Cape of Good Hope along with a few other stops in between. Gordon, our guide, provided background history for each stop. Highly recommend this tour!
The tour was amazing, the group was small and manageable, it started bright and early so we didn’t suffer in any queues. The guide (Seifu) was incredibly nice, funny and understanding; he also was very knowledgeable and patient. The driver (uncle Israel) was very professional and friendly. Would definitely recommend if you want to see most of what Cape Town has to offer!

I did not, and had to meet my tour at Table Mountain. After the confusion and meeting my guide, Jean-Marie, I had a Great time. He went above and beyond for us all. All passengers were from other countries, so it was a great group. Well worth the effort to join them, even delayed.
