Itinerary
Your adventure begins with a leisurely stroll through Bo-Kaap, immersing you in the culture and brightly colored houses of this historic neighborhood.
Take in the magnificent sights of Table Mountain, one of the 7 Wonders of the Natural World
We sweep along the stunning coastline, passing through the exclusive seaside suburbs of Clifton and Camps Bay before taking a scenic photo stop.
The journey continues onto one of the world's most spectacular coastal roads: Chapman's Peak Drive.
We visit the Cape of Good Hope Nature Reserve, where you'll hike for about 40 minutes from the legendary Cape of Good Hope (the southwestern-most tip of Africa!) up to the iconic Cape Point Lighthouse.
Next, we head north to the famous Boulders Beach Penguin Colony to watch the comical African Penguins waddle and roam from the viewing boardwalk. (An optional ticket allows for an even closer view!) After working up an appetite, we'll stop for lunch in one of the charming coastal towns (for your own account).
We have a quick stop off at the "Shark Spotters" view site above the beaches of Muizenberg as we make our way along the scenic Boyes Drive on the slopes of the Muizenberg and Kalk Bay mountains, and into the Constantia Valley.
We finish the day with a relaxing experience at Groot Constantia, South Africa's oldest wine estate outside of Europe. Enjoy a delightful wine tasting (optional extra) in beautiful surroundings as you learn about the Cape's rich agricultural history.

Fabulous way to spend the day! Our guide was a fantastic host who went out of his way to ensure our needs were met. He only mentioned his name once and I can’t remember it but I think it started with a T. It was so nice to not have to worry about waiting for a large group as our tour was just for our group. We highly recommend.
We had a wonderful experience riding around Cape Town with Taariq, despite having some pretty rough weather all day. It says a lot about the calibre of a tour guide when they're able to make something great out of a less than ideal situation. He went above and beyond to make our experience amazing. He is super knowledgeable and catered exactly to what we wanted out of our tour for the whole day. I would highly recommend booking a tour with CapeXtreme and Taariq!
We had an amazing time, and we are so glad we decided to take this trip. Our guide, Taariq, was very professional, extremely knowledgeable, always on time, and truly passionate about his job. Great Tour!
Thank you very much for your amazing review! We are so glad you had a great time on your trip with us. We will be sure to pass along your kind words to Taariq too. We hope to host you another adventure soon!

We are absolutely thrilled to hear you had such a fantastic time discovering the Cape Town with us! Taariq will be so pleased to hear your kind words. We truly appreciate your glowing review and hope to see you again for another adventure!
Very good experience with our guide Taariq. He was very knowledgeable and fun to interact with. He talked to everyone individually as well as with the group and was able to answer all of our questions. Gave lots of great recommendations for the area.
Amazing views, vibes and all. Highly recommended! Taariq is amazing and so knowledgeable. All 14 of us on the tour felt so comfortable and safe. Smooth driver and excellent educator. Great personality and sense of humor. He is great for families, friends, couples, business and solo trips. Super accommodating and very pleasant. I would work with Taariq in a heartbeat!
I had an amazing tour with Taariq! Between learning about the history, culture, and more of Cape Town, I had a tour of a lifetime. Also, Taariq made dinner reservations for a place called GOLD. it was one of the best meals and experiences I had on my South African trip. Thank you, Taariq!
Fantastic trip. The guide was great at sharing history along the way and we learned a lot! It also helped of course that we were the only two on the trip. Can definitely be recommended, such a beautiful route, especially chapman's peak drive!
Hello from the Cape Xtreme Team :) Thank you very much for your amazing review which we appreciate very much. We are very happy to hear that you had a great experience and hope to have you on tour with us again in the future. Warmest regards.
my friend at other tour company got better services and more exposure to small animals, the guide was average and not impressed at all. btw we travelled on Jun 2019, this is a long due review
Excellent full day tour and a great way to see around beautiful Cape Town. We were fortunate just to be the only two on the trip and had our guide Tariq’s full knowledge. He made our trip really fun and engaging, helping us to understand more about the culture and heritage, taking time to point out key things of interest. Tariq also made sure he helped us capture lots of photos of our experience and was always on hand to take the camera shots for us. Although the weather was rainy/cloudy/foggy and sunshine it didn’t detract from the experience. The penguins at Boulders Beach are worth a visit if the queue is short and the lunchtime stop off point was great with good food served.
