What to Expect
Legendary Cape of Good Hope
Main goal of our journey - the Cape of Good Hope, surrounded by stories and legends, with breathtaking views that will leave you speechless! You will find yourself in the "Cape of Good Hope" reserve, where you can encounter baboons, antelopes, and ostriches, and there are several thousand species of plants here, many of which are unique to this area. Then, either by funicular or on foot, we will ascend to the top of the cape to the operating lighthouse, from the observation deck of which you can see the mesmerizing view of the turbulent waters of two oceans, which have claimed many ships.
Seals and Penguins
During our journey, you will get acquainted with the nature and animals of South Africa. From the beach of Hout Bay, framed by the rocks of Chapman's Peak and a harbor, we will sail by boat to the seal island, where you will see hundreds of these cumbersome on land but graceful in water animals basking in the sun. And after lunch at the "Two Oceans" restaurant near the Cape of Good Hope, we will head to Boulders Beach, where you can get up close to African penguins and take excellent photos.
A Journey along the Southern Africa coastline
You will drive along the ocean coast through beautiful beaches and coastal towns. You will visit Hout Bay, where the locals come for the freshest seafood.
