Today's full-day tour of the Cape Peninsula begins with a drive of never-ending breath-taking scenery along part of the Atlantic Seaboard which stretches from the V&A Waterfront to Hout Bay, your first stop today. Here, you can explore the largest bird park in Africa - World of Birds Wildlife Sanctuary and Monkey Park. From Hout Bay, a quaint village with a fishing harbour, a 40-minute cruise charter takes you past the famous Maori Bay Wreck, to the protected home of thousands of wild Cape Fur Seals - Duiker Island Seal Colony. After lunch in Hout Bay Harbour, you journey beyond Simon's Town to Boulders Beach, including a photo-stop at Chapman's Peak.
