Trip Summary

This tour is perfect to enjoy some of our beautiful locations at close distances to The Mother City. With a new Natural Seven Wonder of the World in Table Mountain, award-winning Kirstenbosch Botanical Gardens and a visit to our oldest vineyards, you are in for quiet a treat. Let our itinerary be a guideline but remember the day is yours so it's up to you how you wanna start or play out the day.

 

We start our day departing from your hotel and heading for Table Mountain or Signal Hill (if the Cape Town weather decides to act out of our favour). From the top enjoy the endless views over our Mother City and cape Peninsula, with your guide pointing out some of the highlights.

Back at the bottom, we make our way through the city, as you are taken back to the bygone colonial era, as your guide reveals the history that began South Africa`s most beautiful city. A trip to a museum is next with the option of visiting one of the many that offer a depth of insight into our diverse and fascinating history.

Ease your way through the company gardens, the nucleus of our city, with pigeons, geese and squirrels crisscrossing your path. Experience twelve o`clock with a bit of a bang by heading up to the firing of the noon gun cannon (except for Sunday and Public Holidays) We then drive out through cobbled and colourful streets of the iconic Bo-Kaap before heading on route to our famed Kirstenbosch Botanical Gardens.

Take a stroll through our magnificent gardens, soaking in such highlights as the Boomslang Tree Canopy Walk, the Conservancy and everything in between. In the mood for some traditional African cuisine? Enjoy a light lunch in the popular tea room or hold out a few minutes longer to enjoy your lunch in view of the tranquil Constantia Vineyards.

We make our way into the heart of our Constantia Winelands with opportunity of visiting one of the many incredible estates that the valley has on offer. Take a cellar tour at the historical Groot Constantia estate our oldest in the country, enjoy the sweet wine that put the Cape in the heart of Napoleon or take on something more contemporary with the modern and glamorous estates of Steenberg or Constantia glen.

As our day draws to a close we can take advantage of the opportunity to take the scenic coastal route along Victoria road through Camps Bay, this is a must do especially if its in time for our luring Cape Town sunsets that will surely put a cherry on top to an much enjoyed and splendid day.
