Alongside Table Mountain, the Cape Peninsula is the place to explore as a family whilst in Cape Town. Rather than just zip past the Peninsula we are going to explore the ins and outs of the Peninsula itself through a series of short hikes.
At Kirstenbosch, we will explore the gardens and walk above the treetops on the Boomslang. At Kalk Bay, we explore the working fishing harbour, meet the seals, have a go at throwing a fishing line over the harbour wall while you banter and get to know the lively locals at the harbour.
Heading to Simon’s Town, we will find our own rogue Penguins on lesser-known beaches only accessible to the locals. Lunch will be close to Penguin Beach, where you will be able to indulge in a delicious picnic packed for you.
After your leisurely picnic, we will head to the Peninsula reserve where we’ll be on the hunt for the Cape 5 (Ostrich, Baboons, Mountain Zebra, Bontebok and Tortoise) and at Cape Point, we will also spend our time exploring the beaches and shipwrecks for lost treasure.
We will visit the charismatic Noordhoek Farm village for delicious artisanal ice cream, before returning to the base along a scenic coastal route.
