Depart from the pier and follow one of South Africa's most scenic routes to Cape Point, traveling through the seaside suburbs of Sea Point, Bantry Bay and Clifton, via the lovely Chapmans Peak Drive.
Enjoy some of the Cape's most magnificent views and continue through the quaint seaside residential suburb of Scarborough en route to the Cape of Good Hope Nature Reserve. The nature reserve is comprised of 19,000 acres of indigenous flora and fauna. This is where two oceans and two marine ecosystems meet. With its dramatic sea cliffs -- among the tallest in South Africa -- Cape Point is the main attraction in the reserve. A funicular takes you to the top of the point, from where you can enjoy the breathtaking views (funicular operates wind and weather conditions permitting).
Lunch will be served at a restaurant with a scenic outlook.Visit the penguin colony on Boulders Beach before you leave the area.
After your visit with the Penguins you will take a short drive to Kalk Bay, a picturesque harbour town. Similar to Simons Town it has gorgeous historical buildings some dating back to 1870s. Fishing was the mainstay of Kalk Bay and is still a favourite amongst locals to buy your fresh fish when the boats come in. Kalk Bay has an array of boutique shops selling local arts and crafts, situated along the coast it is a must see for any visitor.
Returning to the harbor, you'll pass the University of Cape Town, and Groote Schuur Hospital, where the first human heart transplant took place more than 30 years ago.

Special Notes
The tour involves a fair amount of walking and is therefore not suitable for guests with walking difficulties or those in wheelchairs.
The road along Chapman's Peak Drive is extremely steep, narrow & winding. The tour is therefore not recommended for guests with a fear of heights. Chapman's Peak is only accessible if the road is open. The tour order may vary. Wildlife sightings are likely but are not guaranteed. If Chapman's Peak Drive is closed, a drive along Constantia Nek and Ou Kaapse Weg will be substituted. Wear comfortable walking shoes. Shade is limited; please dress accordingly.
