Full Day Cape Peninsula Tour

5.0(1 review)

Bring your camera; we're headed for Cape Point at the southwestern tip of the Cape Peninsula, and the most spectacular views in the world. The drive there is just as inspiring, passing steep mountains', secluded coves and sweeping beaches, as well as villages and fishing communities. Our tour begins with a scenic drive along the Atlantic coast, passing through the cosmopolitan suburbs of Sea Point and Camps Bay with its glorious views of the Twelve Apostles, part of the Table Mountain range. We'll continue to the fishing village of Hout Bay, one of Cape Town's best-kept secrets. Here there is an option to take a short boat trip to Seal Island (for own account & time permitting) to view the Cape Fur Seals, which inhabit the island. From here we travel to the Cape Point Nature Reserve, comprising over 17,300 acres of indigenous fauna and flora. Here we can see a variety of wildlife that includes baboons, Reebok, Cape Mountain zebra, bontebok and the elusive eland. The reserve is also one of the world's largest breeding grounds for tortoises. Birdwatchers, too, will find many fine species to observe. The majestic coastline offers drama worthy of being called "Nature's Greatest Show." We'll be able to see the union of the Atlantic and Indian Oceans (as per legend) and may even feel the brisk wind that is dubbed the "Cape Doctor" for its presumed curative powers. Following the coastline along False Bay, we'll return to Cape Town by way of Simon's Town, where we visit the Penguin colony at Boulders Beach (for own account) and Fish Hoek fishing village. Before our return, we'll stop for afternoon tea & cake. We return to Cape Town, passing the University of Cape Town and the Groote Schuur Hospital.

Join us for a once-in-a-lifetime experience on this boat trip looking for Southern right whales off the South African coast! We'll pick you up from your hotel and head out for a beautiful two-hour drive to Gansbaai, the world-renowned whale watching site. Enjoy the stunning scenery. Your guide will provide commentary about the areas en route. Once we reach Gansbaai, we will head out for a magnificent two-hour boat trip in search of Southern right whales. As a bonus, we'll also get to see the penguin colony at Stony Point. Viewing the whales by boat is the best way to meet these majestic animals. We make sure that we use the most eco-friendly and ethical operator in the area that allows the whales to decide if they want to give close up encounters. We also visit the best area of Gansbaai, by the Cliffs of De Kelders, a spot proven to carry the most whales through the season. The tour itinerary is reliant on the launch times available from Ivanhoe Sea Safaris. The number of guests is restricted to 25 passengers to ensure there is no overcrowding and you get to see the whales from all parts of the boat.
