   1 h

4. Upon your return from Table Mountain, we proceed along the Atlantic Seaboard and pass through the beautiful coastline of Bantry Bay, Clifton and Camps Bay. We stop at Maiden's Cove where will will have the opportunity to take some of the most spectacular photos, with the Twelve Apostles and Camps Bay beach as a backdrop.

   15 min

5. Chapman's Peak Drive is one of the most scenic drives in the world. Take the opportunity of some magical photos when we stop at the Chapman's Peak viewpoint, overlooking endless stretches of the Atlantic Ocean. (We will take this drive if it is operational. Should it not be operational due to rock-falls, etc. we will use an alternate route.)

   20 min

6. Proceeding along the coastline, we will be greeted by views of pristine beaches of white sand and blue oceans in Noordhoek. Should you be a keen horse rider, we can arrange for a 1-hour horse ride on Noordhoek Beach. (Should you wish to take up this offer, please advise at time of booking your tour.) An optional stop at the Noordhoek Farm Village is on offer for some of the best coffee roasted on this side of Cape Town.

   15 min

7. As we enter into the Cape of Good Hope's main gate we will drive for a short distance before we see the two navigational beacons with crosses on top of each one: The Dias Cross and da Gama Cross. These monuments were reconstructed to commemorate Vasco da Gama and Bartolomeu Dias as explorers who were the first to reach the Cape. A visit to the Cape of Good Hope is not complete without a photo behind the Cape of Good Hope name board.

   1 h

8. Most visitors to the Cape of Good Hope take the option of a short hike to the Cape Point Lighthouse. However, should you prefer, you are welcome to take the Flying Dutchman Funicular to the lighthouse. Cape Point is the official meeting point of the two ocean currents: The Cold Benguela Current and the Warm Agulhas Current. The Cape Point and Cape of Good Hope have various species of fauna and flora. Baboons may seem cute, but we advise not to get too close to them as these are wild animals and can become dangerous. An optional lunch stop can be enjoyed either at the sit-down restaurant called the Two Oceans at Cape Point or a takeaway from the informal eatery. (Please advise at time of booking whether we can assist with a lunch reservation.)

   1 h

9. We travel along the M6 main road towards Fish Hoek on route to Simon's Town to meet the monument of Just Nuisance and Boulder's Beach to visit the African Penguins Colony. Just Nuisance was a Great Dane Dog who made a name for himself in the South African Navy. Listen to some interesting stories about Just Nuisance from your tour guide. Then we visit the Penguins colony at Boulder's Beach. The African Penguins can be viewed from the boardwalks that make their way through the dunes and dense vegetation. You may even be fortunate enough to be greeted by one of these enchanting sea creatures along the boardwalk. Simon's Town and Boulder's Beach also presents lunch options at one of the sit-down restaurants or informal eateries. (Please advise at time of booking whether we can assist with a reservation.)

About Le Cap

Le Cap s'étire entre la montagne de la Table et la mer : plages, vignobles, manchots et histoire, près de la pointe sud-ouest de l'Afrique.

Le sommet plat de la montagne de la Table domine tout, accessible par téléphérique ou par des sentiers de randonnée, flanqué de Lion's Head et de Signal Hill. En contrebas, le V&A Waterfront s'agite autour du port en activité, et des bateaux en partent pour Robben Island, où Nelson Mandela fut détenu pendant dix-huit ans. Les maisons colorées de Bo-Kaap grimpent sur les pentes au-dessus du centre-ville et du Company's Garden.
