- Table Mountain - Start your private tour with a pickup from your Cape Town hotel, and then travel into the center of town by air-conditioned minivan. As you travel, chat with your guide about the city and the attractions that you want to see; the itinerary is flexible and can be tailored to the sights you want to see.
Perhaps start with a cable car ride up Table Mountain, the city’s famous UNESCO World Heritage site. The ride is at your own expense and subject to good weather conditions, but once at the top, the views are magnificent. During July/August the cable car is closed for about two weeks for annual maintenance, but the hiking trails remain open.
- Signal Hill - Alternatively, skip the ride and travel up Signal Hill by minivan. The hill is a classic Cape Town vantage point and a picturesque spot for ogling the city and beach vistas.
Return to town for a walking tour around Cape Town itself.
- Company’s Gardens - Wander past Company’s Gardens, a colonial-era park boasting a pretty Rose Garden and large fish pond. Walk past several sites linked to the city’s tenuous history with slavery such as Slave Lodge and the Old Slave Tree, and gaze at top Cape Town attractions including the Houses of Parliament.
- Greenmarket Square - Greenmarket Square and St George’s Mall are also worked in to your route.
- Noon Day Gun - Return to your minivan for a visit to Noon Gun
- Bo-kaap - Stop for photos by the candy-coloured houses, and hear how the district has changed from a shanty town to a vibrant city neighbourhood with a melting pot of cultures.
- Victoria & Alfred Waterfront - Enjoy a break at the V&A Waterfront for lunch and perhaps a boat ride around the harbour (both at your own expense). After enjoying some free time, meet back up with your guide, and then relax on a scenic drive alongside the Atlantic coastline.
Watch the waves crashing against the jagged shores, and pass through swanky neighbourhoods such as Clifton or Camps Bay. Your tour then finishes with a drop-off at your Cape Town hotel.
- Africa Select Journeys - This is a private tour running exclusively for you and/or your group. You can request changes to the itinerary after your booking, to ensure you only travel to the highlights you prefer to see.
