About this activity

This excursion is the ideal approach to discover the local wildlife and the breathtaking Cape Peninsula. Take a small-group tour as a more personal option to crammed bus trips. See the vibrant structures of Bo-Kaap and take in the breathtaking scenery of the Cape of Good Hope as you go. The cruise includes stops at Boulders Beach, home to the African Penguin colony, and the charming communities of Hout Bay and Kalk Bay.

Observe a community of penguins on Boulders Beach, visit two oceans, and journey to the edge of the African continent at the Cape of Good Hope. A guide, some entrance fees, and round-trip hotel transport are also included.
