For those who wish to do the Cape Peninsula tour but do not have the time for a full day tour, this 5 hour Cape Peninsula Half Day Tour is the option for you. The tour still includes everything that is included in the full day tour (excluding Kirstenbosch Gardens), but with less time available.
We leave Cape Town passing through the upmarket suburbs of Bantry Bay, Clifton, Camps Bay and Bakoven viewing the beaches where the beautiful bodies and the who’s who of Cape Town hang out. Once past the last house of Bantry Bay we take to the twisty Victoria Road heading to Hout Bay. Depending on conditions we either go over Chapman’s Peak or Constantia Nek. Should we do the latter, we head for the False Bay coastline instead and take Boyes Drive for an elevated view over the bay and surrounding suburbs.
This takes us to the fishing village of Kalk Bay where you get the chance to catch a glimpse (of where the locals love to go over the weekend) of the shops along main road before ending at the Olympia Café (a local landmark known for good pastries and eats) for a coffee and croissant. Now we follow the coast all the way to Cape Point, stopping at Boulders Penguin Colony first. Once we get to Cape Point, we follow the road to the lighthouse. Here you can walk up to the old lighthouse. On returning to the vehicle we zip down to the Cape of Good Hope for a brief photo and walk about before leaving the reserve.
We then make our way out of the reserve and follow the road along the Atlantic Ocean, passing through the villages of Scarborough, Misty Cliffs and Kommetjie before traveling over Ou Kaapse Weg and through the leafy up market suburbs south of Cape Town passing the University of Cape Town and Groote Schuur Hospital before arriving back in the city.
This tour, although being a half day tour, can start at 10H00 and end at 15H00 to include a lunch en route.
