You may even get a chance to spot the Chacma Baboon, various antelope and ostriches in the reserve.

Lunch is for your own account and there are two options available at Cape Point, either a sit down or take away.

Your guide will then drive the group to Boulders Beach in Simons Town to visit the colony of thousands of African Penguins. The Boulders Beach penguins are about as famous as birds can be. They're also ever-more endangered. The birds, who draw crowds of visitors who can't resist their waddling ways, are under threat from loss of habitat, dwindling fish resources, and their human neighbours. After a full day of activities you will then be taken back to your accommodation at around 5.00pm

The tour of Cape Town was fine. Our guide kept asking me if I wanted to take a picture of something - no! Had already seen most of it. Our guide was impersonal.

Each of the attractions were beyond our expectations. Charmaine also demonstrated extensive knowledge and warmth; she was flexible and made us feel very comfortable - by the end of the day, she felt like part of the gang!

Our guide picked us up right on time. She took us through the beautiful countryside south to Cape Point. We stopped to admire the beautiful countryside. When she became concerned about labor unrest in the town where we would get the boat to Seal Island, she altered the itinerary to first visit the beautiful Cape of Good Hope and then the penguins. Then we returned to the boat for the seals, but first she bought us a fantastic fish and chips lunch, locally caught fish. Delicious. Our guide was knowledgeable and led us through this fantastic tour. Highly recommended.

This was a great small group experience that included a boat ride to Seal Island, a beach visit to see penguins, biking in Cape of Good Hope National Park, and hiking! Lots of fun and options if you chose not to do the more strenuous activities. Nice picnic lunch and hotel pickup included. I would suggest not hiking the trail to Cape of Good Hope if you are not in pretty good physical condition; however, the biking was not difficult. All in all it was a fast paced enjoyable day and excellent value for the price! Would definitely recommend!

To get the most of this tour you have to have the right guide who knows what they are doing - ours was booked through Touring South Africa. We left Cape Town at 8.00 am which got us to the attractions Penguins, and Cape Point before the crowds are unbearable and really prevent any enjoyment. He also took us the rightway round so that we got the maximum views of the ocean scenery. Add to that an absolutely outstanding lunch recommendation The Food Barn and we had a wonderful day.
