Highlights
- Victoria & Alfred Waterfront - The V&A Waterfront is one of Cape Town’s most popular spots. This area offers breathtaking ocean views and easy access to some of the city’s finest beaches. Here, you can catch the ferry to Robben Island, which is 11 km from the mainland and takes about 40-45 minutes by ferry. This is also where you’ll pay for your ferry fare and Robben Island ticket.
- Robben Island Museum - Robben Island is located in Table Bay and is best known for its maximum-security prison, where Nelson Mandela and other political prisoners were held during apartheid. Mandela spent 18 of his 27 years in prison on the island, making it a symbol of the struggle. Now a World Heritage site and museum, it offers daily tours. You’ll disembark at Murray’s Bay Harbour on the island’s east coast and take a short walk to buses that will take you to various historical sites. Please NOTE that this tour is EXCLUSIVE, and you will need to pay an entry fee of R 550 per person.
- Victoria & Alfred Waterfront - After visiting Robben Island, you’ll return to the V&A Waterfront, located on the edge of the city’s bustling harbor. Here, you can have lunch and explore the mall, which offers a unique variety of dining, shopping, and entertainment options. Please NOTE that lunch is EXCLUSIVE.
- Bo-Kaap - Bo-Kaap is a historic neighborhood in Cape Town, known for its colorful houses and narrow, cobbled streets. It has been a vibrant community since 1834, marking the end of slavery in the Cape Colony.
- Company’s Gardens - The Company’s Garden is the oldest garden in South Africa, located in central Cape Town. Originally created in 1650 by the region’s first European settlers, it provided fresh produce to replenish ships rounding the Cape. Today, it is a park and heritage site.
- Table Mountain Aerial Cableway - Travel to Table Mountain via the Atlantic Coastal Drive towards Llandudno Beach, a residential area mostly occupied by British nationals and featuring a nude beach. Table Mountain, with an altitude of 1,067 meters above sea level, is a unique symbol of the peninsula. The cable car ride, which completes a 360-degree rotation, offers a spectacular way to ascend Cape Town’s famous flat-topped peak. At the top, you’ll find a self-service restaurant, Table Mountain Café, offering a range of food, drinks, snacks, desserts, and wines. Table Mountain is an excellent spot to soak up the commanding 360-degree views of Cape Town, Table Bay, the surrounding mountains, and the rest of Table Mountain National Park.

- Constantia Glen Winery - Constantia Winery, where the first wine was tasted on February 2, 1659, is one of Cape Town’s oldest townships and is renowned for its wine. Located about 15 kilometers south of Cape Town’s center, it is considered one of South Africa’s most prestigious suburbs. The Constantia Valley lies to the east and at the foot of the Constantiaberg Mountain, with Constantia Nek being a low pass linking to Hout Bay in the west.

Kirstenbosch National Botanical Garden - A place to breathe and explore the Cape Floral Kingdom, the smallest but richest of the world’s six floral kingdoms.

Robben Island,Table Mountain and Kirstenbosch Day Tour - What an amazing and busy day. From the Boat to Robben Island and all the history that it holds. To the amazing wonder of Table Mountain. The spectacular views and the sheer vastness of the Park it surrounds!
Then to top it off to the Kirstenbosch National Botanical Garden for a final stop. What a spectacular garden set in the Table Mountain National Park. Beautiful setting......
In between a superb meal on Kloof Street at Kloof Street House. And all hosted by the knowledgeable and delightful Roland.
What a day and what an experience.
Would have shot a 5 every time, but the time keeping was slightly out and it was a struggle to get it all in....But well worth the money.
