You meet our tour rep at Heathrow Airport and board onto your flight to Cape Town - Mother City of Africa, and the Western Cape, an area which is regarded as one of the most beautiful regions in the world. The City is a rare cultural gem, resulting from the amalgamation of Indonesian, French, Dutch, British and German settlers, the local Bushman and Hottentot tribes and the Bantu tribes from the north.

On arrival to Cape town you are transferred to your hotel and the day is to relax after your long flight. In the evening you will be transferred to a restaurant for Indian dinner.

Today you have a full day tour of the Cape Peninsula. You start with a drive to Hout Bay, a picturesque fishing village known for its arts, crafts and centre of the snoek (fish) industry. Later take a cruise to Seal Island (weather permitting) to see the several thousand Cape Fur Seals which inhabit the island along with the rare Black Cormorant. Not far along the False Bay coastal road is the entrance to the Cape Peninsula National Park at Cape Point with its rugged coastline, dotted with shipwrecks. The first stop is at the Cape of Good Hope, the most South-westerly point of Africa where two mighty Atlantic and Indian oceans currents meet - one warm and one icy-cold. A signpost identifies the Cape of Good Hope and also indicates its latitude and longitude - the ideal spot to have your photo taken. You continue to Simon?s Town where hundreds of penguins wait to greet you at Boulders Beach dressed in their "dinner suits". Finally, you visit Kirstenbosch National Botanical Gardens, a world famous garden of indigenous plants, regarded as one of the top 7 botanical gardens in the world.

In good weather you will enjoy perfect visibility over a radius of approximately 70km. Therafter you continue to V & A Waterfront for Indian Lunch. After lunch you proceed to visit the Robben Island. For nearly 400 years, Robben Island, was a place of banishment, exile, isolation and imprisonment. It was here that rulers sent those they regarded as political troublemakers, social outcasts and the unwanted of society. During the apartheid years Robben Island became internationally known for its institutional brutality. The duty of those who ran the Island and its prison was to isolate opponents of apartheid and to crush their morale. Some freedom fighters spent more than a quarter of a century in prison for their beliefs. In the evening return back to your hotel in Cape Town.

This morning you embark on a tour of Cape Town City as you descend from upper cableway station en route admiring beautiful Cape Town.  Continue to Signal Hill, winding uphill to Lion?s Head past the domed ?kramat? (tomb) of a revered Muslim holy man. Continue to the House of Parliament and the Tuinhuis- Company Gardens.
