Full Day Tour of the magnificent Cape Peninsula, Kirstenbosch and
Cape Point Nature Reserve.
Your private
driver/guide will collect you from your hotel at 09h30. The day
starts at Kirstenbosch Botanical Gardens, which boasts the greatest
collection of flora in Southern Africa - representing 12 000 species
of plants from the Cape Floral Kingdom. We then drive over Ou Kaapse
Weg mountain pass and along the scenic Atlantic seaboard, famous
for its white beaches, surfing and glorious sunsets, until we enter
the Cape Point Nature Reserve. This pristine national park lies
at the south-western most tip of Africa, and is one of the most
rugged and magnificent places on the continent, with secluded beaches
and mountain fynbos, including many of the Cape's famous Protea
flower species. This is the place where some people claim the Indian
and Atlantic oceans meet. Although there is a marked differnce between
the temperature of the ocean on either side of this narrow peninsula,
it is more accurate that this is the meeting point of the warm Mozambique
current and the cold Benguella current. You will then visit the
African penguin colony at Boulders beach, Simonstown, followed by
lunch at one of the fine restaurants overlooking the rocks and pounding
surf of False Bay. A visit to the traditional fishing harbour of
Kalk Bay is a colourful experience as fishermen land the daily catch.
