Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product

Stop At: Cape of Good Hope, Cape Point Rd, Table Mountain National Park 8001 South Africa

Chapman’s Peak is named after John Chapman, the Captain’s mate of an English ship, the Consent. The peak which looms overhead was not named after a governor or brave mountaineer, but a lowly ship’s pilot. This world famous scenic route was constructed in the 1920’s and you will enjoy the most breath-taking views of the Atlantic Ocean and the Hout Bay Harbour.

The Cape of Good Hope National Park forms part of the rich “Cape Floral Kingdom”, the biome of which is considered to be the richest and most bio diverse in the world. It is commonly known as “Fynbos”, (or “Fine bush) covering an area of approx. 500,000 hectares (1,25 million acres) The area is rich in natural heritage and is one of the most popular tourist destinations in South Africa. Due to the variety of wildlife that occurs here it is the only section of the Table Mountain National Park that is fenced and visitors should look out for Eland, Red Hartebeest, Bontebok and Zebra. At the point, visitors are treated to excellent viewing opportunities from the “old” lighthouse, which was built in 1859. The lighthouse is accessible by foot or one can catch the Flying Dutchman funicular to the top.

Simon’s Town (sometimes spelled Simonstown) is a town which is home to the South African Navy. It is located on the shores of False Bay, on the eastern side of the Cape Peninsula. For more than two centuries it has been a naval base and harbour (first for the Royal Navy and now the South African Navy). The town is named after Simon van der Stel, an early governor of the Cape Colony.
