Overview of your Cape town tour:

From June, but peaking around August to November, southern right whales migrate to Walker Bay, making Hermanus one of the best places in the world for land-based whale watching. From June to November, optional whale watching boat trips can maximize your chances of seeing them. But there is plenty more to see and do, whether the whales are there or not: The attractive town centre has quality shops and galleries, restaurants, a market square, and a clifftop path you can stroll along to see the whales if you're lucky! Tastings of world class wines can be enjoyed at some of South Africa's top boutique wineries in the Hemel en Aarde (Heaven & Earth) Valley within the cool climate Walker Bay wine region. The drive there and back is spectacular, whether by the mountain or coastal route. Along the coastal route, a botanical garden and / or colony of African penguins can be visited. A cheetah conservation project offers interactions with cheetahs to raise funds for projects supporting cheetahs in the wild.

Your Cape town tour itinerary

If time permits, follow a loop taking in both the inland mountain route (1¾ hours) and the spectacular coastal route (2½ hours). Choose one or two priorities from these options and we'll work out a plan: ● 2 hour whale watching boat trip departing at 12:00 (June to November). ● Walk along the coastal cliff top path to try and see whales from land, starting from the centre of Hermanus with its attractive shops, galleries and restaurants. ● Explore the Walker Bay wine valley with its cool climate vineyards and world class wines. ● Stop along the coastal route to visit the Harold Porter Botanical garden and / or the African penguin colony at Stony Point. ● Visit Cheetah Outreach near the Strand where you can have an interaction with a cheetah to raise funds for supporting the conservation of cheetahs in the wild. Lunch can be enjoyed in the centre of Hermanus with views of the bay (and perhaps the whales if you're lucky!) or at one of the wineries in the beautiful Hemel en Aarde (Heaven & Earth) Valley.
