You got it absolutely right, everything was just perfect!

Jane

Our itinerary was perfectly planned. We stayed in some very classy places - always mysteriously in the best rooms - and at prices that we wouldn't have believed possible. [..] Great just to arrive and hand in our voucher. One guest house (such a name doesn't do it justice) owner greeted us with "oh you're with Mike - he's the only one of the agents who does it properly!"If we go again, and I hope we will, it will be with Cape Tours.

Swakopmund

 

swakopmund

The area of Namib Desert around Swakopmund is named the West Coast Recreational Area. For those interested in adventure activities Swakopmund offers sand-boarding, quad biking, dune carting, parachuting, hot air ballooning, shark fishing, deep sea fishing and beach angling to name but a few. For the more sedentary there are restaurants, cafes, art galleries, museums, historical buildings and monuments. If danger isn't your middle name, then the architecture and general feeling of Swakopmund might be more to your liking. This town has the ambiance associated with a small German village, and the town seems to be stuck in time. Although in recent times the new generation have woken up to the tourist potential of the area, Swakopmund still manages to create a feeling of timelessness.
A visit to the Cape Cross Seal Colony is worth a visit as it offers a taste of the Skeleton Coast and the seals are worth a visit. The Welwitschia drive is an interesting way to spend a few hours and introduces you to some of the fauna and flora of the Namib Desert. Bird lovers can pay a visit to the Swakopmund Salt Works or the Walvis Bay Lagoon, which in season is frequented by thousands of pink flamingos, and rare white pelicans here make for a very attractive picture. Dune 7, on the outskirts of town, is the highest dune in the area.

The Winelands offer breathtaking scenery, historic homesteads on wine estates, superb restaurants and of course, copious quantities of fabulous wines. Like the wine it’s a region best savoured rather than visited for a day from Cape Town (time permitting). Allow yourself time not only for the food and wine but also for the landscape itself. There are dramatic mountains such as Simonsberg and the Helderberg, which dominate the surrounding area. These mountain ranges make for great walking and birding and there are plenty of well-mapped footpaths available for exploring. Alternatively, make the most of the views by driving to the top of the Franschhoek, Helshoogte or Bainskloof passes

Historical glorious Stellenbosch; Sidewalk cafes, oak lined streets and elegant architecture are all perfectly blended in the old university town. With its Cape Dutch architecture, it is the warm and wonderful heart of the Cape Winelands, and is surrounded by stunning wine estates; and you’ll love exploring the fine art galleries, the architecture, the history, and the curious and quaint shops

Franschhoek was originally known as ‘Olifants Hoek’, after elephants took to calving in the sheltered valley. Between 1688 and 1690 land was apportioned to 200 Huguenots fleeing persecution in France. Finding the climate similar to that of France, the settlers planted vines. Today, 20 members of the Vignerons produce wines consumed throughout the world.

Nestled below the landmark Paarl (Dutch for Pearl) rock, this is the home to the world famous KWV and Nederburg wine labels. Paarl boasts the Afrikaans Language Monument, with its striking design and the stunning vistas, it is the only monument to a language in the world.
