3 nights in Cape Town

Cape Town Table Mountain

The beautiful mother city of Cape Town has much to offer its visitors. From Table Mountain to Robben Island, its sights and sounds ensure a memorable holiday. However, no visit would be complete without exploring the Cape Peninsula.

The slender finger of land that comprises the Cape Peninsula holds a host of delights to discover and enjoy. Whether you are looking for spectacular scenic vistas, historic sites, the oldest wine estates in the country or the serenity of a visit to Kirstenbosch Botanical Gardens, the peninsula has it all and much, much more.

2 nights on the Whale Coast (Overberg)

Overberg whale watching

Hermanus is the jewel of the Overberg. Cradled by two large estuaries, this beautiful coastal town lies between the rocky coastline and gentle green mountains. World-renowned for its biodiversity, Hermanus has an abundance of plant, animal and bird life – a paradise for nature lovers.

The greatest attraction is undoubtedly the whales that migrate to the shores to mate and calve in the secluded bay (July to November). This has earned Hermanus the title of best destination in the world for land-based whale watching.

2 nights in the Winelands

Franschhoek wine route

Extend your stay to 3 nights Free of Charge

The Winelands offer breath-taking scenery, historic homesteads, 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. The Franschhoek Wine Tram hop-on hop-off tour is one of the best ways to discover the true essence of the Franschhoek Valley!

3 nights in the Cederberg

Cederberg rock formation

The Cederberg Mountains, burnt orange by iron oxide, dominate the landscape. Jagged sandstone rock formations, like the Maltese Cross and the Wolfberg Arch, and ancient San and Khoi rock art, make this area truly spectacular.

Each August or September, after the winter rains have fallen, the Cederberg area becomes a natural patchwork wonderland as spring flowers emerge to carpet the landscape in a striking array of vivid colours.

However, the springtime blooms are not all the Cederberg region has to offer. The region is one of the richest open-air rock art galleries in the world, with over 5000 sites in the Western Cape alone.

2 night on the West Coast

West Coast floral

The West Coast is blessed with stark natural beauty. Places such as Kraalbaai and Churchhaven, safely conserved in the West Coast National Park, are well worth visiting. The quaint fishing village of Paternoster famed for its picturesque wooden fishing boats scattered along the shoreline and home to the Cape Columbine Lighthouse and nature reserve is a must for those looking to sit back and destress.

Where else in the region would you find such an irresistible combination of pristine beach, whitewashed village charm, and little to disturb the gentle, soothing atmosphere a mere hour away from Cape Town?
