A Taste of South Africa

Start your morning off with a wellness class and breakfast before enjoying the amenities of the hotel. Later in the morning, we will set off for Cape Peninsula, where you will experience the sparkling water of the Atlantic Ocean and feel the spray of salt water on your face. Using easy to paddle, two person kayaks, we will explore the crystal waterways of this fascinating area.
Enjoy the views of the rocky pools and the warmth of the sun on your shoulders as you view the penguins waddling over the rocks and gliding through the water!
After drying off, we will continue to an included lunch overlooking the ocean. Later in the afternoon, return to the hotel for the afternoon at leisure before you end our day with a culinary experience at a local restaurant.

After an early breakfast, your afternoon will start with a Table Mountain hike from the lower cable station on Taffelklip Gorge. The trail is the oldest, easiest, and most direct route to the summit and therefore also the most popular, so expect company along the way.
You will experience jaw dropping photo opportunities of the iconic front face of the mountain and its imposing cliffs as we trail up a beautiful deep ravine.
After the hike, enjoy lunch at leisure before returning to your hotel to relax. Later in the evening, we will head out for dinner at a local restaurant in the V&A Waterfront.

After a leisurely breakfast this morning, you will be transferred to the enchanting Cape Winelands to visit two outstanding wineries: Vergenoegd Löw and Boschendal.

This experience offers you the chance to taste award-winning estate wines right among the vineyards where they are produced. Our expert guides will walk you through what makes this area so biologically diverse and unique. Light snacks, perfectly paired with each wine, will accompany the tasting.
