    Adventure activities

    Prefer an activity to a driving day? See things to do in Cape Town, kayaking tours and guided hikes.

    Choosing your day tour from Cape Town

    Every day tour listed here is private: your own guide and vehicle, door-to-door hotel pickup in Cape Town, and an itinerary we can adjust on the day. Most tours run roughly 8–9 hours and return to your accommodation in the late afternoon.

    First visit to the city? Start with the Cape Point and Cape Peninsula tour — Chapman's Peak, the Cape of Good Hope reserve and the African penguins at Boulders Beach near Simon's Town — then add the city and Table Mountain tour.

    For the Cape Winelands, compare our Cape Town wine tours including Stellenbosch and Franschhoek. Between June and November, the Hermanus day tour and Hermanus whale watching are the strongest whale-season choices, while Gansbaai whale watching and shark cage diving sit further along the Whale Coast.

    Also popular: an Aquila Big 5 safari from Cape Town, our West Coast and Paternoster day tours, or a fully bespoke private Cape Town tour. For activities rather than driving days, see things to do in Cape Town.
