All Cape Town Tours

If you’re seeking an outdoor adventure, Cape Town has you covered. You can hike, climb, and hang glide at Table Mountain National Park, visit the Cape’s resident penguins, and snorkel and scuba dive with sharks and seals. Further afield, take a road trip along the Garden Route or sip Pinotage on a wine-tasting tour of the Cape Winelands. It’s not all big thrills and ocean views, though. Cape Town tours also let you delve deeper into South Africa’s cultural heritage and apartheid history. Follow in Nelson Mandela’s footsteps at Robben Island, then explore the neighborhoods on a walking or cycling tour.
