24 days in Cape Town Itinerary

Sweeping beaches, towering hilltops, and picturesque vineyards adorn the landscape of Cape Town, dominated by the imposing Table Mountain.

Visiting Boulders Beach Penguin Colony and Stony Point Penguin Colony will get you outdoors. Relax by the water at Muizenberg Beach and Strand Beach. Get out of town with these interesting Cape Town side-trips: Stellenbosch (Rust en Vrede Tasting Room, Spas, &more), Hermanus (Sumaridge Wine Estate & Hermanus Cliff Path) and Franschhoek (La Motte Wine Estate, Franschhoek Pass, &more). And it doesn't end there: kick back and relax at Noordhoek Beach, get a new perspective on things with Dyer Island Cruises, get great views at Cape Point, and take in the awesome beauty at Twelve Apostles.
