What's included in Cape City Like-a-Local Full Day Tour with Private Guided Transfer
(Subject to Option Inclusions)Itinerary
Table Mountain
Start your private tour with a pickup from your Cape Town hotel, and then travel into the center of town by air-conditioned minivan. As you travel, chat with your guide about the city and the attractions that you want to see; the itinerary is flexible and can be tailored to the sights you want to see. Perhaps start with a cable car ride up Table Mountain, the city’s famous UNESCO World Heritage site. The ride is at your own expense and subject to good weather conditions, but once at the top, the views are magnificent. During July/August the cable car is closed for about two weeks for annual maintenance, but the hiking trails remain open.
Signal Hill
Alternatively, skip the ride and travel up Signal Hill by minivan. The hill is a classic Cape Town vantage point and a picturesque spot for ogling the city and beach vistas. Return to town for a walking tour around Cape Town itself.
Company's Gardens
Wander past Company’s Gardens, a colonial-era park boasting a pretty Rose Garden and large fish pond. Walk past several sites linked to the city’s tenuous history with slavery such as Slave Lodge and the Old Slave Tree, and gaze at top Cape Town attractions including the Houses of Parliament.
