CAPE WINELANDS FULL DAY TOUR

A wonderful experience awaits you as we leave the city and head into the countryside towards the magnificent Hottentots Holland, Helderberg and Simonsberg Mountains. The site of the vineyards with the background of these great mountains is simply awesome.You will visit a number of beautiful wine estates, taste award winning wines, go walk around in the oak tree lined streets of the historic University town of Stellenbosch the second oldest town in South Africa and wine capital of the region.
Your tour then moves on through beautiful countryside to the quaint village of Franschhoek (corner of France) which nestles beneath the majestic Franschhoek mountains. The French Huguenots settled in this picturesque valley some three hundred years ago. It is perhaps as result of this French heritage that Franschhoek valley produces some of the country's finest wines and is recognized as the culinary capital of South Africa. The tour allows for the opportunity to taste some of the internationally acclaimed wines produced in the valley.
All too soon we start out homeward journey

HERMANUS FULL DAY TOUR

This circular tour takes you over a mountain pass to the seaside town of Hermanus. This town, nestled between mountains and the sea, offers some of the best shore based whale watching opportunities in the world (August - November). Also includes a visit to the penguins at Stoney Point and 1 wine tasting. Return to Cape Town in the late afternoon.

WHALE WATCHING FULL DAY TOUR

Every year hundreds of Southern Right Whales visit the Gansbaai coastline to mate and give birth to their young. The best time to view these gentle giants "in the area" is between July & December (whale season). During the whale season the qualified marine guides on the top boat-based whale-watching vessel (Whale Whisperer), guarantee whale sightings as well as an introduction to the area's diverse and rich marine life. De Kelders (5 min. drive from the establishment) is also a very famous spot for land-based whale-watching because of its unique high cliffs and natural deep bays right next to it. During this period groups of whales often come in to relax and nurse their calves less than 50 meters away from the shore. Unlike all the other whale operators our operation does not only focus on the Southern Right Whale, but during this 2 ½ hour trip, passengers will not only see whales, but also: Cape fur-seals, African penguins, Cape cormorants and most importantly, stop at the shark boats to get a quick preview of typical great white shark behaviour.

SHARK CAGE DIVING FULL DAY TOUR

Every year between 25 000 - 30 000 tourists visit Gansbaai or more specifically Dyer Island (only 20 min. by boat from Kleinbaai) to encounter the Great White shark. The reason why so many sharks patrol the waters around the island is because of the 50 000 strong Cape fur seal colony on the nearby Geyser rock - seals are after all the white shark's main food source. Shark-viewing can be done from a boat (because white sharks feed at the surface). However, the ultimate experience undoubtedly is to come eye to eye with these awesome animals by submerging in a steel cage.
