Boulders Beach - African Penguins home
I will take you to Boulders Beach the most remarkable viewing point of the African Penguins. These African Penguins have colonies from Southern Namibia and all the way around the South African coast. I will will make your experience rewarding as this is the only place where you will be able to swim with the Penguins in close proximity. Penguins are living in the wild and therefore although you get to see them up close and personal there will be no direct contact as I am committed to protecting the welfare of these little guys. The Penguin numbers are fast declining because of over fishing and marine pollution and my goal is teach tourists about our Penguin population, as they are now classified as an endangered species.
As this is a private tour, there is flexibility in photo opportunities along the way, and including stopping to take pictures with the seals.
Other things to note
Bring your camera to take lots of pictures.
Ocean Wildlife Encounter from a boat
This is a very different boat experience from those offered by the yacht companies in the Waterfront. There's no set route and the emphasis is on finding and safely and respectfully watching the amazing creatures in this spectacular environment.
After a short safety briefing, our route is dictated by where I expect to encounter dolphins, whales, seals, penguins, sunfish, and other amazing ocean wildlife.
These trips are a photographers dream. Always safe, respectful and legal, the encounters are close and very exciting with jaw-dropping views of Cape Town and Table Mountain.
The boat is an exhilarating 7.2m power boat that allows us to move nimbly as needed. It's fully equipped with safety equipment that goes beyond the SAMSA requirements for these trips.
Bring warm clothes, sun cream cameras and an adventurous spirit.
Please feel free to contact me for exclusive boat charters and group bookings.
Experience the Stellenbosch Winelands
A celebration of smaller vineyards driven by passion, honesty and quality. Our first stop is on the Eastern side of Stellenbosch at the foot of the Helderberg Mountains. This is a special location tucked away in the most northern corner of Paradyskloof (Paradise Valley). Pockets of special vines produce a superlative and memorable first tasting.
A journey through the vibrant and tree lined streets of Stellenbosch town is up next. Steeped in history and charm we'll tell a few stories from the time we spent here during our youth before we reach the Banghoek Valley. Breath-taking views set the tone for an unforgettable experience with the focus on letting our guests understand the sense of place and taste. These award winning wines are brilliantly crafted and produced with the help of the location's very own microclimate. I struggle to believe there is a better setting to taste wine anywhere in the country.
Lunch then takes place at Boschendal's Farm Deli Restaurant on the oldest estate in the region dating back to 1865.
The final destination is at a quaint family owned and run vineyard where we host the tasting privately in their underground cellar below their family home or in their garden often with one of the true matriarch's of the industry and her 5 doggos. 3 different wineries all unique in location, style and charm combining for a true Stellenbosch Winelands experience.
Amazing Cape Town in a day
You'll be exploring the best of Cape Town in a jam-packed day. Relax in privacy and comfort while I show you some of the best of what my city has to offer. Eat & explore like a local, with a local!
We start off exploring the Western slope of Table Mountain National Park along the Atlantic Seaboard heading towards Cape of Good Hope. Passing through Hout Bay, Chapmans Peak and more. You'll have an opportunity to take in the breath taking views while hiking down to the Cape of Good Hope or ride the fernicular up to the Cape Point light house.
We then depart to Boulders Beach for PENGUIN SPOTTING! You'll have the opportunity to visit the sanctuary and the beach while exploring at your leisure.
After saying goodbye to the penguins, we make our way to our lunch venue at one of THE BEST locations in the Constantia wine district.
The oldest wine producing region in the country where you'll enjoy great food, wine, views and conversation.
This experience is more that just the landscape and natural beauty of Cape Town. I'll discuss the rich history of the city from personal life experience having grown up here. From the dark past, post apartheid legacies and challenges, to the endless potential for this beautiful city and country.

Revel in the Cape Peninsula and African Penguins
We get an early start to avoid the big tour buses as we head to one of only 2 places on the continent where you can experience the African Penguin. These friendly little guys have been kind enough to share their spectacular beach with us. We'll make our way through a secret passage among the boulders and vegetation to get close to these gentle and curious birds without being intrusive. Our next stop is the historic Cape Point National Park in search of Ostriches, Eland and the illusive Cape Mountain Zebra, you'll also have the chance to experience two must have moments: The visit to the Cape of Good Hope Corner and the Lighthouses of Cape Point. A tram trip to the top lighthouse costs 85 ZAR extra if you'd prefer not to walk.
We then head to one of the world's most beautiful coastal roads; Chapmans Peak Drive where we'll prepare a craft gin tasting of our very own award winning Pesky Hobbit Gin born during the global hardships of 2020. Our final stop is at a destination synonymous with Capetonian foodie culture. The local fisherman of Hout Bay have long been regarded as the best in the business when it comes to delivering the tastiest Fish and Chips in SA. This is a real winner and a must do for lunch during your time here. Our last stretch after a memorable day is along the coastal road via Llandudno Beach and Camps Bay back to your accommodation or drop-off point.

African Food and Storytelling Tour
The experience includes about around 5 to 7 stops, where we visit, celebrate and get to listen to African (mainly) food entrepreneurs.

Share some fresh Injera, steaming soft pap, and floral cafe touba with us, while listening to stories about food and community from East-, West, and South Africa.
