The journey passes through charming seaside villages and breathtaking viewpoints, offering plenty of opportunities to stop for photos. On arrival at the Cape of Good Hope Nature Reserve, part of Table Mountain National Park, you’ll explore this iconic landmark at the tip of the Cape Peninsula. Visitors can enjoy short walks through pristine fynbos landscapes, spot wildlife such as ostrich, baboons, and antelope, and marvel at the rugged cliffs where the waves crash against the shore.
