Itineraries

Day 1

Arrival to Cape Town

Upon arrival to CPT international airport, you have to clear immigration process and collect your luggage. You will be met by Iconic Expeditions driver who will take you to your hotel for a good rest after the flight. 

Day 2

The Mother City Tour

Breakfast. Private Morning or Afternoon City Tour: pick up from your hotel for a privately guided half-day city tour of Cape Town. Be captivated by the multiethnic character and historical wealth of the Mother City. Cape Town is a rare cultural gem, resulting from the amalgamation of different nationalities and indigenous tribes. Alongside high-rise office blocks, a harmonious blend of architectural styles has been meticulously preserved, including Edwardian, Victorian, and Cape Dutch. Narrow, cobblestone streets and the Islamic character of the Bo-Kaap enhance the cosmopolitan ambiance. The itinerary takes you to the City Hall, the Castle of Good Hope – this pentagon-shaped fort is the oldest surviving building in South Africa; the Company's Garden – a large public park, originally Jan van Riebeeck's vegetable garden, which he grew to feed the original colony as early as 1652; and Signal Hill with spectacular panoramas over the city, before returning to your hotel.

Marvel at the views of Cape Town from the aerial cableway and plateau on Table Mountain. Mother City is synonymous with the striking mountain flanked by Devil’s Peak to the east and Lion’s Head to the west, providing a dramatic backdrop to the city. Table Mountain holds a vibrant biodiversity and forms part of the Cape Floral Region, a protected area. Rock hyrax, or dassie as they are locally known, are often seen scampering through the scrub, and the views from the summit over Table Bay, Robben Island, and the Atlantic seaboard are breathtaking. The cable cars depart every 10 to 15 minutes and rotate 360 degrees as they travel up to 302 meters above sea level, giving passengers panoramic views over the city. Five minutes is all it takes to reach the summit, and once there you can marvel at the sights, have a bite to eat in the restaurant or do a bit of shopping at the extensive curio shop. The cableway only operates when weather permits.

Day 3

Cape Peninsula Trip

Breakfast. Private tour: pick up from your hotel for a full day privately guided Cape Peninsula tour to discover both the Atlantic and Indian Ocean coastlines. Your first stop is at the charming fishing village of Hout Bay, nestled in a picturesque valley on the shores of the Atlantic Ocean. Then continue along the Atlantic coast to the Cape of Good Hope Reserve and Cape Point, the southwesternmost tip of Africa and the mythical meeting place of the two great oceans. On the return trip, pass through the naval base of Simon's Town and then traverse the fishing port of Kalk Bay and the lush suburb of Constantia.

There is no better way to see the scale, magnificence, and beauty of Victoria Falls than from the air. A helicopter flight over the Falls is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to view one of the Seven Natural Wonders of the World.

We also fly over the Zambezi National Park, so you will have the opportunity to spot the game from the air. Our helicopters have specially developed bubble windows to give you the best view. We also don’t sell the middle seat, so all guests are guaranteed an uninterrupted view. Our helipad is only five minutes from town (the closest in Victoria Falls) and you can see the spray from the helipad. You’ll be over the Falls almost immediately after take-off.

A Chobe day trip takes you into one of the most impressive National Parks in the world. Chobe National Park, only an hour from Victoria Falls and Livingston, offers a unique opportunity to view some of the best games in Africa. Home to the world’s largest elephant population, the park is known for its huge prides of lions and great herds of buffalo. You might also be lucky enough to see the elusive leopard. For birders, Chobe is a delight and is home to over 460 bird species. Interestingly, the Chobe River is one of the few rivers in the world that flows in two directions. In the dry season, the river flows east but in the rainy season, the Zambezi River pushes upstream to reverse the flow of the river west. The trip is divided into two parts: A morning boat cruise, with game viewing from the Chobe river, and an afternoon game drives through the national park. Each activity lasts for 3 hours, and in between, you will get delicious hot lunch.
