Itineraries

Day 1

Arrival

Upon arrival in Cape Town, you’ll be greeted at the airport by an Iconic Expeditions representative and whisked away to your city accommodation.

You’ll have the afternoon and evening to spend at your leisure, with our team only too happy to make restaurant recommendations and reservations.

Day 2

Experience Cape Town

We’ll spend today immersing ourselves in the beauty of Cape Town today with a half-day city tour and an afternoon cableway ride to Table Mountain for a bird’s eye view of the city.

Your half-day Cape Town tour includes visits to the South African Museum, the beautiful Company Gardens, the parliament buildings, city hall, and the Castle of Good Hope.

You’ll then head into the colourful streets of multicultural Bo-Kaap, where you’ll visit local landmarks including Signal Hill, Green Market Square, and Clifton. You’ll even have a chance to visit one of the local diamond factories.

After your city tour is complete, you’ll board the scenic Table Mountain Cableway for a ride to the top of Cape Town’s most well-known landmark, from where you’ll have a spectacular view of the city.

Day 3

The Spectacular Cape Peninsula

We’ll head out after breakfast today for a full day exploring the stunning Cape Peninsula. Your day is one packed with isolated beaches, unspoiled landscapes, quaint villages, and the unique wildlife that makes the region so popular.

Our day starts with the idyllic beaches of Clifton & Camps Bay before we head over to the bustling fishing town of Hout Bay. While here, you’ll take a boat out to Seal Island to spend a little time observing the playful mammals that lend the island their name.

A visit to Cape Point to see firsthand where the Indian and Atlantic Oceans meet is our next stop en route to the highlight of the day: the penguin colony of Simon’s Town! These adorable birds call the nearby Boulders Beach home, and you’ll get a chance to see them up close.

We’ll then make our way back towards Cape Town, breaking up the drive with a visit to the beautiful Kirstenbosch Botanical Gardens to stretch your legs and snap a few photos. Nestled at the foot of Devil’s Peak Mountain, it’s an absolutely gorgeous spot and well worth the visit.

We’ll return to Cape Town in time for dinner.

Day 4

Flight to Wine Country

We’re going on a wine tour with a difference today, as you’ll take a helicopter flight all the way to the beating heart of South Africa’s world-famous wine country!

Soaring over the tapestry of landscapes sprawled out beneath you is the ideal way to start a day of world-class wine and delicious gourmet food in the twin wine towns of Stellenbosch and Franschhoek.

After a day of fine wine and fine dining, a private car will bring you back to Cape Town for a hearty dinner and a night’s rest.

Day 5

Farewell to Cape Town

After breakfast, an Iconic Expeditions vehicle will pick you up from your hotel and bring you to the airport for your onward travel.
