Enjoy a full-day journey from Cape Town to Hermanus, combining spectacular coastal scenery, whale watching, local experiences and hidden gems along the way.
Private, flexible and personalised — your day, your way.
We believe every guest should have the freedom to enjoy Cape Town and Hermanus differently. Whether you prefer scenic viewpoints, wildlife, local markets, wine, food or simply a relaxed day, we keep the itinerary flexible around you.
ITINERARY
Departure from Cape Town: 08:30
For guests with a 12:00 whale-watching boat, we plan the route to arrive in time for your boat departure.
For guests with a 15:00 boat, please allow for a later return to Cape Town, usually around 19:00–19:30, depending on the length of the boat trip, weather and road conditions.
Your Day Can Include:
- Scenic coastal routes and photo stops
- Clarence Drive and beautiful viewpoints
- Stony Point Penguin Colony — a quieter and more intimate penguin experience
- Hermanus town and whale-watching viewpoints
- Free time to explore local craft markets
- Optional lunch at a restaurant of your choice
- A visit to a small wine estate or hidden Winelands gem for a relaxed wine experience.
- Alternatively, enjoy lunch at a beautiful wine estate
A Flexible Route
- Your route is planned around your whale-watching boat time.
- If you prefer a different experience, we can also travel via Sir Lowry's Pass, with a stop at a farm store for coffee and fresh bakery treats before continuing towards Hermanus, then return via a scenic route.
This is not a fixed itinerary. We will tailor the day around your boat time, weather conditions and personal interests, wherever possible.
