Overview

Travelers should book with us because we have been in this business for more than 25 years. It is our experience and astute decisions to craft such transfers which has led us to be where we are today. We use the best tourist guides who are mature and also born and bred in South Africa. They have passion for their work and they do have a great sense of belonging hence they look after nature which in turn looks after us. Our vehicles are among the best in the industry as we use luxury minivans for this transfer. We also listen to the travelers and are prepared to stop anyway along the way as per traveler's requests. This is mainly for a photoshoot as long as it does not compromise other road users. Last but not least safety of the travelers is our topmost consideration. This tour takes them to Hermanus one of the most scenic coastal town in South Africa. Travelers also visit the penguins at Stony Point with over 3 600 penguins.

Itinerary

  • Grabouw (Pass By)

    This is a very small town situated along the N2 freeway 65 km south-east of Cape Town. It is the commercial centre of the vast Elgin Valley. It is surrounded by mountains and experiences a mild Mediterranean climate. Grabouw is surrounded by the Hottentots Holland and Groenland mountains to the north, and the Kokelberg Biosphere Reserve to the south. In the town the Apple Museum is one of the oldest remaining buildings and it depicts the history of the fruit industry in the region.

  • Elgin Valley Honey (Pass By)

    Drive past this huge lush area surrounded by mountains in the Overberg region in South Africa. Lying about 70 km southeast of Cape Town it is just beyond the Hottentots Holland Mountains. This region is one of the more intensively farmed districts in South Africa producing 60% on the national apple crop. Look out for the dramatic mountains and the rolling valleys in all directions. Of late there has been a shift in economic focus leading to Elgin becoming one of the country's notable and successful wine regions. Look out for the huge vineyards as you drive by on the foot of the mountains.

  • Hermanus

    Explore this picturesque town on the southern coast of the Western Cape Province of South Africa. This town is famous for the Southern Right Whale watching during the winter to spring period. Take a walk along the 11 km trail which brings you close to the whales as they are mostly around during the period June to early December every year. There are several restaurants along the coast where travelers can have a delicious meal while watching these gentle giants. Take a walk on the pavilion where you can also shop for art and craft or even books in some of the book shops. This place is also known to be a great fishing location so you can expect a great seafood meal. There are several view points where whales can be viewed from but the Gearings Point is the most popular of them all. Choose a location where you can sit with your loved one along the coast where there are wooden benches or simply on the green grass.

  • Stony Point Nature Reserve

    Visit this small tourist attraction which is home to a Penguin Colony with over 3 600 penguins. This is an equally attractive place located in the quaint coastal town of Betty's Bay.

Also present at the colony are three species of cormorant; the Crowned cormorant, Cape cormorant and Bank cormorant. Travelers can also observe the Hartlaub's Gulls, Kelp Gulls and the Rock Hyrax commonly known as Dassie on the surrounding rocks. Take exceptionally beautiful photos at this location as next to it is an attractive background of the dramatic Kogelberg Mountains.
