Cape Kaleidoscope Tour
Cape Kaleidoscope is a delightful tour that takes you along the Route 62 through Barrydale and Robertson to Oudtshoorn where you will enjoy a tour of the Cango Caves and have the chance to meet and possibly ride an ostrich.
Our tour then journeys to Knysna where we explore the oyster capital of the Western Cape before heading onto Mossel Bay via the town of Wilderness. Our time spent in Mossel Bay takes us into the Diaz Museum and the Old Post Office tree where we learn more about Bartholomew Diaz and South Africa's history.
Our third night and forth morning are dedicated to nature and wildlife as we head off on an evening and morning game drive before continuing onto the quaint town of Arniston. The final day of the tour is spent wandering along the coast back towards Cape Town, through Hermanus and False Bay where we enjoy spectacular views and, in season, may even see some whales playing in the waves.
