Overnight on Table Mountain

Table Mountain is one of the official New7Wonders of Nature, and the only one located in an urban area. Competing against major international attractions, Table Mountain made it to the top seven after more than 100-million global votes. It should come as no surprise that our flat-topped, sea-emerging mountain made it to our top three tours. Table Mountain attracts more than 4.2 million visitors every year and is the most visited park in South Africa. It has 8 200 species of plant, which is more than the entire British Isles! We hike up to the top of Table Mountain via a Jeep Track and sleep in one of the mountain cabins up top, after dropping our heavy bags we are off to do some exploring of the best kept secrets on Table Mountain

Karoo Wild Flower

This tour is run exclusively by This is Cape Town and only runs over the wild flower season of August & September. We visit an old town in the Western Karoo which makes you feel like you have turned back the clock and stepped into an unknown world of centuries ago! You can expect 3 days of adventure & hiking, 2 nights accommodation, 2 farm breakfasts & 2 farm dinners, as well as a donkey trip.

Cedarberg Gems

Visiting the Cedarberg should be on everyone's bucket list! Our three day and two night adventure takes you to Cedarberg's best gems. We journey through Stadsaal, Wolfberg Cracks, the famous Wolfberg Arch, as well as the Maltese Cross. This tour can be custom made to suit your budget from camping and braaing to staying at one of the guesthouses in the Cedarberg with all meals included.
