Tour Details
Day 1:

Day 2:
Board the ‘Makana’ vessel at the Waterfront, which will be the starting point for a tour of Robben Island.
For nearly 400 years, Robben Island, 12 kilometers from Cape Town, was a place of banishment, exile, isolation and imprisonment. It was here that rulers sent those they regarded as political troublemakers, social outcasts and the unwanted of society. During the apartheid years Robben Island became internationally known for its institutional brutality. The duty of those who ran the Island and its prison was to isolate opponents of apartheid and to crush their morale. Some freedom fighters spent more than a quarter of a century in prison for their beliefs.
Following the Robben Island tour, guests will be met by a representative and transferred to the Table Mountain Cableway (weather permitting). Explore Cape Town’s most famous landmark on the Table Mountain Cableway. Take in the spectacular setting of Cape Town, the majestic mountain range of Lion’s Head and Signal Hill, while traveling up the mountain.

Day 4:
Visit the Cape Winelands area for a full day of wine tastings and cellar tours.
Situated in the heart of the Western Cape, South Africa’s Winelands have been described as the most beautiful in the world. This region, that includes Franschhoek, Paarl and Stellenbosch, is full of South Africa’s top wineries. Guests will have the opportunity to visit two of the best on this excursion, Boschendal in Franschhoek and Oude Libertas in Stellenbosch, the heart of the Winelands area. On arrival at Oude Libertas, guests are taken on a journey through the world of wine making, accompanied by an experienced guide. This tour will be followed by a wine tasting, giving guests the opportunity to sample some fantastic South African wines. A delicious lunch will be served in the restaurant overlooking the magnificent grounds of the winery. After lunch, it’s on to the Boschendal Estate. Situated at the gateway to the Franschhoek Valley, Boschendal is in one of the premier wine-growing regions of the Cape. The cool growing conditions in the Boschendal vineyards produce fine-bodied wines relatively low in sugar yet filled with ripe fruit flavours. Each wine is intrinsically different yet each portrays the inherent characteristics of the vineyards of Boschendal and each is distinguishable by its stylish finesse and elegance.
