What To Expect
Start your tour with a friendly, professional tour guide who will pick you up from your accommodation. We will contact you the evening before the tour to confirm all the necessary arrangements. We take the scenic route up the magnificent Sir Lowrys Pass with a pitstop at the top and then travel through to Gansbaai where the boat trip starts. Spend about 3 hours on the boat with a marine tour guide. Depending on the time of year, you may see whales, dolphins, Cape fur seals, African penguins and great white sharks plus an abundance of sea bird life, all potentially in a single trip. Although the Southern Right whale season ends in early December, this is still an absolute must-see destination for wildlife photographers.
After the boat trip, drive home along the picturesque Gordon's Bay sea route.
Drop off at your accommodation at the end of a great experience.
* NB - the cost of the boat trip is extra (R2050pp)
