3-Day Private Cape Town Tour: Peninsula, Table Mountain & Winelands
A private three-day tour that strings Cape Town’s highlights into a single, practical itinerary: Table Mountain, the Cape Peninsula (penguins and Cape Point), city sights, and a day in the Winelands. Expect full days, varied terrain, and straightforward logistics with entrance fees and transport included.
The Experience
Before You Go
Layer for changing coastal weather
Mornings can be cool and winds pick up on headlands—pack a lightweight windproof layer you can stow.
Protect against strong sun
Even on overcast days UV exposure is high near the coast—use SPF 30+, a hat, and sunglasses.
Wear sturdy walking shoes
Short hikes, boardwalks and uneven penguin-beach access require closed-toe shoes with grip.
Bring a refillable water bottle
Long days and wine tastings make hydration important—many stops have refill points or water for sale.
