The Peninsula tour is probably the most popular tour to do when visiting Cape Town. The route has spectacular views of the ocean all around and pass through some iconic sights.

Suburbs such as Muizenberg, Scarborough, Kommetjie, Noordhoek and Kalk Bay will be visited. The latter has recently been named: “The coolest neighborhood in the world” by Forbes Magazine!

Your guide will collect you from your hotel and take you to the selected start. After setting up your bike and safety briefing, the adventure starts. The cycle starts with a spectacular cycle up the iconic Chapman’s Peak Drive (Chappies). After heading down into Noordhoek we head to Simon’s Town. This is where you will visit the amusing penguins of Boulder’s Beach Penguin Colony. The coastal route towards Cape Point Gate has spectacular views of False Bay. A quick visit to Cape Point Ostrich Farm and a well-deserved stop for coffee and refreshments at Scarborough awaits along the route. From here we cycle along Misty Cliffs, Masiphumelele and either back over Chappies or an extended route over Constantia Nek to the start. The Cape of Good Hope can be added for the adventurous at heart. Here you will most likely spot ostrich, baboon and of you are lucky, the Eland, which is the largest antelope in South Africa.

Your guide will load the bikes and drop you off at your hotel
