Itinerary
Giorno 1 — Cape Town
Free day, we recommend visiting della città, Discovered in 1652 by the Dutch, who used it as a supply base for their ships bound for the East, Cape Town is now considered one of the most multifaceted cities in the world. It is dominated by landscapes of extraordinary beauty, where sea, mountains and countryside merge into a unique whole that leaves everyone speechless.
The tour begins at Table Mountain, which offers a magnificent view of the city. However, the ascent by cable car is subject to weather conditions; moreover, between July and August, the facility is closed for annual maintenance. Alternatively, you can climb Signal Hill and then continue with an orientation tour of the city.,
Giorno 2 — Cape Town
Free day, we recommend visiting Penisola del Capo, Cape Town is located on a spectacular mountainous peninsula that extends into the ocean. From the city, you can follow the Atlantic coast through the suburbs, beaches, and the Twelve Apostles promontory. In Hout Bay, you can embark on a cruise to Seal Island, an island inhabited by hundreds of Cape fur seals and cormorants. Then, you can drive along Chapman's Peak Drive, which with its 114 curves in 9 km is one of the most spectacular coastal roads in the world (subject to closure in bad weather). You will arrive at Cape Point, the famous Cape of Good Hope, the extreme tip of the peninsula where the Atlantic Ocean and the Indian Ocean meet. The first land you encounter south of the Cape is Antarctica; you can reach it by cable car. You will then reach Simon's Town for a seafood lunch. Visit the nearby Boulders Beach to see the rare African penguins, which are at risk of extinction.,
Giorno 3 — Cape Town
Free day, we recommend visiting Regione dei Vigneti, South Africa has long been a renowned producer of quality wines, especially in the Winelands area, literally "the lands of wine". The plateau, which extends from Cape Town inland and gradually rises in altitude, is a renowned wine region, considered by experts to be the best in South Africa. The magnificent mountain ranges that surround Stellenbosch and Franschhoek contribute to creating an ideal microclimate for vineyards. The first colonial settlements in this region date back to the second half of the 17th century, when the Dutch founded Stellenbosch and the French Huguenots settled in Franschhoek. Both of these cities are rightly proud of their young and innovative chefs, many of whom work at the wineries, and in recent years the region has become the driving force behind South African cuisine. Although it has long been overshadowed by the two nearby cities, the emerging Paarl deserves to be visited. Within a radius of 60 km from Cape Town, in the valleys and on the hills, the traditional Cape Dutch architecture of the Dutch settlers is in perfect harmony with the natural environment. To fully experience the Winelands, with its 600 wineries, the refined gastronomic tradition imported from Europe and enriched by local flavors, luxurious cottages and elegant boutique hotels scattered among the vineyards and the cities of Franschhoek, Stellenbosch, and Paarl, it is recommended to stay at least one night.,

Free day, we recommend visiting Panorama Route, The Panorama Route itinerary winds from the rugged Drakensberg mountain range to Kruger National Park, passing through sites such as God's Window, Bourke's Luck Potholes, the Three Rondavels, the Mac Mac Falls, and the Blyde River Canyon: a succession of mountain streams, rolling hills, spectacular waterfalls, and imposing mountain gorges. The towns of Lydenberg and White River are located at the beginning of the Panorama Route. Other small towns include Sabie, Graskop, Orighstad, Hoedspruit, and Hazyview. The most famous is Pilgrim's Rest, a kind of living museum dedicated to the gold rush era. Blyde River Canyon is one of the largest in the world, stretching 20 km long and reaching depths of up to 700 m: God's Window is its most spectacular viewpoint. Other notable sites include Bourke's Luck Potholes, giant potholes carved over millions of years by the rotating movement of water; the Three Rondavels, rocky mesas with a shape reminiscent of African conical roof constructions; and the summit of Long Tom Pass, the mountain pass named after the cannon used by the Boers during the Anglo-Boer War. Along the way, you can stop at small art galleries and local craft shops. The Panorama Route also offers a wide choice of places to stop for a meal or a snack.,
