The Western Cape’s long stretches along stunning landscapes make it the perfect region for biking—whether on gravel or road. You’ll cycle through the picturesque Cape Winelands, past Paarl's domed mountains, Franschhoek's bougainvillea-clad laneways and historic Cape Dutch-style farms. Discover traces of the Stone Age Khoi Bushmen in the ancient caves of the Whale Coast before enjoying an afternoon of fat biking on the expansive sand dunes. In Cape Town, bike along the stunning coastline of the Cape Peninsula and stop at Boulders Beach in Simon’s Town to admire the penguins. Biking in this pocket of South Africa is a cyclist's dream.

There is so much to do and explore on a multi-active trip in South Africa. You’ll experience the best of Cape Town, starting with a hike up iconic Table Mountain or Lion's Head, kayaking with penguins at Boulders Beach in Simon’s Town or encounter dolphins while kayaking at Three Anchor Bay. Then, step off the beaten track, jump into a 4x4, and explore Marakele National Park and Madikwe Game Reserve for an incredibly intimate safari experience in the remote northern reserves of South Africa. Here, the pace of life on safari will captivate you, with outstanding wildlife viewing—including the Big Five—and a compelling history behind the reserves.
