Authentic Cape Culture & Township Cycle with Bike & Saddle
This socially responsible tour allows guests to experience a side of South Africa that escapes most tourist brochures. We shuttle from your hotel to Masiphumelele township, an informal settlement of 50,000 people, where we enjoy a cycle tour through the township with a local guide. We visit a preschool, the local library as well as the house of a traditional healer (sangoma), and even sample authentic African cuisine. Not only does this uplifting tour give an insight into the lives of many South Africans, it also makes an important contribution to this community!
NB: This tour can be done in either the morning or the afternoon. The Full Day Tour includes a stunning cycle round the peninsula and a picnic on the beach.

KNYSNA 85KM MTB 2019
Wet, cold and Windy ride. Tough day in the saddle. 6km into the race my fork decided to stop working.. :( Drove into a ditch and the fork completely seized up. I only really realized after 50km that something was seriously not right. My hands and wrist was in so much pain that I could not keep the handlebars anymore. I eventually stopped to inspect and realized what went wrong and manually removed some air from the shock. Not ideal but this at least allowed me to finish the race. Camera had water damaged and stopped recording after 1:20.
I finished the race in 4:46:38

Cape Town Peninsula tour, by African Eagle DayTours
When visiting Cape Town, embarking on a day tour of Cape Point and the Peninsula is a must do. The best way to do this tour is with a reputable tour operator. African Eagle Day Tours is one such company. Operating in Cape Town, they offer many day tours including wine tours and of course Cape Peninsula tours.
The cape peninsula tour is one of the most breathtaking day tours one can undertake when in Cape Town. The day tour starts in Cape Town city centre and the Cape Waterfront. From there one travels along the Atlantic seaboard taking in some of the magnificent cape beaches. This fully guided experience allows one not only to take in the scenic beauty, but be entertained by fascinating stories and interesting facts relating to Cape Town and its peninsula.
This is definitely one of the most popular day tours in the Cape and it's not difficult to understand why. Who does not want to visit the historically infamous Cape of Good Hope, or the mythical meeting point of the Atlantic and Indian oceans at the tip of Africa? Cape Point sometimes seems to be a meeting place for all the tour operators. Their busses fill the parking lot while their visitors are taking in the wonders offered by this wonderous place commonly known as the Cape of Good Hope Nature Reserve.
So when you are next planning your holiday tour to Cape Town, make a point of doing a day tour to Cape Point with a reputable tour operator such as African Eagle Day Tours.
