The day begins with a road that tightens into a cliff-hugging ribbon and a guide who knows when to pause and point. Glassy False Bay opens to the left, seals and surfers dotting the scene, while the mountain to the right looms with flat top and weathered sandstone. On this private full-day loop from Cape Town, travelers move quickly between dramatic coastal drives, a penguin colony that refuses to be shy, and the dizzying sweep of Table Mountain seen from the top of the cable car.
