Description

Begin your adventure at the V&A Waterfront as we make our way to the heart of Cape Town, where you'll get a taste of the city's urban culture and historic charm. As you pedal through, soak in the lively atmosphere, old-world charm, and modern-day vibrancy that reflects the city's spirit. From the urban streets, we head towards the serene Green Point Park. This lush, landscaped park is a green oasis in the city, offering tranquil paths surrounded by indigenous plants. Enjoy stunning views of Signal Hill and Lion's Head, with plenty of spots to stop and admire the local flora and fauna. The park’s eco-friendly design and peaceful ambience make it a favourite among locals and visitors. Continue your journey to the historic Green Point Lighthouse, the oldest operational lighthouse in South Africa. Erected in 1824, this iconic red-and-white striped beacon has guided countless ships safely to shore. Learn about the lighthouse’s history, its keepers, and its important role in maritime navigation over the centuries. Next, we cycle along the iconic Sea Point Promenade, a long, flat path that hugs the coastline. This stretch along the Atlantic Ocean offers stunning coastal views, with the waves crashing against the rocky shoreline on one side and the bustling energy of Sea Point on the other. The promenade is a favourite among locals for jogging, walking, and cycling, and you'll feel the vibrant energy of the community as we ride along. After enjoying the coastal ride, we cycle to the Oranjezicht City Farm Market, a local gem celebrating Cape Town's farm-to-table culture (Saturday & Sunday mornings only). This popular market is a feast for the senses, offering fresh produce, delicious street food, artisanal products, and more. It's a great spot to pause and indulge in locally sourced treats while enjoying the lively atmosphere and mingling with locals and fellow travellers. The tour concludes at the vibrant V&A Waterfront, one of Cape Town's most visited attractions. Here, you’ll cycle past historic landmarks, and modern art installations, and enjoy views of the harbour and Table Mountain. The Waterfront has a fascinating maritime history that your guide will share. The V&A Waterfront is the perfect place to end our tour, offering a blend of relaxation and excitement in one of Cape Town's most famous locations.
