Overview
Join us on a fascinating 5-hour tour to meet these extraordinary flightless birds, known for their distinctive braying similar to donkeys. At Boulders Beach, nestled along False Bay near Simon’s Town, you’ll have an up-close encounter with African penguins.
This excursion promises a day filled with fun and the opportunity to interact with our unique Boulders Beach African penguin colony. You’ll travel in comfort in luxurious air-conditioned vehicles stocked with bottled water, guided by a knowledgeable professional driver.
Our itinerary begins with a scenic route along Chapman’s Peak to Simon’s Town, where you’ll be picked up from your hotel between 8:30 and 9:30 am. Upon arrival, our tuxedo-clad feathered friends await you on one of the region’s most picturesque beaches. If you fancy a swim with the penguins, don’t forget to bring your swimwear and a towel — it’s a safe and enjoyable experience for everyone, including moms and toddlers.
At the end of this memorable day, we’ll ensure you’re dropped off back at your hotel.
