OUR TRENDING DESTINATIONS

Explore the mother city.

Let Cape Town bring you into her warm embrace to explore her centuries-old heritage, extraordinary natural beauty and fascinating culture. Ramble through the cobbled streets of Bo Kaap, survey the peninsula from Table Mountain in the company of curious dassies and uncover the dark days of apartheid on Robben Island

Cape Peninsula

Endless ocean views.

Extending south into the stormy Atlantic Ocean from the Mother City, the Cape Peninsula offers a mesmerising backdrop for a leisurely drive along its rugged coastline, past picturesque seaside towns, the imposing 12 Apostles and Cape Point looking out towards endless ocean views.

Cape Winelands

Enjoy a magical encounter.

Enjoy a magical encounter with the picturesque Cape Winelands – vineyard-clad hills, centuries-old country estates and imposing mountains provide an unforgettable backdrop for time spent indulging in the delicious flavours and vintages of this famous region, which includes the historic towns of Stellenbosch, Paarl, Franschhoek, Robertson and Tulbagh, among others.

Cape West Coast

Indulge all your senses.

Indulge all your senses as you meander up the Cape West Coast, from the rolling vineyards and olive groves in the south, past quaint fishing villages along the beautiful Atlantic coastline to the rugged Cederberg and flower-clad fields of Namaqualand in the north.

Cape Overberg

Embrace the soulful surrounds.

Embrace the soulful surrounds, exquisite natural beauty and hearty hospitality of the Cape Overberg as you meander through rolling canola- and fynbos-clad peaks, past quiet coves and charming seaside villages indulging in the delicious flavours of local cuisine and wines.

Klein Karoo

A boon for nature lovers.

A boon for nature lovers, the Klein Karoo, is surrounded by mountain ranges that protect this seemingly barren inland valley with its diverse succulent species, monumental cave systems and ancient San and Khoi heritage. Most notable in this region, however, is the charming town of Outdshoorn, the hub of South Africa’s ostrich meat, feather and skin trade.

GUEST TESTIMONIALS

Lieber Axel, wir möchten uns nochmal herzlich für deine Tourbegleitung vorgestern zum West Coast National Park und heute zu den verschiedenen Weingütern im Bereich Franschhoek und Stellenbosch bedanken. Es hat uns zum einen viel Spaß gemacht, weil du so ein offener, fröhlich gestimmter Mensch bist und auch, weil du uns so viele Infos gegeben hast, die nicht nur die Touren betrafen, sondern auch das Leben in dieser Region allgemein. Auch durch deine Zuverlässigkeit und das komfortable, sichere Auto hatten wir das Gefühl, ein Rundum-Sorglos-Paket erhalten zu haben.Bei der Organisation und der Tour selbst zeigtest du viel Flexibilität und gingst auf die Wünsche oder äußeren Gegebenheiten ein. Wir wünschen dir alles Gute und werden The Cape Explorer sicherlich weiter empfehlen. Es grüßen dich herzlich Rainer und Ria
Bereits zu Beginn der Reise bestand ein tolles Verhältnis. Die Vorbereitungen waren bemerkenswert. Bereits beim ersten Kennenlernen war zu merken, dass vorab diverse Planungen gemacht wurden. Es wurde zusätzlich zur eigentlichen Ablaufplanung auch an Flyer und Broschüren gedacht, die zusätzlich zu Landesinformationen auch Sicherheitsgrundlagen berücksichtigten. Der Ablauf war vom ersten Tag an super durchdacht und auch hinsichtlich der Reihenfolge optimal. Hier wurde Wert darauf gelegt, dass zunächst Kapstadt und dann die nährere Umgebung aufgezeigt wurden. Zusätzlich zu den tollen Erlebnissen tat das Wetter mit freier Sicht sein übriges (auch wenn das nicht in der Macht des Cape Explorer lag, machte es dennoch die gesamte Reise zu einem unvergesslichen Erlebnis). Bei Axel Simon war jederzeit die Verbundenheit zu der Region zu spüren. Auch die Art und Weise der Vermittlung der Sehenswürdigkeiten, sowie der ggf. geschichtlichen oder regionalen Zusammenhänge war klasse. Besonders bemerkenswert war die Tatsache, dass die gemeinsamen Aktivitäten nicht pünktlich nach einem 8-stündigen Arbeitstag beendet wurden. Axel stand jederzeit beratend und hilfreich zur Seite.
Hi there, we have just completed our 4 th  tour with The Cape Explorer / Axel in the Cape Town area. Each tour was well organized, well prepared and included our individual wishes. The driving was extremely comfortable. We much liked the free WiFi provided in the car, which provided a great possibility to share our beautiful impressions instantly with family and friends back home. Axel’s sensibility, charming approach and comprehensive knowledge made the tours a very pleasant and memorable experience. The next tour is already booked. I can highly recommend Axel and The Cape Explorer to discover the stunningly beautiful Cape Region to anybody who values quality, style, personal service and reliability.

Secret Cape Town

Explore Sideways: An Immersive Tours Experience

Cape Town is an adventurer’s dream come true! If you were to do one new thing every day for a year, you would still not be able to work through all the awesome activities. From hiking a mountain, to exploring street art, to sipping wine with an epic view, the options are truly endless.

But where do you start? And how do you know what will be worth your time? By using the services of an immersive, luxury tour company, you can make the most of your time in the Mother City. Instead of simply following the masses of tourists to all of the popular spots, you can delve deeper into what the city has to offer you.

Explore Sideways: A Different Perspective on Cape Town

Explore Sideways was created by passionate wine and food lovers.  While wine and food remains their biggest passions, they have expanded their services to include everything from adventure to art and culture and more. Drawing on years of personal exploration of the city, they have created an insider’s map to all of the hidden gems.

With Explore Sideways, every experience is personally curated to make sure that memories are created for a lifetime. Fill your trip with a balance of adventure and immersive local food exploration, or spend a day out in the winelands, a short drive away from the city. From the well-known wine estates, to the little hidden boutique wine farms – you choose what you want to explore.

Explore-Sideways-Luxury-Cape-Town-Tours

What Kind of Tours Does Explore Sideways Offer?

If tasting wine is not quite high on your to-do list, why not book an adventure or wellness experience? Or how does an arts & culture outing sound to you? Tick off a few items from the Bucket List tours , or indulge in a Romantic Getaway. They also offer family-friendly adventures.

Your  expert tour consultant will create an extraordinary private experience, keeping your personal interests and preferences in mind. The specialist guide accompanying you on your tour will offer you insider information to further enhance your experience. From a sunset horse ride through a charming vineyard to an adrenaline-filled zipline through imposing ravines – Explore Sideways can offer it all.

How Do You Explore Sideways?

By venturing off the beaten track, you can see a completely different side of Cape Town. Sure, you should definitely ascend Table Mountain, soak up the vibe of the V&A Waterfront, and maybe visit the penguins of Boulder’s Beach, but the city has so much more to offer you!

Instead of trying to unravel the secrets of the city on your own, trust the Explore Sideways team of food, wine and cultural insiders to point you in the right direction. Every experience is handcrafted with integrity, passion, and expertise, using Cape Town’s finest tour guides selected based on your tour and preferences.  

Explore-Sideways-Luxury-Wine-Tours

How to Book an Explore Sideways Tour

The first step is to tell Explore Sideways a bit more about your tour needs. Fill in the handy online form with more information about yourself such as the purpose of your travelling, whether it’s your first time visiting Cape Town, and your general interests.
