World of Birds is the largest bird park in Africa and one of the few large bird parks in the World, with more than 3 000 birds (and small animals) of 400 different species are uniquely presented in more than 100 spacious landscaped walk through aviaries, allowing you the most intimate closeness with nature.

5

We proceed along the coastal Atlantic route and stop in Hout Bay at the Harbour. Here you may enjoy the option of either taking a 45-minute boat trip to Duiker (Seal) Island to view the seals colony or you may browse the local arts and crafts market to do some shopping.

6

Charter the boat with Drumbeat Charters and enjoy a shared boat adventure to Duiker (Seal) Island for a close up view of the Cape Fur seals colony. The entire experience lasts for 45-minutes including the journey to and from Duiker Island. We do not recommend this activity if the weather is unfavourable as the ocean can be rough and make for an unpleasant experience.

The highlight of the day would essentially be the Cape of Good Hope as we will explore the Diaz and Da Gama monuments and take our iconic photo behind the Cape of Good Hope name board.
