For trips that matter
Some holidays are too important to leave to a search engine.
A golden anniversary with three generations. The family trip you have talked about for years. A week of wine, food and golf with people you rarely get enough time with.
Tell us what would make the trip special. We help you discover, choose and arrange a Cape experience that fits the people travelling, rather than forcing you into a standard itinerary.

Who we plan for
Different reasons to travel. The same desire to get it right.
The big family trip
Balance great food, time together, activities for different ages and enough space to do nothing at all.
Cape with friends
Wine, golf, beaches, restaurants and a driver who knows when the best plan is to take the long way home.
Winelands
Cape Town
Long lunches
Places we would send our own friends
The good places are only half the story.
Knowing when to go, what to combine, what to skip and how much to fit into one day makes the difference between a list of bookings and a great trip.
Franschhoek
L’Ami at La Motte
We'd go here for: a proper Winelands lunch in a day that still leaves room to wander through Franschhoek afterwards.
Cape Town
Mount Nelson
We'd go here for: a slower afternoon and high tea when the family wants a touch of old Cape Town.
Stellenbosch
Rust en Vrede
We'd go here for: the winemaker's lunch, then keep the rest of the afternoon deliberately light.
Hemel-en-Aarde
Creation Wines
We'd go here for: a long lunch on the way to or from Hermanus, not as one stop in a six-estate tasting marathon.
Cape Town
Kloof Street, Bo-Kaap and beyond
We'd go here for: a city day that mixes neighbourhoods, food and views without turning Cape Town into a checklist.
Make the Cape yours
However you like to spend your days, we know where to go.
The point is not to fill every hour. We help you choose the experiences that suit your family, your pace and the part of the Cape you are in.
Golf
Championship courses, spectacular settings and the right tee times.
Surf
From Muizenberg to the Atlantic coast, depending on experience and conditions.
Learn to kiteboard
One of the world's great places to learn, with trusted instructors.
Padel
A morning match before lunch in the Winelands or an afternoon in Cape Town.
Wine tasting
Skip the checklist. Visit fewer estates, but choose the ones worth remembering.
Horse riding
Through vineyards, along the beach or into the mountains.
Hiking
Table Mountain, Lion's Head, coastal paths and quieter local routes.
Fine dining
From landmark restaurants to smaller places we would book ourselves.
Beach & coast
Choose the right beach for the weather, the wind and the kind of day you want.
Art & design
Galleries, studios, architecture and places where the Cape's creative side comes through.
Wildlife & nature
Penguins, whales, reserves and quieter encounters with the Cape's natural world.
Wellness & spa
Make room for a slower day, whether that means a spa, a swim or simply a long lunch.
Tell us what your family loves. We'll build the Cape around it.
Tell us what you loveA taste of what a week could look like
Seven days.
Plenty to remember.
This is an example, not a package. The best itinerary depends on who is coming, how much you want to move around and what your family actually enjoys.
Build ours ↗Arrive in Cape Town
Settle in, take the temperature of the city and start with a dinner that suits the flight you have just had.
Cape Town, properly
Mountain, neighbourhoods, a good lunch and enough room to change the plan when the weather does.
The Peninsula
Chapman's Peak, Cape Point, coast and one or two stops worth getting out of the car for.
Into the Winelands
Move towards Stellenbosch or Somerset West. One estate, a long lunch, pool or golf later in the day.
Stellenbosch
Food, wine, gardens or art. Pick two things you will remember rather than five things you will forget.
Franschhoek
A beautiful drive, a serious lunch and time to browse galleries, shops or simply stay put.
Your family's day
Beach. Golf. Hiking. Padel. Wine. Food. Or nothing at all. The trip should fit you, not the other way around.
How it works
Start with the people, not the bookings.
Tell us about your trip
Dates, who is coming, the occasion, what everyone loves and what you would rather avoid.
We shape the Cape around you
We suggest a route, places and experiences that work together instead of handing you a generic list.
We help make it happen
Depending on what you need, we can help with the practical arrangements and trusted people on the ground.
