Hermanus has been recognized by the WWF (World Wildlife Fund) as one of the 12 best whale watching destinations in the world. The best time to enjoy whale watching in Hermanus is between July and November either from land, by boat or from the air via a scenic flight. The whale viewing during the months of July and August vary from year to year with regards to how many whales are present in Walker Bay and along the coast; however you are almost guaranteed of seeing whales in September, October and November.

You cant come to Cape Town without doing a wine tour?, not only is the wine great but it’s also one of the most scenic parts of the country. 10/10 for overall experience

This is a truly eye-opening tour.

Essential to every visitor to Cape Town. Experience life in the Township while being 100% safe. There’s lots of smiles and laughters to be met, townships are a concentrate of raw humanity.

Visitors who take this tour often genuinely care and are interested in knowing more about the people they meet and the places they see.

Cape Town has many different faces and this one is one of it’s most vibrant and hidden.

This is not only a township tour but a history and social lesson that examines the implications of this country’s former laws.

Here is why I recommend this tour:

Even if it’s only a little, some money does enter the community, whether through the purchase of art or souvenirs. This trickle-down economy is bound to be better than picking through trash.

The tour changes perceptions of poverty by putting a face to it and showing visitors that however poor, people are the same everywhere and share similar thoughts and emotions.

You will get to visit and area you would never go to otherwise.

Even in the poorest areas development and innovation is taking place: this township tour showcases the economic and cultural energies of the neighbourhoods.

This will improve your understanding of poverty and of one another – and of the world at large.
