South Africa's Western Cape Province is an extraordinarily fortunate region. Walks in outstanding mountain scenery and along magnificent coastline are coloured by midsummer displays of wildflowers. The delightful wine region, exceptional accommodation, whales just offshore and Cape Town – perhaps the most beautiful city in the world – complete an unforgettable holiday.

As a highlight of our October walking tour in the Cape we spend two nights in Hermanus, acknowledged as one of the best whalewatching sites in the world. A splendid cliff path provides views of Southern Right whale (Eubalaena Australis) which use these clear coastal waters as calving and nursery grounds.
