A place like no other, the Western Cape boasts a cosmopolitan combination of people and places against a backdrop of awe-inspiring scenic wonders, pristine beaches and a proud heritage of cultures and traditions.
Visiting the tourism hotspots in the Western Cape with only a short amount of time on hand and with a limited budget were almost impossible. You either had to hire a car or take separate day tours to see it all.
HOTSPOTS2C was launched in 2007 to fill that gap.
HOTSPOTS2C makes it possible for tourists to see and experience more and there’s no need to travel back and forth to Cape Town. Accommodation and restaurant meals are determined by the client’s budget and personal preference, adding another level of flexibility to the product.
A three-day tour with HOTSPOTS2C includes a visit to Cape Point, a cellar tour and wine-tastings, a township tour in Kayamandi, seasonal whale watching at Hermanus, getting close to African penguins and enjoying the scenery of some of the world’s most beautiful mountain passes. The itinerary includes the fishing village of Hout Bay and the food and wine capital of the countryside, Franschhoek.
The price of a three-day tour includes entrance fees, a registered and informed local driver-guide and pick-ups and drop-offs from selected accommodation points. Scheduled departures are every Tuesday and Friday from Cape Town. HOTSPOTS2C uses luxury vehicles fitted with air conditioning, reclining seats, seatbelts and satellite tracking.
