Suggestions for a 10 day trip to cape town, south africa

I am interested in a trip to Cape Town, South Africa. I am only interested in Cape Town and maybe some of the surrounding areas. Is there are USA based tour company that do 7-10 escorted tours of the Cape Town area. Please not that i am NOT interested in ANY kind of self-drive no matter how easy it might be. I was thinking about just finding a good deal on a air ticket booking a week at the holiday inn express and tour on my own(via private driver) any thoughts?

There are companies in Cape Town that do daily driver rates to take you anywhere in the region... a couple that come to mind are Rumadani and Hylton Ross. It's not like a group with a leader for the whole time, but if you want someone to take you out each day- to wherever you like- companies like that can do it.

I can recommend Cape Eco-Tours where Mariana has been very quick to respond to emails, provides specific quotes and offers a range of trips around Cape Town like Cape Point, Hermanus and West Coast National park. More info on her website, http://www.cape-ecotours.co.za/?imprint

Happy planning,


Pol

I hear you on the no self drive part.

Wayne of Take2Tours was great. He is based in Cape Town.

Do you know what all you want to do there?
