Can’t even describe how beautiful the drive is through Chapmans Peak. Be sure to stop along the way at the many pull off sections. We watched hundreds of dolphins jumping and playing in the water below us. The scenery is beautiful and it’s not a bad drive.

We drove from Camps Bay past the Twelve Apostles and on bia Chapmans Peak to Hout Bay. It’s absolutely breathtaking, panoramic scenery from the stuff of films with huge craggy passes and bright blue horizon. Time it with sunset if you can. Just gorgeous

Hiring a car in Cape Town is easy and most definitely worth it just to do the drive to Chapmans Peak. the scenery on the way back is actually even more spectacular than on the way there. We stopped off along the way and made a day of it which was just wonderful

After reading about the famous drive, I definitely wanted to drive the route. The drive itself is pretty special, especially surrounded by amazing views on one side, and then towering cliffs on the other. There are certain points on the route where you can park to take pictures, or just admire the views. The only thing to add is that though the drive is great, I think I might have had too high expectations hence only 4*s. It may also be the fact the weather was pretty miserable that day, and the driver in front kept on stopping abruptly so the drive wasn't as smooth and enjoyable as it could be. Note you do have to pay a toll charge in order to drive the route.

As part of the Gate 1 South African Safari Tour we drove down the Cape Town peninsula along the Chapman’s Peak Drive. Our bus seemed continuously perched on the edge of the road as we saw the beautiful scenery of the area. It was our time to just sit back and enjoy the view.
