Tour overview

One day on Cape Town’s Red Bus. Three Cape Town experiences you choose. The Explorer Pass pairs a one-day Classic hop-on hop-off ticket with your choice of three experiences from a selection of 12.

The bus ticket covers all three City Sightseeing routes: the Red City Tour, Blue Mini Peninsula Tour and Purple Constantia Valley Wine Tour so you can switch between the loops during your bus day.

Choose experiences to suit your plans. Head out on a V&A Harbour or Canal Cruise, take a Seal Island Cruise from Hout Bay, or stop for hake and chips at Mariner’s Wharf. Prefer to explore on land? Options include a wine estate tour and tasting at Groot Constantia, wildlife at World of Birds, the Cape Wheel, Cave Golf and the Diamond Museum. There’s also a burger-and-chips option at Hard Rock Cafe, bike rental with Up Cycles and a R100 cocktail voucher at Mojo Market.

Your three choices could take you to the water, the coastline, a wine estate or a family attraction. Check the details and redemption conditions for each option before you travel.

Choose three experiences that make your Cape Town day yours. Book the Discovery Pass and start exploring.
