Meet these unique birds which cannot fly and bray like a donkey during this 5 hour tour. At Boulders Beach situated along False Bay, just outside Simon’s Town, you will come in close contact with African penguins

It would be a fun-filled day allowing you to interact with our very own Boulders Beach African penguin colony. A top class professional driver/guide will share the history of this area as you travel in luxury air-conditioned vehicles stocked with bottled water.
