CAPE TOWN
Arrival at the other end of the world late morning, in South Africa’s mother city.
After a French-speaking welcome and collection of your rental vehicle, you’ll set off to discover this historic, cultural city framed by nature on a grand scale.

Over these three days, at your own pace and according to your interests:

The striking cable car ascent of Table Mountain for a panoramic view of Cape Town, the scenic Chapman’s Peak Drive, Simon’s Town, a charming settlement on the Cape’s eastern coast, Boulders Beach and its African penguin colony, the seals of Duiker Island, Kirstenbosch Botanical Gardens (during the austral summer), the Cape Malay quarter, the redeveloped Waterfront docks, Sea Point with its many bars and restaurants, the fashionable beaches of Camps Bay, Clifton and Llandudno, Robben Island, the Cape of Good Hope peninsula and its nature reserve, the fine vineyards of the wine route…

3-night stay in Cape Town at a charming address in the heart of the city.

In season (July to October), we recommend a whale-watching outing in Hermanus, where you can stay 1 or 2 nights as you wish.

Mack and Madi Kids Adventure by MORE Family

L’Afrique est un nouveau monde pour les enfants : remplie de gens colorés, d’attractions merveilleuses et d’animaux curieux, les histoires de contes et de rêves deviennent réalité.
La découvrir ensemble est une pure magie… et permet de renouer des liens entre des êtres chers devant le spectacle que nous offre notre belle planète.
Dans cet esprit, MORE Collection a mis en place le Mack & Madi Kids Adventure, un programme spécialement dédié aux familles.

Après les safaris en famille, le plaisir continue avec les programmes d’expériences sur mesure des différentes propriétés de la marque.
Ceux-ci encouragent les enfants à découvrir et à apprendre, à se créer, à s’exprimer, et à se divertir. Les parents peuvent participer, mais on leur dira probablement : "Les adultes ne sont pas autorisés!". Ici, les jeunes se déconnectent de la sphère numérique alors qu’ils se font de nouveaux amis et s’impliquent davantage dans les nombreuses fascinations du monde naturel.

Sous la conduite d'une équipe de guides sur le terrain et d'assistantes maternelles Mack & Madi, les activités vont de la découverte des animaux aux jeux de piscine en passant par les camps, avec la préparation de biscuits, la peinture et les jeux d'habillage avant de s'installer au cinéma sous les étoiles.
Ce programme est proposé au enfants de 3 à 11 ans mais les enfants/ados sont aussi les bienvenus.
Pour les plus petits (0 à 2 ans), un service de babysitting est à disposition.
