Chapmans Peak Drive is an absolute must do drive! We did it 3 times in 1 week. We hired a rental car from Avis in the city and did our coastal drives. Chapmans Peak drive will leave you speechless! …Full review by Tamika S

The drive was exhilarating and beautiful, very scenic. The sun was out it was a beautiful day although pretty windy. I wouldn't recommend the drive if it's overcast or raining.Full review by Explore09851143612

You can hire a scooter in town to travel across Chapmans Peak drive and from there you can travel to Boulders Beach to see the penguins. They are both lovely destinations to visit. You can rent a scooter in Cape Town. Take note that during our rainy season Chapmans Peak drive might be closed from time to time due to possible rock falls. When this road is open it is very safe to travel.
