From a history standpoint it was really informative as our guide gave us to beginning to end history of South Africa. He pointed out every city that we passed and gave some history of each place as well as how apartheid affected South Africans. The penguins were the last stop on the tour and it was one of the best parts. You have to pay for the penguins entrance as well as one other. Overall this your was pretty good. I don’t know if the wine tour was a part of the tour but our guide took us there. I did feel rushed though as I did for many other parts of the tour as he told us that he just had so much for us to see and we just had to keep time. We didn’t see Seal Island or one other stop but the lighthouse was cool and so were the views.

Cape Town, South Africa's capital, is a port city, meaning one of the best ways to sightsee its landmarks and views is via a cruise.
