  20. Penguin Volony inCape Town is much better ?As ai said before -The ocean can be tough and it’s very windy —trip can be cancelled at a moments notice.I am originally from a port Elizabeth.Years ago you could swim at the apenguin beach and the penguins would poop on you as you sun tanned on the beach .Boulders Beavh in Cale Town is beautiful.

  22. Do another drive to Addo Elephant Park on your own.Go thru dome dicey areas and driving on the other side of the road..It is a over an hour drive and cabs are Notto be trusted! penguin sight depends on the western as it’s a very windy town and you have to make reservations way in advance that can be cancelled only that be cancelled at a moments notice. znopefully there will be some yours st the dock. I am originally from Port Elizabeth now living in the USA.Do Be.I Eve me I know these are all true facts!
