Tap a date to open the full plan for that day — splits by generation, timing notes, and booking links where relevant. Use the filters to narrow the calendar down.
Book the Newlands cricket tickets now. Tickets for the 3 January Test sold out within minutes when they first went on sale, so this is the single most time-sensitive booking on the whole trip — don't leave it for closer to the date.
Four things worth locking down early, given this is peak festive season with a group of ten.
At the peak of the tourism year, with a table of ten, standard online booking engines cap out fast. Email venues directly to hold the space.
December and January bring high winds to the Cape. If the mountain is clear and calm on any given morning, that's the day — regardless of what the itinerary says.
Chapman's Peak and busy beach parking are hard with a group this size. A rented people-mover or a private shuttle for the big city and Cape Point days removes the parking stress entirely.
The summer sun is harsh and the Atlantic at Hout Bay runs cold (10–14°C). Sunblock for the 5-year-old and the elders, and save ocean swimming for the warmer False Bay tidal pools at Dalebrook on 2 January.
What's locked in, what's still open, and the poll going out to the group.
A people-mover for all 10 will be rented for the group; ad-hoc trips in between will run on Uber.
AZ has identified the vehicle — an 11-seater Toyota Quantum.
A block of time still needs to be set aside for shopping — stocking the villa with snack foods and drinks.
