EXPLORE THE CAPE FROM THE SADDLE
'The roads you ride a Harley-Davidson®, in South Africa are more than ribbons of tar. They are winding paths of unforgettable experiences.'
The unspoiled magnitude of its nature, its wildlife, excellent road conditions and affordability for overseas visitors, make South Africa the world's fastest growing tourist destination. Especially the splendor of the Western Cape, with its 10-months riding season, attracts many Harley owners from all over the world. For this Harley-Davidson Cape Town - the only factory Authorized Rental Outlet on the continent of Africa - operates a rental fleet of eleven super comfortable Twin Cam motorcycles as well as one Sportster. Every season our fleet is completely replaced by new motorcycles to ensure our clientele the optimal Harley-Davidson Riding Experience. All our rental motorcycles are equipped with passenger seat and back rest, luggage rack and saddlebags or panniers. Most have a detachable windscreen and highway pegs as well.
A choice of self-guided tours takes you through the Cape Wine Lands, over winding mountain passes, to green hills and semi-deserts, exploring new horizons. From the saddle of your bike you can observe the baboons, ostriches, penguins, seals, dolphins and whales in their natural habitat. Whilst visiting a game reserve, open Land Rovers will take you to see the Big Five: elephants, rhinos, buffalos, leopards and lions.
The historic Route 62 connects the Mother City (Cape Town) with Port Elizabeth. Like the US Route 66, it was for many years in use for settlers heading east. But since ox wagons were replaced by cars and many Harleys, the dirt road has been transformed into a good two lane tar road, that still breathes the vibe of bygone eras. The magnificent scenery varies from the world renowned Robertson Winelands and winding road trough the spectacular Koggemans Canyon to the semi-desert of the Klein Karoo. After a dip in the hot springs of the picturesque settlers town of Montagu a mere three hours ride takes you to Oudtshoorn, the ostrich capital of the world. Here you can swap the saddle of your Harley for quite a different riding experience at the back of an ostrich, visit a crocodile farm and the cheetah and lion breeding station. Proceed your tour through the high rising mountains of the Meiringspoort to the Addo National Elephant Park to admire the Big Five in their natural habitat.
