About Our 2 Day West Coast Tour

At Makani, we offer one of the most exciting west coast tours South Africa has to offer – on Harley Davidsons! The Cape’s West Coast is famous for its old-world charm, stunning beaches and centuries-old rock art. All along this stretch of coastline, you will find a series of quaint historic towns and fishing villages. This stretch of coast is a seafood mecca with a number of open-air beach restaurants offering freshly caught seafood. The rugged beauty of the Cape West Coast will linger with you.
