Explore Cape Town From A Sidecar

If you are an avid sightseer, this might be just the thing for you. Cape Sidecar Adventures makes exploring the Cape an especially fun and adventurous activity.

Cape Sidecar Adventures boasts a fleet of sidecars, available for team building, corporate events, weddings, anniversaries, tour visits and even unique children’s parties.

The vintage World War II motorbike sidecars provide chauffeured tours and transfers around the city of Cape Town, the Cape Peninsula and the Cape Winelands. A great, safe way to explore the Cape without the worries of crowds and confined spaces.

Brody the Dog

A member of the crew is Brody, the dog. He is well trained, wears his buff and goggles and sits perfectly upright in his own sidecar. Brody is a graduate of the DARG (Domestic Animal Rescue Group) rescue shelter based in Hout Bay. He has become more famous than the sidecars. He mostly travels with his dad, Tim, and can be booked for a ride in exchange for a handful of biltong.

“Every visitor is a potential investor. The Cape Convention Bureau looks forward to hosting delegates from around the globe – providing us with the opportunity to showcase the capabilities of our local industries spanning a wide range of sectors,” said Provincial Minister of Finance and Economic Opportunities in the Western Cape, Mireille Wenger.

Business events are intrinsically linked to leisure tourism – creating a positive knock-on effect for local hotels, restaurants, and attractions. The economic spin-offs from events in the Western Cape generate a ripple effect of job creation during and after events, and these visitors spend their money locally and have a positive impact on the local economy. It also enriches knowledge in hosting and creates opportunities for some of the people working on the events to initiate, and grow, their own businesses.
