Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need a licence to rent?

What’s included?
Helmet, jacket and unlimited kilometres on rentals; for chauffeured tours a pro rider, helmet and jacket.

Can you tailor a tour?
Yes—half-day to multi-day itineraries, small groups to incentives up to 60 people.
What happens if the wind or weather turns bad on the day?
We watch the forecast (the Cape Doctor can howl). If conditions aren’t safe or enjoyable, we’ll reschedule at no charge or help you switch to a shorter/alternative route. If you can’t reschedule, talk to us—fair refunds/credits apply on a case-by-case basis.
Do you offer hotel pickup and drop-off?
Yes. City Bowl, Waterfront, Camps Bay, Hout Bay, Constantia are covered; other areas on request. We’ll confirm pickup time windows and any surcharges when you enquire or book.
Can children ride as pillions?
We prioritise safety. As a guideline, pillions should be tall enough to place both feet on the pegs and confident holding on. We recommend ~10+ years; final discretion rests with your guide/rider on the day.
What should I wear—and what gear do you provide?
Wear long pants, closed shoes/boots, and a light jacket (layers are best). We provide DOT/ECE helmets and riding jackets (S–XXL) and have gloves available. Hygiene liners are offered for helmets.
I’m new to left-hand traffic—can I get a practice session?
Absolutely. Book a 10–15 min acclimatisation loop around Hout Bay with a quick controls & safety briefing before your ride. If you prefer, choose a chauffeured tour and enjoy the views while our pro rides.
Experience Cape Town from the Back of a Harley-Davidson®
Not everyone wants to ride a motorcycle themselves, but that doesn’t mean you should miss the experience of exploring Cape Town on a Harley-Davidson®. Our chauffeured Harley tours allow you to relax as a passenger while an experienced rider takes you along some of the most spectacular roads in South Africa. Departing from Hout Bay, these tours provide quick access to Chapman’s Peak Drive, the Cape Peninsula, Cape Point, the Cape Winelands and many of the Western Cape’s most scenic routes.
Whether you are celebrating a birthday, anniversary, honeymoon or simply looking for an unforgettable day in Cape Town, a chauffeured Harley experience offers a unique way to see the region. No motorcycle licence or riding experience is required. Simply enjoy the scenery while your professional rider handles the route, traffic and road conditions.
Scenic Harley Tours Designed Around You
Each Harley tour can be adapted to your available time and interests. Half-day rides are perfect for exploring Chapman’s Peak Drive, Hout Bay, Noordhoek and the Cape Peninsula, while full-day experiences allow time to continue towards Cape Point, Boulders Beach, Stellenbosch, Franschhoek or Hermanus. Along the way there are plenty of opportunities to stop for photographs, refreshments and spectacular viewpoints.
Unlike traditional sightseeing tours, travelling on a Harley-Davidson creates a far more personal connection with the landscape. The open road, fresh sea air and panoramic coastal views combine to create an experience that is both exciting and relaxing.

What Our Customers Say
Amakhaya Lodge Hout Bay
11 Nooitgedacht Dr, Hout Bay, Cape Town
- A hidden gem in Hout Bay – Perfection in Every Detail! Amakhaya Lodge Hout Bay
Amakyhaya Lodge delivered an unforgettable stay from start to finish. The rooms were immaculate— not a speck out of place — and every little detail had been … More thoughtfully considered. From the plush bathrobe and quality toiletries to the cotton wool and other touches that truly made the space feel luxurious and complete, nothing was overlooked.
The mini bar was fully stocked with delightful treats, a welcome surprise that added to the feeling of indulgence. The bed? Pure bliss — like sleeping on a cloud. But what stole my breath was the view from my balcony: sweeping vistas of Lion’s Head and the shimmering bay below, a postcard come to life.
The dining experience was just as memorable. Every meal was a sensory delight, bursting with flavor and beautifully presented. Amakyhaya has mastered the balance of comfort, elegance, and heart. I left feeling truly cared for and already planning my return.
Highly recommended to anyone seeking serenity with a touch of luxury in one of Cape Town’s most scenic corners. - The hosts were very welcoming. The rooms exceeded my expectations. Will definitely visit again
- The family at Amakhaya Lodge is so lovely! ..the room we had was so amazing, everything on point and clean!! I highly recommend them, definitely I would love to come back again anytime soon!!
