Chapman's Peak Drive (South) - Cape Town, South Africa

A late-afternoon drive from Camps Bay to Noordhoek (North to South) along Chapman's Peak Drive - one of the most scenic drives in the world. If you visit the Western Cape area, this drive is a must! Plan on at least 90 minutes so that you have time to make use of the many turn-offs to take in the beautiful scenery. The toll portion starts just south of Hout Bay and cost (as of June 2013) R33.00 - about $3.50 - each way.
I only wish I could have waited an hour later, but it was autumn and a storm was approaching! Enjoy in HD when possible.

Assuming if I was a tourist, and refused to pay the R33 toll, what is the worst case scenario ?? Mind you I drove from Durban to Cape Town in 1979 on my new Honda XB750KZ and spent four glorious weeks there. Was sorry to leave, but had to go back to work. Did this drive in both directions. Would have moved to CT if it were not for family not wanting to leave Durban

[@ChrisSheppVids]

I suppose you just wouldn't be allowed to pass through the toll barrier? My personal opinion is that the views are definitely worth the toll - video simply can't do it justice.

[@steinwaygrande3971]

After seeing the cost , its well worth it seeing even if it was some 30 + years ago - shot myself in the foot with my comment before waiting to see the end. Hopefully we will be able to drive back to C T for another holiday.
