10. Las Vegas at Night | USA

9. Cape Point | Cape Town | Tour of South Africa
Take a scenic ride through the magnificent Cape Point and its National Park reserve to the Cape of Good Hope, a headland on the Atlantic coast of the Cape Peninsula in South Africa, a key tourist attraction. On False Bay, we start outside the 200-year-old historic naval village of Simons Town, South Africa's most significant maritime base and harbor. The undulating ride is home to many bird species, including African Penguins, ostrich, zebra, and baboons. Watch out for ostriches near the end!
