Celebrate Mom’s Day with a 5-Star Cape Town Cruise

May 6, 2026 | Articles

It’s that time of the year again, when we celebrate our Moms and look for something special with which to spoil her. Well, being in the Cape, and especially the Mother City, we all know there are many choices but there is none better than a fabulous boat trip along the Cape Town coastline on a 5-star cruising yacht – the best of which is the Tigger 2 Royale!

What makes Tigger 2 such a great Cape Town boat trip?

Tigger 2 is moored at and departs from the fabulous V&A Waterfront, famous the world over as one of South Africa’s premier visitor hot-spots. This makes her the very popular boat trip that she is, as you can combine your day out at the waterfront, which has so much to choose from, and then top it off with an amazing cruise on this beautiful luxury charter yacht in Cape Town.

The Tigger 2 Royale is a 55-foot luxury Power Catamaran powered by two 530 hp inboard turbocharged diesel engines. It has a top speed of 22 knots and a cruising speed of 12-16 knots.

She is currently the flagship of the charter industry, boasting a beautifully streamlined exterior and a plush, white leather interior. The Tigger 2 Royale has hosted numerous celebrity clients since its launch in 2008 (check out the Celebs gallery).

What can Mom do on a Tigger 2 Cape Town cruise?

Tigger 2 departs daily on various cruises, including a fabulous sunset cruise. You could, for example, treat Mom to lunch at the Waterfront and then take her on our beautiful Cape Town sunset cruise, or you could treat her to lunch or dinner on board.

Mom will enjoy a friendly, highly professional crew, a welcoming glass of bubbly as your party  board, spectacular scenery in plush surroundings, and you may even spot whales, dolphins, seals, or penguins on the cruise.

If you have chosen the Sunset cruise, once you arrive at Clifton fourth beach, or Blaauwberg (passing Robben Island), depending on the weather, Mom can sip on a cocktail from our cash bar, as she marvels at the breathtaking sight of the golden orb of the sun descending into the Atlantic Ocean.

Alternatively, you can choose to wine and dine her aboard this magnificent floating restaurant, pampered by excellent service and savouring the finest cuisine.

Missed Mother’s Day? Book a Cape Town Boat Cruise anytime

Firstly, remember that Mom’s treat doesn’t have to happen on Mother’s Day – it could be any time that you and she can get together to celebrate it. However, also remember that Tigger 2 caters for many types of occasions, including weddings, family celebrations of any kind, like anniversaries, birthdays, etc, and we also have a ‘Special Occasions’ package designed exclusively for couples, where you can hire the entire yacht for the ultimate spoil for your loved one.

On this package, you will be served a candle-lit 3 or 4-course meal (depending if you take the 3 or 4 Hour option) in the bottom lounge, set intimately with rose petals and accompanied by soft, romantic music in the background.

You will be waited on hand and foot by our crew, but your privacy will be ensured. Lunch will be at anchor if the weather is suitable, and Dinner will be at the mooring once the vessel has finished in the sunset .

As you can see, there are many options with Tigger 2 Royale, not to mention corporate boat charter packages too, for some great on-the-water team building in Cape Town!
