Cape Town Destinations

Cape Town has that enticing mix of modern vibrancy, fascinating history and exceptional natural beauty all rubbing shoulders under the magic of the iconic Table Mountain. Cape Malay, centuries old dutch and British architecture, sits cheek-by-jowl with cutting edge 21st century loft apartments and sleek modern skycrappers. Sit a while in this, South Africa's "Mother City", and enjoy the timeless buzz and busle of flowers and craft markets.

A short ride away, is legendary Robben Island and the prison cell of the "world loved and admired" former President of South Africa, Neslon Mandela. From whale watching at Hermanus, ambling through the botanical gardens of Kirsternbosch, to wine testing at any of the many legendary wine estates, there is no doubt Cape Town is a vast kaleidoscope of experiences.

If cities were romances, Cape Town would be the love-at-first-sight kind: That first glimpse of Table Mountain from the sky, presiding over a gently curving coastline lapped by brilliant blue waters, is an image that leaves you instantly hooked. But there’s plenty to pull you in long after landing, from its chic hotels, world-class restaurants, and thriving art scene, to its dazzling cultural diversity and rich, if complex, history. Each day in the Mother City will see you unearthing new details that will have you falling in love all over again. Get the best Cape Town Travel Guide today!
