V& A Waterfront

The V&A Waterfront is South Africa’s most visited destination, attracting millions of visitors every year – and for good reason. Whether you’re looking to go shopping, dine at top restaurants, party at local nightspots, visit tourist attractions and museums or investigate the city’s historic harbour, you’ll find it all here.

Table Mountain

Table Mountain might be one of the New 7 Wonders of Nature, but its wonders are not new to Capetonians, who have been enjoying the majestic mountain’s unique beauty for centuries. Likewise, there aren’t many visitors to the city who don’t get to the top, whether on foot or on the Cableway.

A Cultural day

Cape Town is a city bursting at the seams with colour, creativity and humour. You only need walk past the flower sellers of Adderley Street to get a taste of the zest for life that permeates the city. The Cape Minstrel Carnival, affectionately known as Cape Town’s answer to the Mardi Gras, is another wonderful example of the City’s creative spirit.

Nature and Environment Activities

Cape Town has an abundance of fauna and flora in close proximity to its urban areas. As a pioneering city, the Mother City asks that visitors to these attractions act responsibly. Concerns about global warming and the destruction of the environment have created a need for responsible tourism to ensure that travel remains economically, socially and environmentally sustainable.

Historical Cape Town

Cape Town has a history of many intertwining threads and layers both shady and bright, from the city’s cosmopolitan trade roots under Dutch, and then British, rule, followed by the troubled history of the apartheid years.

Beyond Cape Town: Discover the Winelands, West Coast and Garden Route

It’s hard to leave the sights and beaches of our beautiful city. Nevertheless a trip to the spectacular Winelands for a day or two is not to be missed, with at least six wine routes besides the historical towns of Stellenbosch, Franschhoek and Paarl to explore.
