Destination Cape Town
Table Mountain at Dusk.![]()
Cape Town, Southern Africa’s jewel in the crown is the most stunningly beautiful and visited city in this part of the world.
Standing at its heart the awe inspiring Table Mountain divides the city into distinctive areas. There are residential areas, walking routes, public gardens and the famous Cape Vineyards all within close proximity.
The view from the top of Table Mountain will give the visitor a superb mixture of different vistas. Here you can look down into the city centre and docks and on the lower slopes there are views of forested slopes and the famous Cape Vineyards and Botanical Gardens.
The view across to the East will give the visitor a glimpse of the poorer side of Cape Town with a sprawl of Townships and coloured ghettos dotting the landscape.
Cape Town offers a range of exciting pursuits for the Adventure enthusiast offering some of the worlds best windsurfing, excellent mountain biking trails and for the really brave why not paraglide off “Lions Head“down to the Clifton beach below.
The city itself contains a huge diversity of architectural buildings which stem from its rich colonial history. The visitor will find buildings of Cape Dutch style with a mixture of English Victorian and Georgian influences as well as a smattering of French and even Muslim designs within its confines.
Whatever your plans for travel in the future, Cape Town should be at or near the top of your destination plans!
