Cape Town is one of those cities that offers a little bit of everything. With Table Mountain forming an incredible backdrop and the Atlantic Ocean wrapping around the peninsula, you can spend one day exploring the city and the next surrounded by mountains, vineyards or beautiful coastline.
There is plenty to experience during a stay in Cape Town. Take the cableway up Table Mountain for views across the city, explore the colourful streets of Bo-Kaap, visit the V&A Waterfront or spend time learning about South Africa’s history. A full-day trip around the Cape Peninsula is also well worth including, with spectacular coastal scenery, Cape Point and the African penguins at Boulders Beach along the way.
Cape Town is also a great base for exploring further afield. The Cape Winelands are an easy addition, with Stellenbosch and Franschhoek offering beautiful wine estates, excellent restaurants and mountain scenery. Travel in the opposite direction and you can continue along the coast towards Hermanus for whale watching, or make Cape Town the starting point of a longer self-drive journey along the Garden Route.
Cape Town is also an incredible destination for golfers, with spectacular courses surrounded by mountains, vineyards and coastal scenery. Golf can easily be incorporated into a Cape Town holiday, whether you would like to enjoy a single round during your stay or build a longer South African golfing journey. Combine a morning on the course with the Winelands, sightseeing, excellent restaurants and a safari, and you have a holiday that works just as well for golfers as it does for non-golfing partners.
Go African Adventures can arrange your Cape Town accommodation, private tours, transfers, car hire and activities, or include Cape Town as part of a complete tailor-made South Africa itinerary.
