Places to Visit in Cape Town

 

Cape Town is a fascinating city on the southern tip of South Africa, with Table Mountain dominating the skyline. It has been described as having a Mediterranean climate, a European Culture and an African Mood, which reflects in the art galleries, historical museums, designer shops and trendy cafes that populate the region - making a Cape Town holiday very popular with those visiting South Africa!

Victoria & Alfred Waterfront

The Victoria & Alfred Waterfront seduces you with its classy retail shops, vibrant restaurants and casual bars. We recommend the 5* Cape Grace Luxury Hotel with its stylish accommodation, private quay setting, first class views of Table Mountain that offers an intimate atmosphere whilst being close to action.

Camps Bay

The stunning beaches of Camps Bay and Clifton Beach beckon the sun lovers and the diverse collection of visitors and locals alike provide an all embracing atmosphere, giving Camps Bay its eclectic feel. A personal recommendation would be lunch at the “Azure Restaurant” Twelve Apostles Hotel & Spa, tasting the culinary delights of top young chef “Roberto de Carvalho`s” exciting menu. Finish your day with a truly awe inspiring drive along Chapman’s Peak, regarded as one of the most spectacular marine drives in the world.

Constantia Gardens

The Constantia region is host to a selection of beautiful wine estates such as Buitenverwachting Wine Estate and the Constantia Uitsig that also boasts two of the finest restaurants in South Africa called La Calombe and the Constantia Uitsig Restaurant. Constantia is a stunningly picturesque region and claims host to the Kirstenbosch Botanical Gardens showcasing over 520 hectares of indigenous South African flora and fauna.

Cape Town City Bowl

No trip to Cape Town is complete without taking the revolving cable car to the top of Table Mountain, or a visit to the World Heritage Site of Robben Island that accommodated Mr Nelson Mandela for 25 years. For the traditionalist we recommend a decedent afternoon tea at the grandest hotel in South Africa – The famous 5* Mount Nelson Luxury Hotel.
