INTRODUCING CAPE TOWN
OUR SUGGESTIONS Cape Town is a place where old and new blend together. Warmed by the African sun and dominated by flat-topped Table Mountain, the city is set on a peninsula of sandy beaches, rocky precipices and lush valleys. Firmly positioned on the international map, Cape Town offers the bright city lights of theaters, restaurants and a bustling working waterfront. Photograph the colorful, historic houses in the Malay Quarter. Take a walk amongst the Cape Floral Kingdom displayed in Kirstenbosch Botanical Gardens or catch a boat to Robben Island where Nelson Mandela was incarcerated for so many years. If you’re lucky you’ll be in the city when there is a carnival, where the local CapeMalay people show their love of dance, music, comedy and theatrics. First up, it’s the cable car to the summit of the legendary Table Mountain - weather permitting - and from there, you’ll be able to see to the end of our world, including the City and surrounding layout of this southernmost tip of Africa. Our drive continues past Parliament Buildings, City Hall and the Slave Lodge, and you’ll sense the depth of history via their distinctive architecture.
