South Africa is an exceptionally beautiful country filled with beautiful rugged landscapes, warm, diverse people and a richness in its fauna and flora. From the beautiful mountain views of Table Mountain in the Cape and the Drakensberg Mountains in KwaZulu-Natal and the Eastern Cape; to the dry desert of the Kalahari and Karoo; and the pristine coastlines of the Garden Route and Wild Coast. South Africa is a country with attractions worth exploring because of its diversity and culture.

Cape Town is famous for a variety of attractions that stretch from the famous Table Mountain all the way down to the sea - with a rich history, vibrant culture, pearly white beaches, charming fishing villages, colourful floral reserves and numerous adventure activities.

The city is known for its restaurants, which serve delicious fresh seafood, award-winning wines and the Cape’s own distinctive Malay-inspired cuisine.


The city is steeped in history. Highlights include a trip to Robben Island, where Nelson Mandela was imprisoned for much of his life; the Castle of Good Hope, built by the early Dutch settlers and expertly restored; and the historic homestead of Constantia.


The beautiful surrounds of the Victoria and Alfred Waterfront, along with the historic streets of the city centre and the many outdoor markets, offer visitors a varied and relaxed shopping environment. As host of the annual Cape Town Jazz Festival, music is a big part of Cape Town’s entertainment scene.


Beaches, one of Cape Town’s attractions, draw sun-seekers and sporting enthusiasts alike. You’ll find clean white sand and sparkling (if somewhat chilly) water as well as activities such as sailing, fishing, whale watching, wind-surfing and kite-boarding.
