Cape Town

Above all, the beauty that is Cape Town's natural surroundings is what appeals to the many visitors who make their way to this fascinating South African city. You'll also be impressed by the culture of the city's warm and welcoming people.

Though the troubled history and days of Apartheid have not been forgotten by the people, this ‘ Mother City ' is moving forward and the new Rainbow Nation is leaving a trail of hope. As you enter the heart of the city, you'll come across an array of people; from business men hurrying to their next meeting, to shoppers looking for a great deal.

On one corner you can find someone selling flowers and on the next office workers grabbing a quick lunch. The beautiful backdrop to all this activity consists of majestic modern buildings and older structures that bring back a distant historical time. And above it all, visible from just about everywhere you go in the city is Table Mountain. If you're seeking a journey through history, stroll through Malay Quarter and you must visit old Castle.

When you feel the need for a bite to eat, head over to one of the many restaurants in town. They are sure to satisfy your desire to try something new and delicious. A touch of Europe can be felt in many parts of the town, offering you the chance to live all the thrills Africa has to offer, while having the luxury of world class accommodations.

For those looking for a relaxing day in the sun, head down to the peninsula for a beautiful stroll along the beach. If you're looking for a little more adventure, head up to Table Mountain or Lion's Head. The view is spectacular. Trips out into the harbour are also offered and are an excellent way to explore.

Travel inland and head to Cape Point and drive through the Cape of Good Hope Nature Reserve. This is one of the most beautiful routes in the country.
