Cape Town in review
Cape Town is one of the most stunning regions of Africa with a unique culture and history shaped from its mixture of settlers, amongst them Dutch, British, French and Indonesian. The spectacular scene of Table Mountain acts as a background to the city itself, majestic and breath-taking. Nearby are the renowned Devils Peak and Signal Hill. The coastline here outlines the Cape Peninsular with its generous amount of rivers and extraordinary landscape.
In Cape Town, the distinctive culture is revealed in its architecture, cuisine, music and dance, take in the delights of the countryside, bask in the sun on its glorious beaches or enjoy the night life of the city. For shoppers there are many stylish and sophisticated shopping malls or for more traditional African items try your hand haggling at the Greenmarket Square Flea Market.
Cape Town setting holds a myriad of wonders, glorious seascapes and panoramic vistas, from the coastal areas to the wine lands. Visit Robben Island to see where Nelson Mandela spent so years of his life or gaze in awe at the ancient rock art in the Karoo Cape Town will be like nowhere else you have ever experienced.
