About Cape Town:

Cape Town is not only one of South Africa’s most popular holiday spots, but has also become one of the world’s most popular tourism destinations.

The Mother City, as it is fondly known, has a rich, diverse landscape, surrounded by mountains, Fynbos, two different oceans and breathtaking beaches.

Wherever you are in Cape Town, you will always have a view of Cape Town’s famous landmark, Table Mountain. On some days, cloud covers the mountain in the blink of an eye and when this happens, Capetoneans call it the Tablecloth.

There are so many things to do during the day, night, winter or summer, that one could easily stay here for a couple of weeks or more on holiday.

The one thing that makes Cape Town truly unique, other than it’s cosmopolitan atmosphere, the beautiful beaches, the wide variety of restaurants and it’s interesting people is the fact that it is surrounded by natural beauty and near-by Winelands. You could drive from Cape Town in any direction, and 20 minutes later you’ll find yourself in a completely different environment.
