The city is strongly geared for tourism. In fact, it was recently voted the most popular tourism destination in the world on TripAdvisor, and it is easy to understand why. Cape Town offers a plethora of cultural, historical, and natural landmarks that attract visitors from all over the world. As the oldest city in Southern Africa, Cape Town is steeped in history. One can visit the Iziko Slave Museum, the old Cape Town Castle or the Noon-Gun on Signal Hill. Ferry trips across to Robben Island are a must, where one can encounter first-hand the prison in which Nelson Mandela was famously held for over two decades. If wining and dining is more your style, then a tour of the nearby winelands is certainly in order. Many of these wine farms date back multiple centuries, and produce world-class wines. Most accommodation will organise these tours for you on request.
The most iconic landmark in Cape Town is undeniably Table Mountain. Views of this earthly wonder can be relished from the majority of Cape Town’s accommodation, and from just about anywhere in the city. There are numerous trails up the mountain, which reward the adventurous with exhilarating vistas all the way to the top. Alternatively, the Table Mountain Cable Car provides a leisurely trip, with spectacular bird’s eye views of the city. From the mountain’s famously flat plateau, one can absorb the entirety of Cape Town, from its white sandy beaches to the bustling city below.
