CAPE TOWN

Cape Town, the Mother City of South Africa, is the oldest city in South Africa, founded in 1652. There is no shortage of things to do in Cape Town; whether you are an explorer, nature lover, adrenaline junkie, food (or wine) connoisseur or historian you will find lots to do.

If you love to explore then you will enjoy navigating the city to discover the quirks and well-known spots of Cape Town. From the city, you can venture to Lion’s Head – Lion’s Head peaks at 669 metres (2,195ft) above sea level, it takes around 1 hour to hike to the top and take in the awe-inspiring views.

For the nature lovers, there is The Cape Floral Kingdom, which spans 90 000sq km, is the smallest and richest recognised floral area on the planet and was declared a world heritage site by UNESCO’s committee. 

If you are an adrenaline junkie, once you reach the peak of Lion’s Head you can paraglide and glide over Camp’s Bay. If you want to take to the skies, even more, you can skydive and observe a drop-zone unlike any other on earth – this should be on every adrenaline seeker’s bucket list.
