Cape Town Holidays
Voted the best city in the world many times, Cape Town is a great spot for winter sun and is sure to take your breath away.
Its picture-perfect locations is stylish, colourful and exciting with brightly painted houses, world-class restaurants and eclectic African culture. Lovingly known as the Mother City, Cape Town is famous for its epic views and jaw-dropping landscapes; take a cable car to the top of Table Mountain for the best seat in the house and vistas to remember forever.
Cape Town is the perfect place to start or finish any South African adventure. Combine your stay with a self-drive along the Garden Route, or safari in nearby Kruger National Park searching for the Big Five. We also recommend taking the majestic Blue Train or Rovos Rail cross country to enjoy the stunning scenery while being treated like royalty. The possibilities in Cape Town are endless.
