Cape Town is an exciting port city set along the southwest coastline of South Africa, looking out into the South Atlantic Ocean. Located at the foothills of the incredible Table Mountain, it serves as a city gateway to one of South Africa’s most wonderful natural landmarks. Visitors come here to travel up to the top in a cable car and to get the most amazing views of the city below and the ones who have a little more fire in their bellies would rather abseil back down than pay for a return cable car ticket. But whatever you do, the panoramic vistas will be ever so rewarding. Then there’s the draw of the city itself; Cape Town is very much an up and coming destination, one which has already established its footing with 5 star hotels and exclusive resorts, with hipster neighbourhoods and the city’s underground music scene creating an alternative appeal for off the beaten path travellers. And with the harrowing history of the Apartheid, this beautiful port city offers a place that is filled with insight.
