Mother City
Sweeping beaches, towering hilltops, and picturesque vineyards adorn the landscape of Cape Town, dominated by the imposing Table Mountain.Head to Greenmarket Square and The Old Biscuit Millfor plenty of shopping. Visit Maclear's Beacon and Robben Island Museum for their historical value. Venture out of the city with trips to Peregrine Farm Stall (in Grabouw), Stellenbosch (Dorp Street & Annandale Wine Estate) and Hermanus (Funky Vibes & Hemingways of Hermanus). The adventure continues: enjoy the sand and surf at Boulders Beach Penguin Colony, trek along Platteklip Gorge, look for gifts at Shimansky, and take some stellar pictures from Cape Point.
Plan my Cape Town trip by asking Inpirock to come up with tips and suggestions.
