Cape Town is
rated as one of the most beautiful cities in the world, with Table
Mountain at its back and a glittering bay in front. Add to that the
gorgeous beaches, incredible cuisine, warm African hospitality, intriguing
culture and history, exceptional bio-diversity, whale-watching, walking
and rock-climbing opportunities and the fact that a National Park runs
right through the city, and you'll wonder why you're not there now!
Fascinating as it is, no trip is complete without a few forages outside
the city limits: visit the peninsular, the winelands and take a dip in the
ocean with that apex predator, the Great white shark...
