Amongst Cape Town's many attractions, there are some that are particularly worth looking at. With Rolling mountains to historical buildings, Cape Town in and around offers a magical experience.
Kirstenbosch Botanical Gardens
With over 6,000 plant species to enjoy, the Kirstenbosch Gardens are certainly a place for those that enjoy the greener side of life, or who wish to escape from the hustle and bustle of the city for a few hours. Bring a picnic, enjoy the gardens, and just relax and soak in the peaceful atmosphere of one of the oldest botanical gardens in South Africa.

The Constantia Wine Route
The pretty vineyards of Constantia are a mere 20 minutes drive from the centre of Cape Town, making this an ideal lunch venue in a truly stunning setting!
The Constantia Valley has been producing wine for over 300 years, and the many wine estates also offer wine tastings and cellar tours.

Historical Buildings and Museums
There is a vast amount of history and culture in the Cape, and Cape Town is home to many museums and historical sites worthy of a visit during a stay in the Mother City, such as District 6, the Houses of Parliment and the Castle of Good Hope.
Visitors can either take a guided tour to see them all, or go independently.

Robben Island
Robben Island, just off the coast of Cape Town, is famous for its history as a place of exile, banishment, isolation and imprisonment, with its most 'famous' prisoner being Nelson Mandela. A tour to Robben Island includes a short bus tour around the island plus a visit to the former maximum security prison, including the small cell where Nelson Mandela was held for 18 years.

Township Tours
Townships grew very rapidly around every town and city during the apartheid regime, when the black and coloured population were moved out to live in separate areas.
A tour will generally visit 2 or 3 different areas, to give you a better appreciation of the varying degree of housing conditions in the townshipand the way in which these people live.
