CAPE TOWN, SOUTH AFRICA
Located on the southern tip of the African continent, Cape Town is a city with a diverse range of attractions, sights and activities to offer. From lavish and luxurious to back-packing on a budget. Cape Town has something for everyone at any time. From the landmark beaches of Clifton and Camps Bay to the vibrant V&A Waterfront and Cape Town city centre and the award winning wine farms, it is regarded as one of the most beautiful regions in the world. The City is a rare cultural gem, resulting from the amalgamation of Indonesian, French, Dutch, British and German settlers, the local Bushman and indigenous tribes |
