In 2014, The New York Times and The Telegraph named Cape Town ‘the world’s best place to visit,’ and with good reason! As the oldest settlement in South Africa, Cape Town served as a supply station for Dutch East India Company ships in the late 1600s. Now the legislative capital of South Africa, and rated the ‘World Design Capital’ in 2014, this beautiful, yet bustling city offers an eclectic blend of old and new.

Watch as Cape Town's glamorous city life lights up modern high risers, as well as meticulously preserved buildings of the past, most of which boast with Cape Dutch, Edwardian or Victorian architecture. The streets are scattered with street vendors and alive with a jam-packed calendar of cultural events, the Bo-Kaap lined with grand mosques and colourful abodes, exhilarated by the strong Islamic ambiance, and the pristine Blue Flag beaches stretch their soft sands along the coast, where beachfront cafés invite you to spend a day in the sun.

A rich historical centre, yet a modern creative capital, this one-of-a-kind city is also a natural splendour. Here, hundreds of African Penguins frolic in the waters of Boulders Beach and Fynbos naturally covers the slopes of the Kirstenbosch National Botanical Garden – all to the backdrop of the majestic Table Mountain, rated as one of the’ 7 natural wonders of the world.’ Add a variety of world-class wine farms to the list, and you are welcomed to the Mother City of South Africa.
