Cape Town cultural tours
Cape Town, South Africa's 'Mother City', dominated by the soaring
Table Mountain and surrounded by the wild Atlantic Ocean, has one
of the most beautiful backdrops in the world.
A mountainous spine stretches between two seaboards and is edged
by rugged coastlines and dramatic beaches.
The city itself is diverse, with grand colonial buildings and
beautiful public gardens standing cheek to cheek with tin shacks
and unfinished highways. Atmospheric suburbs frame the lower slopes
of the mountain, while the Cape Flats lie further out, their sprawling
townships a lasting testimony to the apartheid era.
Experience Cape Town's diverse cultures
Cape Town population is the most cosmopolitan in the country, offering
a unique mix of cultures that drives the pulse of the city.
A comparatively small black population (25%) is mixed with the
dominant “Cape Coloured” population (50%), and interspersed
with the white descendents of Dutch and British settlers (25%).
It would take months to fully appreciate all that Cape Town has
to offer, but in just a few days you can discover why this is a
place that visitors return to time and time again.
