Cape Town is located in the southernmost tip of Africa which is one of the most magnificent parts of the world, a paradise full of exquisite scenery and beautiful beaches.

Cape Town is known for its natural beauty, its juxtaposition of mountains and beaches, its art and its diverse people. With its larger-than-life mountain overlooking the City Bowl, harbour, white beaches and Robben Island beyond, this is a tourists’ playground.

There is nowhere quite like Cape Town. It is therefore no surprise that this coastal gem, crowned by the magnificent Table Mountain National Park, has been voted the best city in the world seven years running!
