Welcome
to Cape Town and the Western Cape

…..
It’s time to live again

 
Situated
on the south western tip of Africa, Cape Town
and the Western Cape
are among the most beautiful destinations on earth.  Breathtaking mountain scenery, lush vineyards
and long sandy beaches offer unlimited opportunities to relax unwind and
de-stress, while the friendly people, mild climate and rich cultural heritage
make this an unforgettable year-round holiday destination.

 
The
character of our province is defined by its six overarching experiences, which
describe the quintessential Cape Town and Western Cape way of
life.  These are:

·        
Exploring eco &
nature 

·        
Being outdoor active

·        
Discovering culture
& heritage

·        
Savouring gourmet
delights

·        
Revitalising body,
mind & spirit

·        
Enjoying the
cosmopolitan vibe

Cape
Town and the Western Cape is made up of six tourism regions- Cape Town, Cape
Winelands, Cape Garden Route & Klein Karoo, Cape West Coast, Cape Overberg
and Cape Karoo – each with a distinct personality.  The beauty of this province is that every
region offers its own eclectic mix of experiences that will leave you
refreshed, revived and rejuvenated.

Be
it white-water canoeing on the Breede River, kite-surfing off Bloubergstrand beach, or strolling
through Kirstenbosch Gardens at the foot of the majestic Table Mountain,
you can discover Eco & Nature and experience the great outdoors throughout
the Western Cape.  And if it is the history of Culture &
Heritage that piques your interest, you can visit any of the numerous theatres,
museums and monuments, including Nelson Mandela’s former prison cells on Robben
Island; admire historic San rock art on the Cape West Coast; experience the
traditional way of life on the Cape Flats; or enjoy home-grown African culture,
food and music by taking a fascinating township tour.

Gourmands
can awaken their senses with the gastronomic delights that Cape
Town and Western Cape is famous
for, or indulge in an award-winning wine sourced from the Cape Winelands.  Alternatively, allow a skilled therapist to
soothe away the stresses of the day, leaving your Body, Mind & Spirit
refreshed and invigorated to take on tomorrow.

 If
it’s the throbbing heartbeat of viby cosmopolitan culture you are after, our
destination has a little something to tempt everyone who visits these
shores.  Whether it’s nightlife, shopping
or jazz that makes your soul dance, you’ll find it right here, in a province
that is alive with possibility.

 If
you have visited us before and already enjoyed world famous attractions such as
Table Mountain,
Robben Island
and the Victoria
& Alfred Waterfront, as well as returning to them, why not explore
further?  This guide will give you so
many other things to do and reasons to return to Cape Town
and the Western Cape,
time and again.
