Cape Town Information

Cape Town could win you over on looks alone. Set on golden beaches and dramatic cliffs, this South African city does well to turn its spectacular setting into much-loved tourist attractions: there’s the Cape of Good Hope Nature Reserve, penguin-friendly beaches, and 15,000 acres of wilderness (Table Mountain) smack-dab in the middle of the city. Despite a few lingering signs of colonialism, like shantytowns and Rodden Prison—where Nelson Mandela’s cell exists—this rising star’s mood is undeniably upbeat.
