Your Itinerary
4 nights in Cape Town
If Cape Town is your first taste of Southern Africa, you’re in for a treat. The cuisine is the undoubted star of the show here, and you’ll spend many hours delighting your appetite at award-winning restaurants such as La Colombe and The Test Kitchen.
For foodie experiences with a difference, you’re invited to a home-hosted lunch with Chef Nicky Gibbs as well as an interactive Bo Kaap cooking session in which you’ll learn all about the colourful Cape Malay cuisine which gives Cape Town its authentic flavour.
Your Cape Town trip would certainly not be complete without experiencing the famous attractions: ride the rotating cable car to the summit of Table Mountain, explore the V&A Waterfront, paddle among penguins and marvel at Cape Point, the dramatic promontory where two oceans meet.
DINING SUGGESTIONS
From fine cuisine at La Colombe and experiential dining at The Test Kitchen, to the home-grown flavours of the Cape in the Bo Kaap.
