Cape Town<br />

South Africa’s fantastic beaches are a<br />

mecca for surfers and water-sports enthusiasts,<br />

while its rugged, mountainous interior<br />

offers thrill-seekers a variety of adventure<br />

activities. Naturally, no visit would be<br />

complete without travelling to one of the<br />

country’s 18 national parks, where one<br />

can expect fascinating encounters with<br />

the “Big Five” – the elephant, rhino, lion,<br />

buffalo and leopard. During the winter<br />

months, whale watching is a firm favourite.<br />

Cape Town<br />

The oldest city in South Africa<br />

and known as the “Mother City”.<br />

With Table Mountain at its heart,<br />

Cape Town straddles both the<br />

Atlantic and Indian Oceans. An<br />

ideal base for exploring the mountains,<br />

beaches, historic vineyards<br />

and farms for which the area is<br />

famed. Cape Town is a cosmopolitan<br />

city with fantastic cultural<br />

opportunities and a year-round<br />

pleasant climate.<br />

If I had to name the best thing that<br />

happened to me in South Africa, it<br />

would be studying at Eurocentres.<br />

The teachers and staff don’t just help<br />

you because it is their job. I felt like I<br />

was in a family, every break, every<br />

week, every weekend and all the<br />

times we went on a trip together.<br />

Eurocentres Cape Town is more<br />

than just a school.<br />
