AFRICA • SOUTH AFRICA<br />

Discover South Africa<br />

The extraordinary natural beauty and<br />

cultural diversity of South Africa often<br />

surprises visitors. The Cape Provinces in<br />

particular offer rich cultural delights with<br />

their combination of Cape Malay cuisine<br />

and world-class vintages from the vineyards<br />

of the Winelands.<br />

Wildlife abounds, with superb opportunities<br />

for both land- and water-based whale<br />

watching, along with self-drive or guided<br />

‘Big Five’ safaris. For dramatic scenery and<br />

diamond rush history, the Northern Cape<br />

should not be missed, or head up the lesstravelled<br />

west coast to Paternoster and the<br />

Cedarberg mountains to explore ancient<br />

Bushmen rock art.<br />

Cape Town, South Africa<br />

Cosmopolitan, relaxed and with a comfortable<br />

Mediterranean climate, Cape Town is<br />

sandwiched between Table Mountain and the<br />

Atlantic Ocean, giving it one of the world’s most<br />

recognised city locations. It offers a captivating<br />

mix of modern living and old-world charm.<br />

Take a guided walking tour to discover the<br />

city’s street food, antique shops, art galleries<br />

and heritage buildings. Join a boat trip to<br />

UNESCO-listed Robben Island, home to Nelson<br />

Mandela during his time as a political prisoner.<br />

Wander around the vibrant Victoria & Alfred<br />

Waterfront. Other excursions available to our<br />

guests delve deeper into South Africa’s political<br />

past and engage with the local communities.<br />

Affluent Constantia Valley, now within Cape<br />

Town’s suburbs, is South Africa’s oldest winemaking<br />

area, but a little further afield you<br />

will find the undulating valleys and towering<br />

mountains of the Cape Winelands. Popular<br />

destinations within this viticultural epicentre<br />

include the university town of Stellenbosch, the<br />

French Huguenot village of Franschhoek and<br />

the Cape Dutch estates of Paarl. Here, you can<br />

sample celebrated local wines, have lunch at a<br />

vineyard or arrange to picnic beside one of the<br />

pretty streams and lakes. For a whistle-stop<br />

tour of several wineries, choose a scenic cycle<br />

ride or board the hop-on, hop-off Franschhoek<br />

Wine Tram.<br />
