Cape Town

Table Mountain, wine farms and two oceans meeting

Cape Town is the best-value world-class city on earth — mountains, beaches, wine country and great food, all at UK prices from 2010.

Where to stay

Sea Point or De Waterkant for safe walkability. Camps Bay if you want the beach on your doorstep. Avoid CBD at night and always Uber after dark.

How to get there

Direct overnight flight from London Heathrow on BA or Virgin in 11.5h. CPT to city is £15 by Uber.

Don't miss

Hike Table Mountain via Platteklip Gorge (or cable up, walk down). Drive Chapman's Peak. A full day of wine in Stellenbosch — book a driver.
