Scenically beautiful, Cape Town is a captivating mix of stylish modern and old-world elegance. Dazzling hotels, world-class dining and stunning vistas merge seamlessly with dynamic student suburbs and vibrant nightlife.
Malay and African heritage is evident in the cuisine, traditions and entertainment, while the architecture reveals a strong Dutch, German and English flavour and style.

For the well-heeled, the finest in opera, ballet, drama and music can be appreciated in style.

It is difficult to imagine how anyone could rise above the horror of incarceration to become arguably the most iconic and compassionate leader of our era.
