A Cape Town day trip is designed for those tourists that are spending a few days in the city. Cape Town is blessed with an abundance of activities which are just too many to list. You can use the day to see the entire city with all its wonderful places of interest or go up the mountain and be captivated by the immense beauty on Table Mountain.
You can plan your own trip or leave it to reputable tour companies to do it for you. Whatever you decide you can't go wrong with a day trip. The city may be small but there is a lot to do and see.
The Company Gardens located at the foot of Table Mountain and the Houses of Parliament alongside it make for a very attractive start to any day trip. Then there are the museums and cultural centres like the castle where tourists can visit to experience the dark dungeons.
The next part of your day trip can be spent riding up the cable car to the top of Table Mountain. A number of years ago the old cars were replaced with state of the art cable cars which get to the upper cable station quicker than their predecessors and have a rotating podium. Rising over 1 000 metres above the city, Table Mountain allows remarkable views of the city below as well as the beaches to the west. If walking and hiking is your thing then you get to the peak of the mountain unassisted via one of the many trails that lead to the top.
With facilities, amenities, and places of interest all within a stone's throw; Cape Town is the ideal holiday spot. Travellers can achieve a lot very quickly. Even with limited time visitors can easily take in so many of the sights and sounds of Cape Town. There are few places on earth that you can go from one thousand metres above a city to a grandiose wine farm within an hour.
From shark cage diving to abseiling, paragliding, kite surfing and mountain biking, Cape Town has it all. If that sounds like too much for you then head out to the tranquil wine farms with their award winning vintages.
