Itinerary Lively Cape Town Cape Town is the capital of South Africa and often referred to as the most beautiful city in the country. Table Mountain towers majestically above the capital which sprawls along the coast. The surrounding landscapes are home to vast vineyards and in the city itself, life seems to centre itself around the historic harbour. The colourful Bo-Kaap suburb is a true cultural magnet and the flora and fauna of the Cape Peninsula will have nature lovers captivated by the incredible diversity. 1. Day – Cape Town (Arrival) Individual arrival at the Cape Town International Airport followed by a transfer to the hotel. The rest of the day can be spent as you please, taking a first stroll through the city and surroundings. The night is spent in Cape Town. 2. Day – Cape Town & Table Mountain Today you have a full day to enjoy the wondersome city of Cape Town by yourself. We highly recommend using the Hop-On-Hop-Off bus, which includes all of the highlights in town. Enjoy the old harbour with a view of Table Mountain or the colourful suburb of Bo-Kaap. In the afternoon, you can enjoy a view over the town and the Cape Peninsula with a hike up Table Mountain. A gondola ride back down comes recommended. 3.
