Top Cape Town Attractions

It is not an easy question to answer as not only does the weather play a role, but your mood on the day also.
The time of the year also influences what I'll be doing or where I'll be going.

I usually browse for a the first half of the visit whereafter I find a spot to do some people-watching. :-)

Cape Point is another favourite. The drive to Cape Point alone makes this a worthwhile way to spend a day.

But if you have to force me to make a choice, it will probably be the Cape Winelands. And it is not just about the wine, there is just sooooo.. much to see and do!

I am sure that you will find something that will interest you on the list of Cape Town Attractions below.

Enjoy!!!
