V&A Waterfront: VICTORIA & ALFRED...
  • Tip Rating:
  • It is a collection of speciality shops and restaurants, and the entire complex seems to double in size every few years. There are institutions such as the Hard Rock Cafe and Planet Hollywood here, with plans for more similar international companies to come in.

    Everything is more expensive here, and cheaper wares can be found by going elsewhere.

    If you do have spare funds available, there are actually a few good things to see at the V&A Waterfront. The whole thing is actually built within the Cape Town Harbour, which is a fully functional and busy international port. If you want to see what goes on in a harbour, this is a good place to go.

    The name is taken from two separate basins of the docks, which are named for Queen Victoria and her son Alfred (as opposed to her husband, Albert).
