What TOOK me so long! Why didn't I know what a magnificent place this was! We visited Cape Town both before and after a safari trip to Botswana, and had a wonderful time exploring the Western Cape as much as possible in approximately 7-8 days. The scenery was more than enough to excite us, the people were simply marvelous as well. I'll be adding to this page in the next few weeks. There are LOTS of photos and experiences to post.
We met up with some Internet friends for a daytrip that covered MUCH of the Cape: Daytrip ...there are great pictures of our day that I couldn't capture in total as my camera battery died about 6PM!)
To see the rest of our trip (the Botswana safari) see my Botswana travel page: Botswana Safari
- Pros:Weather, People, Food and Wine, Flora and Fauna!
- Cons:12-hour flight from London -- after 7 from the US!
- In a nutshell:South Africa is Simply Amazing

Diane, this page makes me want to see Cape Town soon: penguins, red wine and those wonderful hotel tips you have - excellent page, indeed!!! - well, I just had to return to your page now! For a good reason - but you know that!
Love the cute penguins!!
Great tips! Hope your move is going smoothly!! *hugs*
You are right, the only con is the flight! We really (really) liked this country. Like you we are used to driving on the other side of the road but it was not a problem. Enjoy
Lovely pages good tips nice pics. I see, another one has fallen in love with the mighty mother city at the Cape. I know it's a place to die for...can't get my mind off it.
Justice well done to a great city. I prefer the Penquin colony at Bettiesbay to Boulders. Of course the wine routes are just fantastic. Thanks for being an ambassador for my city
Kingklip is fabs, snoek, smoked or braaied better still ! did you enjoy the wines > ;-)))
Great pages. Cape Town is very high on my must see list.
Great Simons Town photo!
Great pages on another of my favourite cities. Got to be one of the most spectacular in the world. Glad you had a great time here also.
