Table Mountain - Cape Town
Table Mountain

Sir Francis Drake heralded Cape Town as “the Fairest Cape in all the world” and it is undisputedly one of the world’s most beautiful cities. This cosmopolitan city has wide variety of top class hotels and restaurants, a wonderful choice of shopping venues, superb golf courses and with its dramatic scenery and diversity of attractions offer many highlights for your holiday in South Africa.

Cape Town, is one of the few cities in the world that has an instantly recognizable backdrop. Table Mountain dominates every way you look. From the early days of exploration it has been a welcome sight for sailors as here there was fresh water, vegetables and fresh meat

This definately one of the best places I have visited in the whole world, and that is honestly not been a biased South African!!!

    Nice group of eating tips and a nice look at the Fair City in total! I think that picnic basket would go nice up atop the Table too;-\
