Robben Island is a prison where Nelson Mandela spent 18 years of his 27 years in prison in a tiny cell during the apartheid era. Today, the island is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and a must-visit destination for anyone interested in South African history.

Bo-kaap
  • 30m
Bo-Kaap is located in the heart of the city at the foot of Signal Hill, this vibrant area is home to Cape Town Muslim community, consisting of those who have descended from the "Cape Malays," slaves brought by Dutch settlers from Indonesia, Malaysia, and other African countries. It is well known for its brightly painted, distinctive houses, some of which date back to the 18th century. The area wasn’t initially colourful because all houses were painted white. After the abolition of slavery, residents of Bo-Kaap painted their houses in bright colours as a sign of freedom.
District Six Museum
  • 20m
  • Admission ticket included
In 1966, 70,000 residents of multi-ethnic District Six were displaced when the South African government decided the community was to be a white one. The museum's permanent exhibit is known as Digging Deeper and is devoted on documenting various parts of District Six life through a dynamic visual experience that incorporates multi-media documentary, digital, and sound elements. The exhibit introduces visitors to the area's former residents and tells their life histories through various themes.
Table Mountain

Table Mountain is Cape Town’s centrepiece. The views of the city and the surrounding area from the top are breath-taking. The mountain offers many hikes and magnificent views in all directions. There are different ways of getting to the top. The easiest and quickest option is to take a cable car. The journey up the mountain takes about ten minutes, giving you spectacular views of the mountain below.
