Top things to do in Cape Town

Cape Town is a city of contrasts. It’s where mountains meet the sea, and urban vibes meet untamed wilderness. One minute you’re sipping wine in Constantia, the next you’re climbing Table Mountain or spotting penguins on the beach.

Bold, beautiful, and full of life — what you do during your trip should feel just as intentional as where you go. We cut through the noise and filtered out the fluff.
