Travel Ideas

Cape Town makes a trip to South Africa worthwhile on its own but only if you climb the looming Table Mountain that gives the city a backdrop that makes people wake up in the morning and say ‘wow’.

And it’s not just Table Mountain that give Cape Town its romantic flavour, you’ve also got vineyards that grow your evening inebriation and stunning beaches cooled by an almost permanent breeze – too bad South Africa has some of the worst white shark attacks in the world.

Although trouble broods in the townships in a country as scarred as South Africa, Cape Town is a great place to party and has it’s own brand of Capetownian jazz that the disinherited blacks evolved much as in the US.

As in a place as stunning as Rio de Janeiro, Cape Town evokes a carefree, flamboyant character in its people and it’s a place to go with the flow and not take life so seriously.
