Back in 1488, Portuguese explorer Bartholomeu Dias rounded the dramatic headland that dominates Africa’s southern coast. Since then, settlers from west and east have been irresistibly drawn to what became known as the Cape of Good Hope. Joining the indigenous Khoikhoi people, together they have shaped what is one of the world’s most dynamic cities, nestling beneath Table Mountain and framed by sparkling seas.
Today, Cape Town’s eclectic, energetic culture is an intrinsic part of its allure. From vibrant African crafts to imposing colonial architecture and a veritable smorgasbord of cuisine, it’s an unmissable destination for urbanites alone. But look around you at the breathtaking landscapes and you soon see that it’s so much more. Watch the sun rise from a craggy clifftop, paddle with penguins or roam the dazzling diversity of the fynbos floral kingdom. Wine connoisseurs meander among vineyards by vintage car, beach lovers are utterly spoilt for choice. There’s an amazing dynamism to the Mother City – seen everywhere from adrenalinefuelled activities such as shark cage diving to thrilling new galleries showcasing leading-edge art.
And then, beneath the enduring gaze of Table Mountain, a stone’s throw from the action, you’ll find Mount Nelson, a Belmond Hotel. Enter the verdant gardens, inhale the scented air – and let your South African escape begin.
