9 days in Cape Town Itinerary

Sweeping beaches, towering hilltops, and picturesque vineyards adorn the landscape of Cape Town, dominated by the imposing Table Mountain.

Take a break from the city and head to Boulders Beach Penguin Colony and Robben Island Museum. Do some cultural sightseeing at District Six Museum and Groot Constantia. Explore Cape Town's surroundings by going to Art @ Almenkerk (in Grabouw), Franschhoek (Franschhoek Motor Museum & First South African Perfume Museum) and Stellenbosch (Dyman Gallery & The Stellenbosch Village Museum). There's still lots to do: browse the eclectic array of goods at Greenmarket Square, take some stellar pictures from Cape Point, take your sightseeing to a higher altitude at Signal Hill, and kick back and relax at Llandudno Beach.
