The Cape Town International Convention Centre is located on Lower Long Street, opposite the Westin Hotel. Every year, this center hosts international events. It is one of the top 10 convention centers in Africa. In Long Street, City Sightseeing Cape Town’s office is located at bus stop number 5. In addition to many bookstores and ethnic restaurants, Long Street is also famous as a bohemian hangout.

To explore Table Mountain’s unique nature, we travel by cable car to the top. The Table Mountain Guided Tour is followed by a drop-off at your accommodation in Cape Town City Centre. The Table Mountain cable car entry tickets are included in this tour. In order to avoid possible ticketing queue delays, we should pre-purchase your Table Mountain tickets ahead of time.

Beaches at bus stop number 8, the opulent Camps Bay beachfront. Bring along your bathing suit, a beach umbrella, and a beach lounger and enjoy the African sun (but don’t forget a hat, sunscreen, and sunglasses). Mountain views of the 12 Apostles and Lions Head are spectacular.

The President Hotel is located within a five-minute walk of the bus stop number 9 in Bantry Bay. The next stop is the Sea Point Promenade, where you can stroll along the promenade and admire the beauty of the Atlantic Ocean. In case you don’t feel like swimming in the ocean, you can cool off in Sea Point Pavilion’s three swimming pools. We recommend spending two hours here. We will reach number 11 before reaching the Winchester Mansions Hotel. A longstanding community center, the 4-star hotel is one of Sea Point’s best hotels. Located at Mouille Point, The Creamery serves one of the best ice creams in Cape Town. Located near the Cape Town Stadium, the Urban Park is in Green Point. There is a playground and picnic spots in the park, making it a great place for families and couples.
