• Robben Island Museum - Located in Table Bay, Cape Town, Robben Island was named by the Dutch and later referred to as Seal Island by the British. Historically, it served as an animal quarantine station, a leper colony, and a place for isolating political prisoners. Remarkably, three former inmates, Nelson Mandela, Kgalema Motlanthe, and Jacob Zuma, have become Presidents of South Africa. In 1999, Robben Island was designated a UNESCO World Heritage site and now offers daily tours. These tours commence at the Nelson Mandela Gateway at the V&A Waterfront.

After being picked up from your Cape Town hotel, you will be transported to the V&A Waterfront to board the Robben Island Ferry. This ferry takes you to the renowned site where Nelson Mandela was imprisoned for 18 of his 27 years. Often referred to as “South Africa’s Alcatraz,” the island was a leper colony and a place of isolation, banishment, and imprisonment. It stands as a poignant reminder of the harsh conditions endured in the fight for freedom from apartheid. The tour, led by former prison warders or ex-prisoners, is both historical and educational. After the tour, you will return to the Waterfront by ferry.

• Cape Town - Cape Town boasts a variety of restaurants offering delectable international and traditional African cuisine from countries like South Africa, Zimbabwe, Mozambique, Angola, Congo, and Ethiopia. A visit to one of these establishments will surely be a delightful experience. You can also opt to try the renowned South African braai (barbecue) and Malay curry dishes that Cape Town is famous for.

• Table Mountain - Following lunch, you will head to Table Mountain, recently voted one of the 7 natural wonders of the world. A cable car ride, lasting three minutes, will take you to the summit, offering breathtaking views as it rotates on its ascent. From the top, enjoy the stunning vistas of the Mother City and the Atlantic seaboard with its world-class beaches. After spending time at the summit, you will descend via the cable car to the base station.
