Depart
from Cape Town’s Victoria & Alfred Waterfront by ferry for
a 25-minute trip across Table Bay to Robben (Seal) Island.
This
World Heritage Site and South Africa’s most revered national
monument was a prison for some 450 years - for convicts, slaves, exiled
Eastern princes, lepers, the insane and those punished for resisting
oppressive rule - among them, Nelson Mandela.
The
tour, led by guides (some of whom were once inmates) includes a visit
to the Prison Block and the infamous Limestone Quarry, where prisoners
once toiled, as well as a drive around the island with it breathtaking
views across the bay.
Return
to the Victoria & Alfred Waterfront where you are met by our guide
for a trip along the picturesque Atlantic Seaboard, playground of
wealthy Capetonians, and a stop for lunch at a seafood restaurant
along the way.
Continue
past sunny Camps Bay over Kloof Nek to the Lower Cableway Station
to board the revolving cable car for a 5-minute ride to the top of
Table Mountain. 1036 meters above sea level, this sandstone massif
offers staggering bird’s-eye views of the city, the bay and
the Peninsula (as far as Cape Point on a clear day) as you explore
its summit. (This may be done in reverse depending on weather conditions.)
