It's great to visit the most southwestern point on the continent and boulder around a bit and watch the ocean. Otherwise, it's mostly a requisite photo with the sign.

This place will leave you with lot of fond memories! The scene of beach and the mountain is breathtaking! There would be strong cold wind in this month! Carry enough warm clothes to keep yourself safe!!

Who could visit South Africa/Cape Town and not see the Cape of Good Hope?? Absolutely phenomenal viewsthat take your breath away! The ride into the Cape though the reserve is fun, too, watching for wildlife. Just don't feed the baboons!

We went with the bazbus tour, and had one of the greatest days in Cape town ! We had a funny guide, Roger. Who told a lot but never got boring. There's a lunch included, you do a little hike from cape point to cape of good hope, and also a bicycle ride.

Driving and hiking and taking tram to Cape of Good Hope is amazing. The sights, the animals, the strongest winds we've ever experienced,, the clouds traveling at top speeds, the powerful ocean waves slamming against the cape is just so astonishing.

Over a hundred hiking paths rise up from the city, my favourite is from Kirstenbosch Gardens, a pristine botanical garden with indigenous forests on Table Mountain foothills. This is a practical route as there is parking for your vehicle, also certainly most scenic as Kirstenbosch Garden paths are lined with indigenous plants and Fynbos, the footpath you ramble along gives...
