Customizable Itinerary
Day 1
Cape Town – An Exquisite Welcome to Southern Africa
The rugged vertiginous slopes of Table Mountain dominate Cape Town, standing above the city like a benign giant casting spells of color. You see it immediately, the private transfer from airport to hotel sweeping along the base of the great icon. Your hotel is sandwiched between the vertical slopes and the ocean, the panorama vastly different dependent on which way you look. Wherever you are in Cape Town, there's at least one of these views, either the imposing mountain or the tumbling Atlantic waves. Your hotel offers a free taxi service to destinations within the city, allowing you to explore at leisure as the African adventure begins.
