    Overview

    This city tour is ideal for getting a first impression of the city of Cape Town. On foot and by car, we explore all the districts worth seeing and end the day at the famous harbor mile "V&A Waterfront". If the weather is good, we will first take the gondola up Table Mountain and enjoy the fantastic view of the city. Alternatively, we can visit Signal Hill, which is also ideal for a good view of the city and an introduction to the city's history. We then go to the colorful Cape Malay district "Bo-Kaap", where we try Cape Malay specialties and take Instagram-worthy photos. We then stroll through the Company's Garden on foot, marvel at the old parliament buildings, take a look at St. George's Cathedral and grab souvenir bargains on Greenmarket Square. We drive to the V&A Waterfront, where we end the tour (optional) with a short, entertaining harbor tour.
