Why Travelers Love This
Overview
On this tour, we will educate travelers about Jan van Riebeeck Statues as we drive past them. We will discuss the historic background while depending on which direction we are driving, Cape Town train station, adjoining Strand Street, which takes us to Cape Town's first and oldest building, the Castle of Good Hope, Grand Parade, and City Hall, where we will get off and take some pictures while sharing the history and memoirs of these prestigious structures. After there, we'll drive up Buitenkant Street to see the old Central Method Church, which eventually became the District Six Museum. From there, we drive past the Parliament, Company Gardens, Slave Lodge, Flower Cellar Jewish Museum, and Bo-Kaap (where we can walk through the streets and try some of the special Malay dishes on offer). We then move on to Table Mountain, Signal Hill, where guests can take the cable car up. We then return to our designated hotels.
