How do you sum up a city like Cape Town<\/a>? A place where incredible history and cosmopolitan tastes mingle, the mountains echo with the call of exploration, and the food tells a story of its own, to know Cape Town is to love it. And exploring really is the best way of getting to know this fabulous city, so we\u2019ve put together a list of our top 10 activities in Cape Town to inspire your trip-planning.

<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"top<\/a>
Go kayaking in Cape Town<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Kayaking & Table Mountain<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Start your morning right (and just like a local) with a stroll along the Sea Point Promenade, stopping for coffee before hopping into a double kayak. Paddle along the Atlantic Seaboard, keeping your eyes peeled for dolphins, seals, penguins and (if you\u2019re really lucky) the occasional whale, while soaking up splendid views of Lion\u2019s Head and the Twelve Apostles as you glide past. Or, if you would prefer to remain on dry land, a gentle cycle past the promenade\u2019s art installations is an excellent alternative.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Next up, the magnificent Table Mountain awaits. Choose between a ride on the rotating cable car or tackle the challenging yet scenic hike to the summit. At the top, you\u2019ll be rewarded by panoramic views of the city and ocean below, before wandering across the plateau to spot rare fynbos and hopping dassies (rock rabbits). Descend for a well-deserved lunch at one of the world-class eateries on Bree or Kloof Street.

<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"top<\/a>
See the colourful houses of Bo Kaap<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Explore the Bo-Kaap & cooking class<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

If your picture of Cape Town<\/a> includes those iconic, pastel-hued houses, then the Bo-Kaap should definitely be on your experience list. Dating as far back as the 17th century, its cobblestone streets are lined with ornate mosques, spice markets, artisanal shops, and enormous, vibrant murals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Bo-Kaap area is also known for its unique and delicious Cape Malay cuisine. Make a stop at Lekka Kombuis, where you\u2019ll be welcomed into one of the oldest homes in the area for a fun and interactive cooking lesson. Learn to make a traditional curry, rotis, chilli bites and sambal \u2013 and the best way to fold a samosa.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"top<\/a>
Go on a wine tasting tour in Constantia<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Wine tasting in Constantia<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The oldest wine region in the southern hemisphere, the Constantia Valley is a mecca for oenophiles from all over the world. Producing wines that have been the favourites of royals and celebrities alike, this lush corner of pretty vineyards and oak trees on the Cape Peninsula is well worth a visit. On a private tour, you\u2019ll enjoy walks and tastings at three fabulous wine farms: Groot Constantia, Klein Constantia and Buitenverwachting. Over the course of the day, you\u2019ll have the chance to sample 10 wines surrounded by staggering mountain views, getting a genuine feel for what makes Constantia so special.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"top<\/a>
Take a drive along the Cape Peninsula<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Discover the Cape Peninsula<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Led by a local guide who knows all the nooks and crannies of the Cape Peninsula, your day begins in the boho town of Kalk Bay, where you\u2019ll wander the high street of antique shops, galleries and artisan stalls, and watch the brightly coloured boats and raucous seals at the waterfront. Move on to Simon\u2019s Town for a brief history lesson before seeking out a splinter colony of the area\u2019s famous penguins on a secluded beach \u2013 usually known only by locals. Then, have a go at stand-up paddleboarding or kayaking, or enjoy an enlightening walk with a penguin conservationist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Your adventure continues at the Cape of Good Hope with a gentle hike along hidden beaches, shipwrecks and through the unique flora \u2013 look out for the Cape Five (ostrich, baboons, mountain zebra, bontebok and tortoises). A picnic lunch of tasty goodies will be set up on the beach – and dessert has to be from Kristen\u2019s Kick Ass Ice Cream in Noordhoek Farm Village, followed by a drive back to the city via the scenic Chapman\u2019s Peak. And of course, sundowners in a secret spot are a given\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"top<\/a>
Explore the historic Robben Island<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Private tour of Robben Island<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Ride the ferry across Table Bay toward Robben Island, and listen to your guide telling stories of Cape Town\u2019s<\/a> past as you gaze upon the cityscape from a totally new perspective. After landing at Robben Island, a UNESCO World Heritage Site where freedom fighters were held prisoner during apartheid, you\u2019ll embark on a private tour led by Christo Brand. The former prison guard and close friend of Nelson Mandela, he offers amazing insights into the island and its history as you explore the limestone quarry, leper cemetery and even Mandela\u2019s cell itself.

Whether you\u2019re a total novice or an avid surfer, Muizenberg is one of the top spots for surfing in Cape Town<\/a>. Your day will begin with a look around the WAWA surf shop, where they build wooden boards inspired by the ingenuity of Hawaiian board builders. For beginners, a seasoned surfer will show you the ropes before you set off to chase the swells around the Peninsula. Perfect for surfers of all abilities, Kommetjie is a definite highlight and there\u2019s plenty of beach breaks, points and reefs to discover.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n

After an auspicious start, the rest of the day will be entirely tailored to your interests whether you fancy the meaningful installations at the Norval Foundation or the avant-garde WHATIFTHEWORLD creations.

Entirely based on your interests, the tour could take you on a stroll through Company\u2019s Garden, around the famed Greenmarket Square, and through the halls of the District 6 Museum. Along the way, you\u2019ll gain incredible insight into Cape Town\u2019s journey through colonialism, resistance and resilience, including the moment Nelson Mandela made his first speech as a free man.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"top<\/a>
Visit the famous Clifton Beach in Cape Town<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Spend the day on Clifton Beach<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Actually a collection of four fabulous enclaves of sandy bliss, Clifton is undoubtedly the darling of Cape Town<\/a> beaches. Famously protected from Cape Town\u2019s south-easterly wind, you couldn\u2019t pick a better spot to spend the day sunbathing, picnicking or braving the chilly Atlantic waters. Their blindingly-white sands and exclusive feel make Clifton beaches one of the best places for a beach break \u2013 and it doesn\u2019t hurt that they\u2019re supremely photogenic too.<\/p>\n\n\n
