Cape Town is a gem of a city. It is a truly multifaceted haven for anyone who visits and those who call it home. Its mixture of vivacious nightlife, provincial charm, and breathtaking landscapes offers something for everyone. It is as romantic as it is adventurous, historic as it is cosmopolitan. In Cape Town, a typical day might look like this: hop on a cable car in the morning and watch the sun come up from the top of Table Mountain, take a relaxing stroll through the Botanical Gardens in the afternoon, and end the day with some fine shopping and dining on the Victoria and Alfred Waterfront. And if this itinerary sounds too tame for you, adventure seekers will find plenty of surfing, windsurfing, and skin-diving along the coast. There is not much you can’t do in this South African capital. However, don’t think of Cape Town as merely a tourist attraction. All of the city’s wonderful features have roots in its fascinating past and much of Cape Town exists today because somebody had to fight for it. This audio guide offers some pertinent information to help you get around the "Mother City" with ease.
