South Africa with Victoria Falls

To have a better understanding of this mother city in South Africa, our Cape Town tours will lead you to go sightseeing the scenic spots including the military museum, Castle of Good Hope and the Cape Town City Hall in baroque style. Then, we will go to Bo-Kaap with a stopover at St. George's Cathedral and pass by Company Gardens in midway. Bo-Kaap is also called Cape Malay Quarter and is the cultural center of Cape Town.

It is the landmark of the city and reputed as one of the Seven Natural Wonders in the world which attracts a lot of tourists to take pictures. If weather permits, we can take the cable car to its flat peak to overlook the city. Today's last stop is Robbin Island, the jail where Nelson Mandela was prisoned in for 18 years. The guides there used to be the political prisoners or the guard of the jail and they will introduce its history from their own viewpoints and memories.
