You don’t have to stay in Cape Town, there are trips to African Safari’s although you are looking at a 3 or 4 hour drive from your Cape Town Hotel, but seeing the big 5 animals is an experience in itself. The Big 5 African animals are the Lion, African Elephant, Cape Buffalo, Panther and Black Rhino , this term came originally from game hunters who saw the Big 5 as a challenge, however today they are protected but seeing them in their natural habitats is humbling.If you are into wildlife then look no further than the mountains surrounding Cape Town, and as you are close to the Ocean you can go on trips to swim with sharks. Again, if you don’t mind a drive their is the famous Shark Cage diving in South Africa where you are very likely to see at least one Great White Shark. This is not for the faint hearted and if you don’t what to be face to face with a Great White Shark you can stay on the boat and view the sharks through South Africa’s clear water.If you want to stay in Cape Town there is plenty for you to enjoy including the Table mountain range, this is the iconic mountain that is flat like a table overlooking Cape Town, if you are lucky you will be able to see the clouds rolling over the table top from your Cape Town hotel window.
A Cape Town Hotel gives you the benefit of being in the heart of Africa’s busiest city and you can enjoy talented street performers, such as acrobats, fire eaters, singers and musicians who will entertain you as you explore the city. With hundreds of good restaurants you will be spoiled for choice but on just by the sea you should take advantage of some of the fresh seafood cooked to perfection by local chefs.All in all Cape Town has something for everyone and at an affordable price, so book into your Cape Town Hotel to enjoy everything South Africa has to offer!
