Cape Town

Private and Semi-Private Guided Tours

Cape Town is a port city cradled in the bay below South Africa's scenic Table Mountain. It has a colorful past with many different incarnations—from ancient indigenous Khoisan settlement to Dutch colony to slave trading hub to multicultural modern democratic state. Off the coast of Cape Town is Robben Island, the former penitentiary where Nelson Mandela was imprisoned for 18 of his 27 years in jail. Today, Cape Town is celebrated for its panoramic views, multicultural energy, and extensive food and wine scenes. Experience Cape Town's vibrancy with Context's private and semi-private guided tours.
