South Africa - Cape Town

South Africa calls itself ’a world in one country’ and it’s certainly true of the region around Cape Town. The Cape area has so many attributes – a great destination for the adventurous, high quality of accommodation, incredible scenery – and the big blue skies of Africa give an overwhelming feeling of space.

The southern hemisphere is the opposite to us seasonally, with December-March being glorious summer. As Christmas and January are the school holidays in South Africa and a busy travel time, we particularly recommend February or March for a visit, when the weather is generally in the 80s with low humidity, making what many consider the perfect climate.

With its sights and sounds, Cape Town makes an attractive destination and a great escape from the British winter.
