Cape Town is the holiday destination with the ' Wow Factor' where everything is possible, South Africa is truly a country of miracles - an energetic, vibrant place whose 'can do' attitude will surprise, inspire and uplift. Cape Town is best discovered on foot! South Africa's mother city was founded in 1652 as a ship's supply base by Jan van Riebeek. The city spreads out in front of Table Mountain, which rises more than 1000m high, flanked by the Devil's Peak in the east and Signal Hill in the west. The Victoria & Albert Waterfront, where the apartment is situated, is not to be missed, with its shops, bars, restaurants, luxury hotels and street entertainers. Boat trips round the harbour and many tours are offered.
