- pat37 contributionsA kilometer above the stunning city of Cape Town, the magnificent mountain puts on a breathtaking view. The 2-hour queue was worth it, and provided a good opportunity to chat to visitors from other parts of the world. The staff was helpful and pleasant, and kept things moving along. An experience not to be missed.Written 10 December 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.

From the cold water dippers to the long distance swimmers, the canoeists, and even the lifeguards doing push-ups, not to mention the beautiful people working on their tans, it’s most entertaining. The soft wide beach is comfortable and not too crowded. You can hire loungers and umbrellas, and cool drinks and ice creams are available - they come to you! The other beaches are smaller and quieter, which is also great.Written 10 December 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- kansasbirdBucerias, Mexico284 contributionsThis aquarium is larger than it seems and has a nice variety of fish and penguins. Good value for the price, and very family friendly.Written 13 October 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- James CSingapore, Singapore60 contributionsWe (family of 4 with young kids) visited Bo Kaap - having lunch then went for a walk to the colourful houses then back to V&A Waterfront. It is worthwhile seeing the colourful houses, especially along Wale Street where the shop and craft markets are which is more touristy and safer as they have officials on patrol to keep people safe.
Walking back from the main tourist area to V&A waterfront (away from the security personnel), it definitely becomes more challenging. We were approached 4 times by rough looking people for money. It all ended well but in hindsight it would be better to take an uber there, then an uber back to avoid any potential issues.Written 16 October 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- creativestartravelLondon, UK2 001 contributionsHad a pleasant stroll on the beach, at the weekends there are more visitors and overall I had a nice few hours just chilling out. In comparison to when I first visited this area, it has changed a lot and not always for the nicest of reason. Overall, I would come back again as this is a nice Bay Area and beach to visit.Written 18 May 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- John de MeloJohannesburg, South Africa29 contributionsNice spot. Really cool stores and shops. Worth a visit. Lovely genuine well. Loved the SA curio shop and the Expresso Lab - super funky and worth a visit. Food honestly on the high end money spectrum...Written 1 September 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Jacqueline J3 contributionsA beautiful beach, for those from the uk, it may feel reminiscent of Cornwall, it did for me. Although the weather was a tad more pleasing. Surfy vibe, beautiful clean white sand and no sun loungers and parasols to be found anywhere! There are lovely little cafes and eateries in a quaint boho village setting, and an outdoor pool, a water slide and mini golf and play park to entertain children. A great place for a visit when in capetown .Written 6 December 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.

- Sherry096732 contributionsWe had a fantastic 2 night trip. Everyone was very attentive and friendly. All the meals were lovely.
The 4 game drives were made even more enjoyable by Johannes and his humour and vast knowledge! Loved seeing the "Donkeys in Pyjamas"!
Sehliselo was lovely every time we were in her company and could not do enough for us, including helping describe desserts!
The only reason for the 4 not 5 stars is I personally feel that due to the location that soft drinks/water should have been included in the price with a meal. I fully understand charging for alcohol but you can hardly just nip to the shops in this location!
Other than that minor issues I enjoyed my 2 nights very much.Written 20 November 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Our guide gave us the history of the gardens, as well as a great overview of the trees and plants within it. We enjoyed our time here; however, without our guide I don't know if we would have gotten as much out of our visit, since he was very knowledgeable about everything within the gardens.Written 13 July 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- PepsinpinnerPinner, UK109 contributionsWandered around this market, full of the usual sellers of carved, painted and printed gifts. Some nice things that are more obviously hand made, some more likely mass produced. It’s exactly what you’d expect it to be.Written 29 November 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
