What to do in Cape Town

Popular things to do while in Cape Town

• Shop for organic produce, baked goods (gluten-free / vegan etc), have a meal/drink/coffee at the Oranjezicht Market situated next to the V&A Waterfront. Opening times on the website.
  
• Climb Lion’s Head or Table Mountain. Wear sports shoes, take water, sunblock, stay on the path, go early and all that sensible stuff. Or take the cable car up Table Mountain. I also propose that visitors do this at the beginning of their stay, as the weather in Cape Town can be very unpredictable and you might not get the chance again.
  Some of the routes to climb Table Mountain:
  Platteklip
  Kasteelspoort
  Woody Ravine
  Corridor Ravine
  
• A tour of the Cape Peninsula and Boulders Penguin Colony. Cape Point is situated 60 kilometers South East of Cape town. You can self drive or go in a group or private tour.
