Welcome to our Cape Town South Africa Guide where you'll find personal advice from my kids for yours!

If you've found us, you've as good as arrived in the Mother City already...

Would you like to know which silky, white beaches have water that's tooooo cold for your kids to even paddle in comfortably?

Do the vineyards and mountains beckon but you're pressed for time and overwhelmed by all the choices?

We'll happily share our knowledge about everything Cape Town - we know something about most things around here!

From getting around to sight-seeing and fun things to do (boat trips... penguins... wildlife... surfing, you name it) and even the mind-boggling (and often-times exorbitant) accommodation options available to you.

How do you decide WHERE to stay, never mind the choice between a decent hotel, a guest house, a plush timeshare, a villa? Stick with us, we may even agree to disgorge some well kept CapeTown secrets ;-)

We're able to offer a unique peek into Cape Town travel and life.

This is truly an outstanding place to holiday. In fact we find aspects of Cape Town family life pretty much like a holiday too.

Let our dedicated team of travel researchers show you around :-)

Psssst! The slide show may take a little while to load, but it's worth the wait!
