We ALL know of the good ol’ list of “must” things to do in Cape Town, these are seen in lit-erally every  single magazine, , article, social media, need we go on.. So, being the fun team we are, we thought up a list of inspiring, unique things for you to do in the beautiful Town of the Cape:

Clay Cafe

Tucked into the valley of Hout Bay, a visit to this new establishment makes for an inspirational day filled with creativity and recreation, for all ages! First, you choose a clay pottery piece, and then sift through a wide selection of colorful paints and tools to create crockery that is both personal and completely unique. Spend a leisurely few hours painting in a relaxed environment whilst you enjoy one of their many farm style breakfasts or lunches.  Booking is essential and costs may vary.

Sleep on top of Table Mountain

The exciting overnight hike at Table Mountain National Park begins at Kirstenbosch and makes scenic stops at the historic Waterworks Museum, the old reservoir, and a rock formation called “the diving board” which makes the perfect spot for that mid-hike photo shoot. Have a peaceful night’s sleep at the Overseers cottage and wake up feeling rejuvenated and ready for the day!
Cost: R 2 695 (per person for 4 people), R 2 595 (per person for 5 people), R 2 350 (per person for 6 or more people)

Enjoy a gourmet picnic and an outdoor movie, during the Summer season at Spier Wine Farm.

Cost: R100 (adult movie ticket), R70 (child movie ticket), R550 (gourmet picnic basket for two, excludes cost of movie tickets)

Hot air balloon over the cape Wine lands

Regular, boring transport not your style? Take it up a notch and hop onto a hot air balloon with Winelands Ballooning.  Winelands Ballooning operates between 20 November and 2 May each year.
Only one flight is scheduled per day, with four people permitted per flight. We recommend the best time to balloon is March, since the weather conditions in are generally quite stable during this time.

Cost: R3 900 – R4 300 (adult, depending on season), R2 800 – R3 200 (children 8 –12 years, depending on season)
Includes tea and coffee on arrival, one-hour hot-air balloon flight, ground crew recovery and a full breakfast at the Grande Roche Hotel in Paarl. Please note Hot-air balloon trips can be cancelled on short notice if conditions are deemed unsuitable

Paddle with Penguins in Simon’s Town

Why watch these waddling beauties from afar at Boulder’s Bay when you can get up close and personal whilst kayaking? Pop into Simon’s Town and give Kayak Tours a visit.

Cost: R300 per person (drinking water and equipment included). Please note that this is Weather Dependent

We hope that this list inspired you to experience the Mother City in a different way on your next holiday! Seize the Day!
