A wonderfully intriguing tour of Cape Town’s history and culture highlighting the raw energy of this ‘Rainbow Nation’ and culminating in a fascinating visit to Robben Island, the prison home of Nelsen Mandela for 27 years.

The day begins with a visit to the cobbled streets, brightly coloured houses and mosques of the Bo Kaap (Malay Quarter) and then continue to the District Six Museum, which documents the tragic disintegration of this once-vibrant community by the Apartheid Government. Experience a slice of township life in Langa  - the oldest Apartheid housing scheme in the Western Cape and Guguletu including the opportunity to visit a shebeen (pub!). Contemplate this land of contrasts over lunch in the Victoria and Alfred Waterfront district before embarking on a three-hour cruise of the bay and visit to Robben Island to follow in the footsteps of Nelsen Mandela.
