I feel happy just being there! Thanks for the fab tips Wouter. Definitely off-the-beaten path, though the shark cage dive is starting to become rather mainstream for crazy, thrill-seekers!

Off the beaten track tips: Rent a convertible and drive to Worcester to go sailplane flying. The guys over there love to tkae you up for some Rand. Visit Murati wine estate, not touristic like the others, but it's the oldest and has the wonderful Ansela vd Kaab red wine. Go to Hermanus, take a boat and get submerged in the cage. The Great Whites are waiting for you. Oh dear I really want to go back again. Cheers and tx for the stroll through memory lane. Wouter. Hey Keith,

District 6 and township tours are for anyone who wants to learn about South Africa beyond the gorgeous scenery and delve into its political and social issues. Boulder Beach is phenomenal because of the penguins. Not in Cape Town proper, but a nice 45 minute drive out. Prices there are great too!

Cape Town has SO much to offer and could easily fill 6 pages of what to do. It truly is a city that offers something for everyone! Dorothee Great list Keith :)

I would add a few things:

- Do the open-top sightseeing tour to get an overvie of Cape Town http://www.citysightseeing.co.za/

- Visit the penguins at Boulders Beach on the way to Cape Point

- If you are into arts, go see a play or performance by the Cape Town Philharmonic

- Visit the District 6 Museum and learn why 60,000 people where forcibly removed fromt his area

- Do a township tour with one of the locals http://www.nomvuyos-tours.co.za/
