What to expect

  1. Long March to Freedom
    1h 30m · Admission ticket included
    Soon after your hotel pick up from your hotel by a qualified tour guide, you will be taken to the newly "The Long March to Freedom" which used to have its home in Pretoria. The newly Long March to Freedom has a new home in Cape Town in Century city. This is the Long March to Freedom, part of a bigger development of over 500 life-size bronze icons of South Africa's struggle for freedom. All the figures together represent a timeline of South Africa's 350-year journey to democracy. It is the largest outdoor sculptural display of individuals in the world and uses public art to celebrate the country's heritage while giving visitors the opportunity to learn about South African history in an unusual and entertaining way.
  2. Robben Island Museum
    4h · Admission ticket included
    Our second leg of the trip will be a ferry trip to Robben Island and the entire boat trip including the prison tour to the time when you will return to the starting point will be 3 to 4 hours. Your tour guide will not escort you as Robben Island Museum has its own tour guides and most of them are former political prisoners on the Island. These are some of the facts you never knew about Robben Island.
    1. Robben Island is known for being the place former South African president Nelson Mandela was jailed for 18 of his 27 years, but the Island was the home of prisoners from outside South Africa, notably Namibia.

    There are plenty of free-roaming African Penguins At the Island. Upon return, you will be taken back to your hotel
  3. V&A Waterfront
    1h
    You could have your lunch at a restaurant nearby at Victoria and Alfred Mall or go shopping. Situated in South Africa's oldest working harbor, the 123 hectares (300 acres) area has been developed for mixed-use, with both residential and commercial real estate. The Waterfront attracts more than 23 million visitors a year.
