Sail to and from Cape Town on the RMS St Helena

Cape Town is one of the world's most beautiful ports, with the grandeur of flat-topped Table Mountain as a background to the famous and picturesque waterfront.

Whether you are travelling northbound or southbound or are taking an island cruise, you spend at least two nights in a 4-star hotel in Cape Town (5-star at a supplementary cost), giving you a little time t explore the beauties of this remarkable city. Why not visit the Stellenbosch vineyrds, the Kirstenbosch botanical gardens or take a drive to Cape Point and its nature reserve.

All this, however is just an aperitif to the spectacular South African hinterland. So while you are here why not make more of your time in South Africa and see some of the unique sights of this beautiful part of the world? We can make special arrangements for you. Whether you simply want to stay for a couple of extra days, take an extended safari holiday or take the Garden Route, you have only to ask our Reservations Department (020 7575 6480). They can book you anything from day tours around the Cape Town environs and the winelands to spectacular tours, safaris and holidays throughout South Africa and the neighbouring countries of Namibia, Botswana, Zimbabwe and Swaziland.
