Description

Robben Island and Long Walk To Freedom Historical Full Day Tour. If you’re curious about visiting places linked to the late Nelson Mandela, then this is the tour for you. Save time figuring out public transport options and head off on a tour which begins with pickup from your Cape Town hotel. As well as visiting the life-size statues of The Long March to Freedom, the trip also visits the Robben Island Museum too. Tick off the Long March to Freedom and the Robben Island Museum Hassle-free tour with door-to-door transportation Stay online as you travel: The vehicle has Wi-Fi access Beat long ticket lines: Admission to sights is included. Our third leg of the trip will be a trip to Robben Island and the entire trip including the prison tour to the time when you will return to the starting point will be 3 to 4 hours. Your expert guide-driver will not escort you as Robben Island Museum has its tour guides and most of them are former political prisoners on the Island. There are plenty of free-roaming African Penguins At Robben Island. DISCLAIMER: The ferry to Robben Island is available subject to conducive weather conditions. Should the Robben Island boat trip get cancelled while already on site due to bad weather conditions, the tour will carry on to a long walk to freedom and a refund of the ferry tickets will be issued to you. Our second stop, here you will witness the first-hand, art of diamond cutting and the careful craftsmanship of jewellery manufacturing by our skilled experts. All whilst enjoying a complimentary glass of sparkling wine. (OPTIONAL) 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. Soon after your hotel is picked up by an expertly qualified tour guide driver, you will be taken to the new 'The Long March to Freedom' which used to have its home in Pretoria. 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. Beginning in 1652 with the establishment of the Dutch East India settlement in Cape Town and ending in 1994 with the country's first democratic elections. It is the largest outdoor sculptural display of individuals in the world and uses public art to celebrate the country's heritage while allowing visitors to learn about South African history unusually and entertainingly. All statues featured here must fulfil strict criteria.
