Join a half-day Cape Town city tour to visit the majestic Table Mountain, the Castle of Good Hope Museum, and the District Six Museum. Learn about the history of the city and its people as you explore these iconic landmarks.
Start your tour at the District Six Museum (ticket not included), dedicated to the history of District Six, a once-thriving, multicultural neighborhood that was forcibly cleared under apartheid. Learn about the impact of forced removals and see a large floor map where former residents can mark their old homes.
Next, make your way to the Castle of Good Hope Museum. The Castle of Good Hope is the oldest surviving colonial building in South Africa, located in Cape Town.
