Tour & Travel Packages to Cape Town

When on the streets you may hear a great variety of languages in all its shops, European fashion boutiques, art galleries and luxury hotels. In summer the city attracts famous people as a lot of shows and festivals are held there due to its readiness to accept quests and high-rate service.

Despite such a bright picture of the city life and development there are still serious problems there and the ever-visible legacy of apartheid is one of them.

There is an area called District Six or Zonnebloem at the foot of Table Mountain which used to be populated by the local mixed-race community known as 'Cape coloureds', who were forced to leave it. The city government is planning to start building of houses there.

Even today it is difficult to find a lot of non-whites living in the most prosperous regions, though construction of not very expensive houses is underway due to successful economic situation.

Nevertheless, Cape Town amazes by its natural beauty: white-sand beaches and pretty towns and mansions supplementing each other, the Table Mountain National Park, the Overberg, the Southern Cape and the Cedarberg are worth visiting and seeing.
