Fly from UK to
Cape Town
Explore the beautiful city of Cape Town where you’ll participate in a cooking safari in the city’s vibrant Malay Quarter, including a walking tour of this fascinating area and a look at the Cape Georgian-style homes. Learn about Asian spices, and create your own curry, then indulge in a sizzling meal of samosas and roti, ending with a sticky koeksister, which is like a long, thin doughnut. Aside from all the eating, you’ll also take a look around Cape Town itself, ascending Table Mountain for sweeping city and ocean views or taking a boat to Robben Island to learn about the infamous prison.
