Lonely Planet Cape Town City Guide

Get the best possible introduction to the Mother City of South Africa, with Lonely Planet’s Cape Town Cityguide on your iPhone. Clutching at the skirts of striking Table Mountain, famous for its beaches, vineyards, galleries and nightlife, this city is one of the highlights of Africa, and our authors have found the best it has to offer. Whether it’s trekking in Hoerikwaggo national park, getting a feel for the colour of life in the Bo-Kaap, or a winery tour in Hermanus, the world’s leading guidebook publisher is your essential companion.

OK, so you’ve dived with sharks off the Cape, checked out the Victorian architecture of Muizenberg and worn out your camera on different angles of the mountain; what next? Why not check your location on our dynamic maps, and find the nearest place to sample Cape Malay cuisine? Or dial up a tour through neighbourhoods as diverse as ritzy Camps Bay and the township of Khayelitsha? Perhaps the famous seafood of the Cape is your fancy? We’ll help you find the freshest kinglip and snoek at Kalk Bay fish market. And if you’re just knackered, we’ve reviewed hundreds of the best places to stay, for all budgets. And don’t stress about roaming connection costs: our Cityguides are fully stand-alone apps. Wonderbaarlik!
