If you think Cape Town is just about Table Mountain, then you’re only seeing half the canvas.

Here’s why art lovers need to visit the city:

Zeitz MOCAA: Housed in an extraordinary converted grain silo, this is the world’s largest museum of contemporary African art.

Woodstock Street Art: An outdoors gallery where colourful murals tell the city’s vibrant stories.

The Norval Foundation: An art museum where high end sculpture meets indigenous gardens and Constantia wine country.

First Thursdays: Every month, the city centre stays open late and transforms into a massive gallery hop and street party.

While the views from Table Mountain are legendary, the true heartbeat of Cape Town lies in its vibrant and beautiful culture.

Here is why culture vultures should head to the Mother City:

A Rainbow of History: From the brightly painted Bo Kaap neighbourhood to the profound history of Robben Island, every street corner tells a story of resilience and heritage.

The Art Beat: Whether getting lost in the world class Zeitz MOCAA or discovering hidden street art in Woodstock, the creative energy is electric.

A Feast for the Senses: Cape Town's culture is best served on a plate. It s a melting pot of Cape Malay spices, world renowned vineyards, and contemporary African cuisine.

The Rhythm of Jazz: No cultural deep dive is complete without the Cape Town International Jazz Festival. Every year the largest music event in sub Saharan Africa transforms the city into a global stage.

The "Green Season" is nature's ultimate nursery.

Here's why it is best for baby animal sightings:

The Big Arrival: The rains trigger a "birth boom," so wobbly legged foals and tiny calves everywhere you look.

Nutritious Landscapes: Lush, emerald grass is the perfect high energy snack for growing babies (and makes for stunning photo backdrops).

The Circle of Life: More newborns mean more predator action. It s nature at its rawest.

Quiet Moments: Fewer tourists means better quality sightings, often at a great price.

Found in the heart of Zimbabwe’s Hwange National Park, Somalisa Camp is the ultimate "Land of the Giants" experience.

This is why we love it:

The Famous "Elephant Pool“
Somalisa’s legendary watering hole brings the herds to just a few feet from the viewing deck. Imagine sipping your coffee whilst a bull elephant takes his drink right in front of you an eye to eye experience.

Sustainable Soul
As Zimbabwe's first Gold certified green camp, Somalisa offers eco luxury without compromise. It walks the walk, with copper roll top baths, wood burning stoves and a 100% solar powered footprint.

Private Wilderness
Located on a private concession, guests enjoy exclusive access to Hwange’s lions, leopards and rare African wild dogs. All without the crowds of other vehicles.

The Art of the Walk
Somalisa’s world class guides take you out on foot, teaching you to read the "morning newspaper" written in the tracks and signs of the bush. It’s raw, thrilling and deeply grounding.

Step back in time at the "Grand Old Lady of the Falls.”

There’s many reasons why the Victoria Falls Hotel is one of Africa’s most iconic hotels. It’s where Edwardian elegance meets the raw power of the Zambezi.

Why we love it:

Unbeatable Location & Views: Situated within the National Park, it offers views of the Zambezi River and the Victoria Fall’s spray, with guests able to enjoy a short private shortcut down to the Falls.

Historic Charm & Atmosphere: Built in 1904 the hotel retains a classic Edwardian feel think manicured lawns, sepia photographs and refined decor, all combining to offer a luxury experience.

World Class Service: Experience the famous "white glove" hospitality. From the impeccably dressed valets to the attentive poolside staff, the service is legendary; warm, personal and timeless.

High Tea Tradition: A definite must do. Silver service, cucumber sandwiches and scones on the lawns, all whilst warthogs casually graze just a few feet away.
