Cape Town Big 6 - One Destination, 6 Unforgettable Experiences. www.instagram.com/ctbig6 CAPE TOWN BIG 6. ONE DESTINATION. SIX UNFORGETTABLE EXPERIENCES.

A visit to Cape Town simply isn’t going to be complete without visiting each of the Cape Town Top 6 Attractions: Soar to the top of Table Mountain via the Table Mountain Aerial Cableway, our own natural wonder; shop, dine and be entertained at the most popular tourism attraction in the country at V&A Waterfront; take a quiet walk through one of the world’s most beautiful gardens at Kirstenbosch; explore the tradition and finest w**es in the historic setting of Groot Constantia; visit the true symbol of freedom with a tour of Robben Island; and experience the dramatic scenery at Cape Point, perched on the most south-western point of Africa. The Cape Town Big 6 is the official marketing collaboration of these six iconic tourism destinations in and around Cape Town.

Ever wonder what it’s like to experience Robben Island beyond the history books?

Being there brings a different perspective. You walk through the spaces, hear the stories connected to them and begin to understand the history in a way that a page or photograph can’t always capture.

It’s about more than looking back. It’s also about the stories of resilience, courage and hope that continue to shape how Robben Island is remembered today.

Some history needs to be experienced in the place where it happened.

You can see Table Mountain from half of Cape Town. But when was the last time you actually went up?

It’s easy to let the mountain become part of the scenery, something you photograph from the road, from the beach or through the car window.
So change the view.

Take the Cableway up, wander one of the pathways at the top and give yourself enough time to forget about the next thing on your schedule.

Cape Town looks very different when you’re standing above it.

Cape Point is pretty good at reminding us that nature doesn’t need much from us, just a little respect 🌿.

Stay on the paths, give the wildlife space, take your rubbish with you and leave the reserve looking the way you found it.

Small things, but they make a difference when we’re all helping to look after a place this wild.

If Table Mountain isn’t on your Cape Town bucket list, consider this your reminder 🇿🇦🚠.

From the city bowl to the coastline and Robben Island, Table Mountain offers a view that never gets old. Take the Cableway up, explore the summit paths and see the Mother City from a whole new perspective.

This year, both Table Mountain Aerial Cableway and Table Mountain have been nominated in the 2026 World Travel Awards in the categories World’s Leading Cable Car and World’s Leading Tourist Attraction.

Two nominations, one iconic Cape Town experience. Be sure to cast your votes! ✔️

Voting is open until 30 October.

A great meal can become one of the things you remember most about a day out. 🍽️

For International Chefs Day, we’re giving a little extra credit to the chefs who bring creativity, skill and plenty of flavour to the Groot Constantia experience.

With Simon’s Restaurant and Jonkershuis both on the estate, there’s good reason to make lunch part of the visit too.

Here’s to the people behind the plates. 🍷

Not every great day needs a plan.

Sometimes it's a slow walk through the gardens, finding a quiet bench, and realising you've spent an hour doing absolutely nothing productive... and loving every minute of it.

Kirstenbosch National Botanical Garden has a way of reminding us to slow down. 🌿

What is your favourite spot in the garden?

Platteklip Gorge earns every bit of that summit view 🥾.

It’s the most direct route to the top of Table Mountain, with a steep, steady climb that gives you plenty of reasons to stop, catch your breath and look back over Cape Town and Table Bay.
The reward comes when you reach the top, and the city opens up below you.

If you’re planning the hike, take enough water, prepare for changing weather and remember that the Cableway can close unexpectedly when conditions change.

Have you conquered Platteklip Gorge?

Family time looks a little different as we get older.

It becomes less about filling the day and more about having enough time to sit, talk and enjoy being together🍷.

Groot Constantia gives you plenty of room for that. Walk through the estate, explore its history, stay for lunch and, following International Pinotage Day, make time for a Pinotage tasting while you’re there. Groot Constantia currently produces its own Pinotage.

Who would you bring along for the afternoon?
