This handy guide to the diverse attractions Cape Town has to offer takes the form of an alphabetical listing, beginning with 'Adderley Street' and ending with 'Zeekoevlei'. It includes not only the spectacular natural features most visitors want to explore - such as Table Mountain, Cape Point and various wonderful beaches - but takes in scenic routes around the peninsula, interesting museums, historic gardens, unique cultural enclaves and activities for children. Annual events, art and craft fairs, markets, festivals and theatres are all listed, as are shopping precincts, eateries that have become firm Cape Town institutions over the years, grand hotels and wine estates. Each entry features a concise description, opening hours and accurate contact details (including websites). A useful grading system is employed to distinguish between must-see top priorities for the traveller with little time and those that can be explored at more leisure. Also included is a separate categorised listing of all entries grouped by activity type - a quick-reference guide to specific interests. Two informative maps show the reader where the listed attractions can be found.
Exceptionally user-friendly and portable, Cape Town A-Z is an indispensable guide for any outing in the beautiful Mother City.
