You may decide to take part in the Arrow Face walk, the Valley of the Red God’s walk or the Devil’s Peak walk, and there are many others to choose from.

There are even viewing platforms or points where you can stand and watch the magnificent view of Cape Town from above.

Also included on the side of the map is an enlarged street map of Cape Town’s city centre. This shows the different museums found in the city, historical sites, points of interests and embassy offices.

It is a perfect guide whether you are visiting Cape Town for the first time or have lived here all your life, if you do need to get around then car hire Cape Town would be an excellent option.
