Cape Town Robben Island Historical Day Tour

The best of what to do in Cape Town combined on this day tour. Travelers learn the history of South Africa through a visit to Robben Island. This is a rare opportunity to follow the footsteps of the world statesman Nelson Mandela and have photos taken right in his former cell.
Learn about the social ill of apartheid and how it affected the ex-political prison fighters and the majority at large. A visit to this island lays bare all the social ills currently faced in the country and how far the country has gone in entrenching forgiveness among the general populace.

The outstanding views of the city of Cape Town and Table Mountain from Robben Island are something one can never forget. A visit to the wineries is so relaxed and makes you forget about the bad history of the country. It is something special since it is done in the most relaxed environment than any other tour. There is also an opportunity to learn the history of South Africa with the coming of the Dutch being central.
