Cape Town is city that makes an ideal environment for tourists.

Canal Walk in Century City is every shopper's paradise - a mall with hundreds of designer label stores, boutiques, specialist retail stores, and even an indoor flea market. Greenmarket Square has an outdoor flea-market where one can buy souvenirs, arts and crafts, clothing that is uniquely Capetownian and from other countries in Africa. Restaurants and sidewalk cafes are also a speciality here so that you can sit down for a drink or a meal in the afternoon.
The Optima Holidays website offers a variety of accommodation for you to choose; your choice, of course, will depend on where in the city you would like to stay and what sort of activities you prefer. If it is golf that you love then the Atlantic Beach Golf Estate which is found close to the Paarl and Stellenbosch wine farms is a fantastic option for a relaxing holiday that keeps you in a remote location from which the city is still easily accessible. The resort also features its own gym, swimming pool and tennis courts.
Another resort you could choose for you and your group to stay at is the Bantry Bay Resort which can be found along the coastline upon which the cool Atlantic water's waves crash.
