You might be spoiled for choice knowing that you only have two hours to spend in Cape Town! The coastal capital of South Africa is one of our top destinations and for good reasons: the landscape and the weather would make you want to stay there for as long as possible. We spoke to our local photographers and asked for their suggestions on what you could do in the city in only 2 hours.

Go Up Signal Hill

Previously known as The Lion's Flank, the landmark flat-topped hill will allow you to see views over the whole city.

Visit A Beach

Cape Town has a lot of beautiful beaches close by, such as The Atlantic Seaboard and Cape Helderberg.

Drive Along Chapman's Peak Drive

The views are amazing! Cape Town is easily one of the amazing cities in the world, and it has an admirable sense of diversity: the people, the landscape (you have mountains, wine farms and beautiful beaches!) and all the activities the city has to offer.

"Honestly it's so hard to choose just one thing to do in Cape Town. There are so many interesting places visit, yummy foods to try and amazing views to see! You really will have to base it on your own interest." - Chelsey Jade Selby, SweetEscape Photographer in Cape Town

Walk Around The City Center

Maybe pop into one of the local coffee shops for a delicious flat white?

Wine and Dine Time at Camps Bay

Get your delicious dinner at one of the beach front restaurants as the sun is setting over Camps Bay! This is Cape Town and its people in a nutshell: a good meal, a good view and a good bottle of wine.

"I love Cape Town because there is literally something for everyone to enjoy, from world famous views, beautiful and secluded beaches, countless hikes and trail routes, endless wine farms and vineyards, unique and creative markets and galleries, award winning coffee shops and roasteries - this is probably not even half of it! I'm convinced this is the most beautiful city in the world." - Helena Krige, SweetEscape Photographer in Cape Town
