Aboard Silver Spirit with Silversea Cruises
Cruise Overview
Sometimes referred to as the Mother City, Cape Town is the most famous port in South Africa and is influenced by many different cultures, including Dutch, British and Malay.
The port was founded in 1652 by Dutch explorer Jan Van Riebeeck, and evidence of Dutch colonial rule remains throughout the region.
The port is located on one of the world's most important trade routes, and is mainly a container port and handler of fresh fruit.
Fishing is another vital industry, with large Asian fishing fleets using Cape Town as a logistical repair base for much of the year.
The region is famous for its natural beauty, with the imposing Table Mountain and Lions Head, as well as the many nature reserves and botanical gardens such as Kirstenbosch which boasts an extensive range of indigenous plant life, including proteas and ferns.
Cape Town's weather is mercurial, and can change from beautiful sunshine to dramatic thunderstorms within a short period.
A local adage is that in Cape Town you can experience four seasons in one day.
