Current parents Anthony Draper and Peter Gain, who invest globally in venture capital, offer their top tips for exploring South Africa’s capital.
06.00
Start the day with a sunrise hike
Cape Town is famous for Table Mountain, but beside it is the smaller Lion’s Head, which has the profile of a lion. We love the peak at sunrise to enjoy the view right across the peninsular.
09.00
Breakfast at the Oranjezicht City Farm Market
With almost 60 stalls, this food market at the Waterfront spoils you for choice. We like a green juice and a breakfast roll with eggs and bacon before a stroll down Muizenberg Beach.
14.00
Visit the penguins at Simon’s Town
After fish and chips at Kalky’s, we always visit the Jackass penguins at Boulders Beach. Yes, it’s super touristy, but it’s one of only three mainland spots in Africa where you can see them.
17.30
Coast along the Chapman’s Peak Drive
We get goosebumps here, one of the most spectacular drives anywhere in the world, just a few hundred metres above the sea. Stopping at Tintswalo Hotel after for sundowners is a must.
22.00
Dance into the Cape Town night
We like to wind down with after-dinner cocktails and a dance at Boma on Bree Street. They have a secret cocktail bar in the basement – it’s the place everyone is talking about at the moment.
