We will be in Cape Town for 5 nights. We are a family of four(couple and teenaged boys) We wish to see the city center, Southern suburbs andTable Mountains, Atlantic Sea Board, Blaauwberg Coast, Peninsula and if possible Helderberg. Which area should we keep as a base? We would be entering CT through the Garden route. Thank you for your time, Seetha
eetha for your needs I would stick around near cbd. Gardens area is nice, but areas in Southern Suburbs also great, All near train stations. Newlands, Claremont- all great shopping & resturant areas, The Waterfront area has some wonderful hotels, a BIT pricey but near all the action, day and night.

Hi Seetha, will you have the hire car with you while in Cape Town?
If yes, then I suggest you get a little out of the inner city area because of parking problems at night.
If no, then best to stay near public transport.
Let us know your plans re car.

I have managed to find a place Gerald, thank you. Not planning to have a car in Cape Town but will have on for the Garden route.
almost all bookings made except in garden route which i do not want to do beforehand but decide then and there. I just have to finalise a car rental company.
am so sorry about your problem with extra charges and tax policies in India!!

Charges & tax policies is not a problem - I just used that to show you that over here you can trust the menu to give you the final figure. (There are very rare cases where a 10% service charge is added)
My experience in some other countries is that various charges are dreamed up when you look like a tourist - I hope that doesn't happen to you here.
