What are the top Cape Town attractions for tourists?

"So, what is something you have to see if you are in Cape Town?"

The list of Cape Town attractions for tourists has an infinite number of variations, given differences in personal taste!

BUT if you were to ask any resident

-- like me ;o) --

for a list of breathtaking Cape Town sight seeing destinations, you'd likely find these on it.

Cape Town really is an incredible family destination...

When I sat down to compile this list, I considered the first classic things to do in Cape Town that sprang to mind. Then I asked myself

"Would I send my friends to do these with kids?"

and yes, I would!

So if you're thinking "Hang on, my kids don't do sight-seeing" -- relax! Neither do mine! But they've been to pretty nearly all the places on my list below and loved them :o)
